Heads up regarding me saying the red tube light had less colour information on the BM; I totally forgot it has gamut compression ticked as default when capturing BRAW; unticking would have probably fixed that issue. Also, anyone who is having issues registering and not receiving their confirmation email from the newletter, dont worry, the sign-ups are still coming through on my end, just fine.

I had just posted on this then noticed your comment. To me I prefer the Blackmagic on that shot. It reminds me of a similar comparison I saw between a RED and and ARRI a while back. Red colors should be, in my opinion either redish or pinkish in hue. Not yellowish orange with a redish orange glow.

Burano seem to have really bad rolling shutter. It's unacceptable for a camera this expensive. Did you notice that in actual shooting?

@@johnsospencer To be fair, if you shoot 4K on the Burano, it will be the same ~8ms readout like the A7SIII/FX3. That being said, this camera is still very strange compared to much cheaper options, like an FX9 or Venice 1.
Pro tip for any Black Magic shooters. If you go to the slow motion settings that crop into the sensor. Go to Q0 or the best possible compression and look at the difference compared to 8:1. I think those compression algorithms are timebased, so the more frames the more thirsty it is for data. Q0 on the Ursa mini pro at 300 is actually quite good.

Hey OBP. Just curious about the Video Assist. It doesn’t natively support Slog3. Do you have a slog to rec709 lut installed? Do you have a lut enabled in camera that’s transmitting to the monitor? And if so do the exposure tools on the monitor reflect the LOG or the lut
@OBP_
2 ай бұрын
Pretty much yes to all the questions. I load Sonys Slog3 LUT into the monitor because sending it from the camera means false color is being applied to late in the pipe. Works amazing tho and in terms of lower budget monitors there the best I have ever used.
First test mate… BM at 400 ISO means it’s exposed to more light for the same exposure value (if going off a meter) I.e the BM would have to be at F2.0 to the Burano’s F2.8, got to match these settings regardless of native iso ranges, 800 iso on the Burnao makes a demand for less light (camera will do the heavy lifting) which gives it more highlight range, it’s already going to beat the BM anyway but in this setup it was easily going to have more highlights range

I did try a few different ISO's, and while we may have gained a little in highlights at higher ISO the noise in my skin was really bad, I landed on it looked best at 400iso and am guessing thats some of the reason why blackmagic engineers end up making it 400 and not 800 native.
@BampFilm

@@OBP_ it’s more that you’d want the test to be equal, as in the sky blew out quicker on the BM due to the extra stop of exposure needed if the ISO target was 400 over 800. What you found would have been interesting, as in the noise in the skin tones… you also could have lowered the Burano to 400 Ei, might have shown the same highlight roll off but with a stop more in the shadows
Definitely worth more! But maybe...realistically only 3x?
It would be nice to see the log image at 3:55 to see how much information is actually there. The lens you are using on the Burano is flaring more, giving a nice look to the over exposed areas. Highlight roll off can be changed in post as long as the info is there. Does the Burano actually hold more information in the highlights? I think sharpness will be dictated by your lenses and of course the Burano will win being 8K. The Burano definitely does better at high ISO and I would wager it keeps shadow information a bit better.
A fair and wonderful review

Thanks mate
apples and oranges - the real question is in which usage scenarios the burano makes sense when compared to an FX9 or the venice.
The better color and highlight roll off on the Burano is pretty dramatic, as you'd hope for a camera costing that much. I'm very interested in Burano, I just wish the rolling shutter and price were better and that it came with an on camera LCD for controls.

I think the color on the Burano is MUCH WORSE. I know you can grade it… but it looked terrible compared to the Blackmagic here. I think people just want the expensive cameras to have something “magical” about the color, but they just don’t. IMO, BM has the best color next to Arri- regardless of price. To each their own though.

From what I've seen in feature films and in my own experience, rolling shutter is not as big a deal as it's made out to be. Most of the time there is rolling shutter effects, it's usually in the form of a whip pan from one subject to another. If it occurs in an "action scene", I doubt anyone is looking at vertical lines while watching unless the action is extremely boring and they make a point of looking for problems. Another example is "cat's eye" bokeh. Maybe it's an issue for photographers, but, I've seen cat's eye bokeh in feature films and critically acclaimed television shows. Just skimming through one episode of the critically-acclaimed HBO series, "Succession", I found plenty of cat's eye bokeh throughout. So, does it really matter? To some it's a deal breaker. Yet, it doesn't stop shows from receiving critical acclaim and awards.

Great video. Burano colors seem more true to life. That DR stands out as well in those tough lighting conditions. The visual differences are pretty small these days but no doubt as a professional tool on set the burano kills the BM. Worth the price tag only if you are booking the right type of jobs.

Not at all, I think that's entirely the wrong path. They need a better Ursa, in a new form factor (Blackmagic cube camera is basically a meme now). If they made a Full Frame of their 12k sensor (with the same resolution, just bigger pixels) and keep the frame rates and good rolling shutter in a body like the BS1H/Komodo/Zcam in L-mount it would definitely be my next purchase

I’m just gonna point out something I feel nobody else is…. Sony released footage from the burano months earlier and nobody complained about rolling shutter.

@@OBP_ but what I can understand and do agree with is that Sony set a precedent of what their cameras stand for. The fx6, fx3, Venice, all had consistency between them all… and the burano is an outlier. The fx6 didn’t suffer from IR pollution. They all had fast sensor read outs. Sony said the fx lineup was for documentary work, while the Venice is for narrative, with the burano being a blend of the two. But due to its limitations it doesn’t really.
A used panasonic S1H with a, BM video assist is a better camera than the BMPCC 6k.
i really do not get why sony simply can not fix their magenta tones finally they already have some cameras that are better at tht but the cinema stuff ... why? it is of course fixable but a problem from day one
