This is easily the most cinematic security camera footage that I have ever seen. It made me feel like I was in the managers office at a Walmart. ;-)

Aside from no Toneh, every third frame skipping, and the non-availability of compatible SD cards, I think you've made a really sound purchase.

He merely needs to use Sandisk Extreme Pro cards (≥128GB) -- no skipping, cheap and plentiful. UPDATE: It appears that I am incorrect and that the newer Sandisk Extreme Pro cards (170MB/s and probably the 200MB/s) can no longer record raw with the OG BMPCC. To record raw with Sandisk Extreme Pro cards, one has to use the older versions -- 95MB/s. It seems that one of the few new cards that can record raw on the original BMPCC is the Kingston Canvas Select Plus card.

BMPCC regular user here... For $99 Juicebox makes a great all day battery. I've never went below 50% on all day shoots. Use fast lenses only. Under 2... Prores is great for most uses. DNG Raw is gorgeous but overkill for most uses. Kingston SD cards are cheap and work with DNG Raw without any framedropping. A cheap gimbal like the Zhyun Crane 2 takes care of any handheld stability issues and honestly, I just use the old 3-points of contact method or use a Tripod. Not an issue. Samyang and Meike make some incredibly affordable lenses that look spectacular. Just remember the crop factor and keep them fast. Speedboosters are great (and pricey) but eBay has them in droves for pretty cheap. Feelworld monitors are affordable and take care of any flipscreen and for a mic... there's unlimited choices. For audio, I mainly use a Sure Lenshopper shotgun with a built in recorder on top of the BMPCC or the Tascam Lav or Zoom Lavs with the recorders. Tiny, simple, durable and dependable. Hope this helps anyone interested in using this little beast of a camera. It's unlike any other camera out there and for under a grand you have something that really differentiates your footage and gives you the ability to help create a bit of magic. But in the end, the magic is always in the hands of the creator and not the gear...

You need to buy a Canon EOSM running Magic Lantern Raw. Extended workflow, needs sandisk extreme pro cards and eats batteries for lunch. But the footage is amazing once you get the workflow correct.

Be VERY CAREFUL when touching the HDMI cable/connector when it is plugged in. Don't bump it nor push against it to pan the camera. It's best to use one of those flexible, ribbon cable, adapters for gimbals (micro-HDMI to full HDMI) that have a "right-angle" micro-HDMI connector. Additionally, the Metabones speedbooster made specifically for the OG BMPCC is amazing, and it transforms the camera into a Super35/APS-C crop and adds an extra stop of exposure! Watch out for IR pollution, especially in black clothing and when using NDs. There are inexpensive IR cut filters that prevent the problem. As one commenter mentioned, you might need to deal with moire/aliasing. It's not too difficult to avoid, if you are alert.

It is really amazing the kind of image this litlle 13year old tiny thing can produce. This sensor gets as close to film as a sensor can get. This is probably the only camera i will never sell, and when it stops working i wil buy another used one :)

Wtf that raw footage it looks amazing! So much drama... I was expecting to be worse. That movie scene was epic! Good job!!👏👏👏👏

The footage does have a certain charm to it after looking for awhile - excited to see how it looks with great lenses.

Image looks good. Good purchase! Great outdoors video too.

When I saw yesterday's video, I knew you were setting yourself up for a rant.

Coming from someone who loves to buy old tech and experiment with it. I often have to buy older SD cards. I often find deals on refurbished cards. I own the OG Blackmagic pocket. I know that one of the recommended cards is the Sandisk at 95mbs. I have no problem with those when I shot in pro res, but never saw the value is shooting raw and the hassle and storage. Also there is a KZreadr that shows a hack where he was able to hook an external monitor and power the camera off the monitor. Unfortunately I can’t remember his name, but I tried it and it worked. Good luck with the camera!

Not even 3 minutes into the vid and I'm laughing like crazy! Love it!

When oh when will the academy recognise your brilliance?

The wide "cinematic" type external footage looks good.

Photographers are like the children in that park- wandering around, in need of adult supervision, only an elementary school education.

I started using my OG BMPCC in 2018 and hearing you go through all the learning curves with it reminded me of how much I had to go through with it lol. It is a camera made for filmmakers. Using it for anything else is just not feasible.

4:28 - the Canadian vlogger’s version fan old man yelling “get off my lawn”. I don’t usually lol 😆 to your videos but today… 😆😆🤣🤣🤣😆🤣😆👍🏼

Congrats! You have certainly captured the 100 year old Hal Roach cinema.

Welcome to planet frustration 😊 it’s egregious but endearing. Im suitably entertained by your experience so keep on going with it for our benefit if nothing else. I did give you some important info about the SD cards in the comments of your last video, looks like the c mount lens might be the one I have, the Olympus 7-14 is better and there are some Lumix lenses that are commonly used by others . As I mentioned before be careful with that HDMI port and hanging cables off them they break really easily. One bonus with using Davinci Resolve is that you get to use the first tab on the colour page for your incoming video format where you can retrospectively change the iso and other (camera) settings when using CDNG RAW.

Went from square to rectangular in the beginning of the video? Lost a lot of Toneh in the switch. Oh the humanity!!! Such emotion!!

So so so good...loved it.

There are levels of genius here I can't even

So much buyer remorse in this vid , it's overloaded

We're all proud of you for finally going with a device that is made for videography. And I think we're all a little disappointed too. I reckon with the right lenses and set up, this will produce exceptional results. There's a dude in the comments who lists an abundance of items to make the cinema truly yours. Keeping my fingers, toes and even my nuts crossed.

A needy camera, but it will love you back as you show it love. I don't even bother with Raw on mine, since the moiré in small details is ass-nasty. ProRes debayers it nicely. If you're working with color management in Resolve, set your input color space for ProRes clips to Blackmagic film gen 1 and your life will be made easier.

You got the cinema, but what did it cost? "Everything"

“You should have used a Canon cap” 😂😂😂

It’s a great purchase I’ve been debating getting that black magic camera for like 2years now I know I gotta shop for a deal thanks man!!

Lol...can't wait to see the rest of that drama movie, very touching 😂😂 If I were Bud Light I would give you the marketing branch to revive... you could pull that off....easily.😂

I actually think you've created a new cinematic standard with those frame skips - just as the father character is starting to show emotion, the skips accentuate how his mind is skipping back to his younger years when he could walk.

I never laughed so hard at any of your videos as at 9:34 of this one!!! lol 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Best SD card for the OG BMPCC is the Kingston Canvas Select Plus 128GB or higher, works perfect in RAW CDNG, and it's cheap. Also I have a couple cages for the camera, reach out and I'll show you what I have and you can have one, I'll send it to you.

I went down that road, pretty soon with BM. you will want internal ND’s, longer battery life, flip screen, smaller files. that would be a C70 or R5C with the variable ND filter adapter. Renting is an option to check it out for a week. I’m really happy using a C70 and R6 combo It’’s a great learning experience for RAW workflows.

Bravo. A true masterpiece 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

The newer Kingston Canvas Select Plus cards also work well with the BMPCC. When compared to the Canon R footage you can really see how red the prores is, that's probably why a lot of people recommend a IR-cut filter. C-mount lenses are really an unreliable bunch, even with adapters is a crapshot and you can only hope they'll focus to infinity and not vignette you into oblivion.

I think I love the look of that lense

I bought a Canon C300 mk1 including 5 batteries and 2 memory cards for 450 Euros. Technically it's not comparable to modern cams but it's so much fun to shoot with and there is sth special about the image quality. PLus working with these tiny file sizes comes in very handy. :)

Just some hopium for the BMPCC - My channel is pretty much dedicated to the Pocket OG and Micro. I've been able to get the most authentic fly on the wall home video style footage that I can't get with any other camera I've used. This is simply because of yes, the size but also the organic soft image it produces combined with C-Mount lenses that I've modified from the 70s and mounted using a $6 adapter. You can get S16 glass made by respected modern brands like Cooke, Angenieux and other relatively cheap dark horse lenses that completely covers this sensor and really brings you into the Cinéma Vérité world with their swirly bokeh and flat colour rendition. I leave a $20 Cosmicar lens on it most of the time that's about the size of your thumb and is tack sharp. It's so much fun to pass the Pocket around to family members during a get together and see what moments they capture...and want to capture because of the cameras simplicity to operate and non-intimidating size. I'm over the sharpness/ resolution war and I much prefer uniqueness and character in an image. The Pocket and Micro are the best base digital cameras to build off of and continue that lost 'dad footage' collecting dust in peoples attics. For me, it bridges the gap between old film aesthetics with a modern editing pipeline perfectly. It's also a great conversation starter piece of gear :) I should add that getting a RAWLITE OLPF gets rid of moire, IR pollution and a significant amount of chroma noise as a result. You can then run your edit through Topaz to upscale it to 4k which sharpens the footage. It looks better than sharpening already digitally sharpened footage (like the Pocket 4k). Keep shooting - you'll warm up to it eventually! Also I'm in Toronto, Leaside. Sup.

You are so famous now...everybody follows you on the path for the perfect combo..

Idk what anyone else is thinking and seeing...but I seen a star was born. You are cinema.

BMPCC looks like it has more range than the canon, you need to get a color checker chart and find where neutral white point really is in your setup, then go get one of those *your camera model* to alexa LUTs to strong arm the color science into something everyone likes.

This is probably the single best tip for getting the most out of the bmpcc-og. I don't know if it's just that the Arri color space has a nicer highlight roll off, or if the entire gamma and color curves are just much more refined, but you're spot on. I was experimenting with color space transforms one day, tried Arri log, and was blown away at how much it improves the bm footage. Not only does it make a basic Rec709 conversion look way better, it makes grading sooooo much easier in almost every respect.

6:25 SAME! I only shoot in ProRes since my card does the same with RAW. Despite being completely up to spec. Too bad cause with that there go 2ish stops of dynamic range right outta the gate. Whatever. But the files are so much smaller. Holy crow. So what are your thoughts? "Quirky" is quite the understatement, right? (waiting for you to unlock the secret lens flair dot patterns 😄)

Great stuff, as always! Could not spot laughing, great film father and son. I have three cameras like this, since they were out, and used them for many clips and short films, really amazing cameras, and always said, through the years, that there was nothing that could do nicer video. I use them a lot with my C mount Bolex lenses, they are amazing, and since made for 16mm film, they fit the sensor perfectly. If you like I can give you a 25 Angenieux, great lens, I have two more of that focal length. Thank you for your wonderfull videos

To be honest? I loved the image quality , at least what I could see on my Imac 27". You just need to add some Cat Stevens background music and you are sooo done going to the red carpet! :) Best from Uruguay.

I like the way you ducked the word “flat”.

When you said "the cinema" I guessed the "is ours" part. I do think you can make that camera be something special when you get the right video hobo lens for it.

12:16 Yup, rig it out. I got a 96Wh powerbank with dc out adjustable from 4-12v just strapped to my big ass frankensteined shoulder rig. Fits like a love though and can probably go on smallrig™ too. Anyway, the furthest I ever got it down to was 42% at a 14h shoot. That's the best drainer I could do, so that is no concern. It's not that the camera is that power hungry, the batteries are simply that shitty.

RAW looks ok and no Stutters. BUF from this point 13:14 forward Stutters every few seconds freeze frames from 3-8 frames are identical. Starts, Hammer 3 frames freeze, Screwdriver 8 frames freeze, Glasses 5 frames freeze, ... I counted at least 60 stutters from that point to end of video. Sorry for bad news :( hopefully it is ProRes and not overheating.

I have waited for this video for too long that when I saw the title, I already knew it was it.
