Guest teetime Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Everybody who is in serious video production! This is huge.The best thing happened since the beginning of the evolution started with nikons d90. Now a company with a fraction of the resources best know for their external recording boxes (like the Hyperdeck Shuttle) BlackMagic Design has dropped a bombshell. They have entered the digital cinema market with a $3000 cinema camera that records 2.5K RAW with 13.5 stops of dynamic range to an SSD, with Thunderbolt and HD-SDI. A true next generation camera. + a copy of DaVinci Resolve (By itself worth a 1000 Bucks!) These are exciting times for indy cinema! http://www.blackmagi...iccinemacamera/ Test Video: http://vimeopro.com/.../video/40290704 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yeah I thought it was going to be more expensive. Really makes me want to save up for one and start making short films. I've always wanted to shoot anything with high quality film, this is the next best thing with 20 times the convenience and pricing. Very cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J3FF3R00 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Does it have a rolling shutter? My guess is yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbpete Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 How does it compare stats wise to say something like a Canon 5d mkIII (erm, ignoring the recent light issues !) running Magic Lantern ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mirezzi Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Does it have a rolling shutter? My guess is yes. It features a C-MOS sensor, so your guess is likely correct. I think this is good news, but it's not revolutionary...yet. Until the rolling shutter issue is resolved, I'm done with buying any of these cameras.

Guest KY Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Does it have a rolling shutter? My guess is yes. haha yeah, my first thought as well. whatever, you can remake Warhol's Empire or something. Better equipment/technology does not make you a better filmmaker. Exhibit 1: Star Wars Episodes I-III. that's true, but what does it have to do with this camera?

Joyrex Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 What I mean by that is while this brings a great camera at an affordable price to many filmmakers that otherwise wouldn't be able to afford a camera with similar capabilities, it doesn't mean what they produce will instantly be better because of it.

Guest KY Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Well, yeah, I don't think anybody's arguing against you on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest apeterlives Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 it sets a standard video quality higher, that's what improves, as more tech that becomes readily available the image quality is no longer what differentiates good and bad video, but rather the content... truth is, as it's been said above it's much easier to get a good looking image than to make good content, even OK content...excited to try one out though....imagine they will update a new model to 4k standard at somepoint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
