Hi, I ordered one of these because I have shot very much with super 16 - the depth of field and fields of view will be comfortable to me. And again - for pure fun and adventure.

I think maybe one for the free version that came out this month. Yes, it is free to download and apparently works on 1080p footage.

@DailyFilmFix thanks for the "like"

@bannedindv thanks for the overview, will watch after downloading the software.

@dailyfilmfix - Hey buddy - check out my basic overview on Resolve 9 here:

I think I will download this software and take a look, is it a free software?...

Just an advice: be careful with the Van Gogh Preset because it works as a life insurance for your children:

"Van Gogh Preset: you will be famous after you die"

Apefos - If there were a "like" button here, I would like that post. But really, having a preset to apply to footage is critical. Thank goodness that Apple brought back the paste attributes option in an update to FCPX!

LOL again!

I think I will buy this camera to develop some DaVinci presets to sell online and become a very rich man!

Best sellers will be:

"Alexa preset: your bunch looks like Hollywood"

"Red Epic preset: your cheap actress looks like Angelina Jolie"

"Sony F5 preset: Your cat looks like Phillip Bloom's cat"

Maybe I can have some luck with:

"Andy Warhol preset: turn yourself into a media pop star"

Strawberry Fields Forever Preset: you do not need drugs to get high"

"And bunch of topics ala Please tell me some DaVinci preset so my bush will look like it was shot on Alexa."

LOL!

YES!

Raw is not about getting perfect natural look or natural colors, it is also about getting "whatever you want" look and colors.

I start to imagine what Andy Warhol, Van Gogh, August Macke, Edvard Munch and all others would do with this crazy little moving image thing... and, why not... The Beatles: Strawberry Fields Forever!

@apefos

thats the hard part about filming. if you have time its easy to set up and get all the configuration right. but me being a wedding filmmaker, its run and gun all day. then sometimes not all cameras have the right white balance and all and its tough to correct them in post. having the flexibility of 10bit or compressed raw is very helpful and i look forward to using it.

try not to get into filmmaking knowing about specs and such. like a lot will say, story telling and cinematography will beat camera specs no matter what. as an editor and colourist, specs will always be enticing delicious because we see a lot of the benefits of higher codecs. good luck in your film travels!

@apefos: No need to wait for 2TB SDXC cards... If you're shooting carefully planned narrative projects, I think you should be able to get by with just a few 64gb or 128gb cards just fine, even in RAW. Documentary-style projects might be a completely different story, though... for that perhaps ProRes might be a better compromise.

I understood!

So it is like no way to do mistakes with 8bit 4:2:0 codecs on shooting, you need to be perfect on shooting to get what you want just to do MINOR teaks in post if needed.

Considering BluRay and Web Streaming are 8bit 4:2:0 compressed, If I learn how to be perfect on shooting maybe I can get a good approach to BMPC using DSLR... Or, at least, I will learn how to be a bettter RAW shooter when I get one...

I confess I am a newbie in image grading but I learn fast when I start to study, and I use to experiment and learn in a scientific way... So I have a homework to do before consider the BMPC.

Anyway I will need to wait until the SDXC 2TB cards become available and some time to get price drops...

this camera is much better than si2k ... and some people won oscars shooting on si2k ..
