wow that most recent nighttime test looks great.. hoping the C-RAW option will put it over the top in cinema-quality.

The problem is that in-camera corrected lenses like the 7-14 wil have a lot of distortion with BMPCC

Awesome! Looks great!

lol @soundgh2 Thanks for that reality check.

For me the small size is only a suggestion of how you can use it and not a restriction! So yeah you can go Incognito and use pancakes with the BPC or you can slap a Cine Lens on it and rig it up for some serious shootin... it's all good. I love that kind of flexibility. In fact it's not too far off from the idea of a sensor in a small box concept. Only it's been flattened into the shape of a NEX and still has an LCD. Still really small and can be built up from there.

@vicharris I’m not sure I follow. Are you saying that because Metabones delayed their Micro Four Thirds Speed Booster from April to the second half of 2013? If so I get it.

But, correct me if I’m wrong, if the BPC has an MFT mount and Metabones comes out with this MFT Speed Booster later this year (which is basically upon us) wouldn’t that work with all our manual lenses on the BPC? I believe it was discussed earlier in this thread.

With that said, and just to be clear, what I was talking about before is getting the “future” MFT Metabones adapter with this MFT mount BPC camera and bringing yourself right back into GH2/3 category FOV size wise. To me that makes the perfect combo to match up to your GH.

EDIT: I didn't realize it but the M 4/3 metabones adapter is out already. I just checked out Phil Bloom's test on the original BMCC.

Thanks for the wake up call, y'all :)

I'll stick to my original plan using the tokina 11-16 and a voigt 17.5. I guess Metabones or LensTurbo releases a Nikon G to m43 in the future.

Let's all take a step back for a second. The ONLY thing that is missing is the ultra-wide end and let's be real that's not something you need to have ALL THE TIME for EVERY SHOT!!! It all depends on what you shoot and those requirements, but this is being blown out of proportion.

The Lumix 7-14mm = 21-42mm and the Oly 9-18mm = 27-54mm on the BPC which isn't bad at all for a decent wide shot. Now if you need even wider perhaps you should look into an Anamorphic or just use a different camera for Ultra-wide shots. Every camera has it's strengths and purpose. I don't view the BPC as the best tool for low light or Ultra-wide landscapes, however, that leaves a BOATLOAD of other things this camera will be great at.

Am I missing something?? Just get a Metabones adapter or the $200 Chinese equivalent and you'll be right back where you left off with the GH-2 size-wise. With that said you get 13 stops of Dynamic range and.....an actual 1080p RAW image. Hold on to your GH-3 if you want slow motion.

These Canon hacks (yes including the 5Dlll) all have issues with their image. They don't compare with the actual RAW stream (what you see in a still RAW image) because what we are seeing is what's supposed to be shown on an LCD screen. This is why we see jagged edges and fixed pattern noise (in certain shades of light) in some of the images.

My advice to anyone is this...if you already own a Canon (particularly the 5Dll/lll) then it might not be worth it to you. If you don't then it would be silly to pay for a camera in that dollar range and omit the BMCC/BMCCC or 4k cameras for what I see is a compromised image.

Yes...some people are getting great results when they are careful (like some of Squigs shots etc.) but.......... U get the point

@oscillian No audio with the 50D.

Andrew seems to be posting up any old crap these days. Shame.

Not going to lie, 3x crop is a bit of a concern for me, I'm just going to have to wait on reports/test videos from the first group of owners. Still excited though.
