did anyone tried the Olympus 9-18mm (4/3 mount) on the GH2 with an adapter? I am interested in buying one, just wanted to know your opinion on this before spending the money. The adapter I want to buy is the "cheap" Viltrox JY-43F (45€) plus the lens Olympus 9-18 (300€ used).

I think this lens would be nice Wide on the Blackmagic Cinema Camera also no?

for nostalgic reasons, I want to produce a video with my beloved original BMPCC. Therefore I want to pair the camera with a JuicedLink BMC388 preamp. However, the manufacturer doesn't exist anymore and neither do the instructional videos on youtube. There are some tweaks that need to be done in order to make the BMPCC and BMC388 work flawlessly together. Audio meter calibration, input volume...

As all the manuals and instructional videos have vanished from the internet, maybe there's someone on this forum who is familiar with the procedure and can provide me with a short instruction?

I appreciate it! Thank you.

We're already live -- but starting proper at 14:00.

See you there!

I guess it's a luxury problem. I've seen amazing stuff from both cameras!

I also used a 5D Mark III with Magic Lantern for some Glidecam shots.

Here is a NoFilmSchool BTS write-up from many moons ago (when it was called SLEEPWALKERS): http://nofilmschool.com/2013/12/ryan-lightbourn-shot-feature-on-red-scarlet-bmpcc-5d-mark-iii

Not to be confused with a ‘Stylized Look LUT’ – I created the BozBMDFilm_to_Rec709 Utility LUT out of a need to make my own color grading life easier when dealing with the Blackmagic BMCC / BMPCC Cinema Camera Film LOG and RAW files. And now I'm making it available to you.

Download Page: https://bulentozdemirfilms.wordpress.com/downloads/bmcc-bmpcc-bozbmdfilm-to-rec709-lut/

The LUT brings out the contrast and color values captured by the BMCC / BMPCC in Film or RAW mode and strives to preserve highlight and shadow detail [more examples can be found on the download page]

Though it's not free, I think the small asking price of £3.00GBP (approx $3.80USD) is enough to take a leap of faith on. Made a difference to my work flow as I’m sure it will with yours :)

Very exciting news!
I once had a Blackmagic Pocket and it was the best looking image that i've ever worked.
Unfortunately i've sold it because it was awful to shoot with it on the streets (doc work). Everything was so buried into the menus. Now i have a Pana G7 but would love to have a Bmmcc with a controller to change ISO, Aperture, shutter etc... on the fly.

DaVinci Resolve NOT INCLUDED. Tripod mount hole has been re-coiled with new 1/4-20 helicoil thread so it's good to go! One of the mount holes on top has been redone as well. Camera body has some scratches and indentations from screws on the top and bottom of unit. See photos for details. Touch screen works fine, no scratches. Sensor is clean.

No original box, but comes with AC charger, strap, hood, plus cd manual/software.

Price includes shipping to 48 US states. Paypal only.

Additional accessories I'm interested in -- battery solution, viewfinder, and speedbooster/lens turbo. I deal primarily with Nikon lenses, but I can buy a cheap adapter if you have a different mount.

The big question is : Do I need to upgrade to a 4k system to be able to compete next year and the following 3?

If so do I go the Big Ursa route? Or the Ursa Mini 4.6 k. (I may be able to acquire a Big Ursa V1 for $3800)

Either way I'm looking at pairing with an A7s as lowlight isn't a huge muscle with these cameras.

If 4k isn't necessary than I'm looking at an FS700 as over crank is a big component of my work and I maintain low light capabilities.

My main concerns about the Big Ursa are flying it (gimbal, crane, slider, hand held, tripod for that matter)

GH4, a Canon or a Blackmagic camera could be the choice in the future. As far as I figured out if we choose the path with Canon EF lenses we can use them on MFT cameras with Metabones Speedbooster EF to MFT Ultra 0.71x.

1. Would you advise to use Canon EF mount lenses with Speedbooster instead of native MFT mount lenses? Brands like Rokinon offer mounts in different variations so my plan would be to buy Rokinon lenses as EF mounts and put them on the Speedbooster on MFT devices.
2. What about powering the speedbooster? Do I need external power source on GH2 if I want to use electronic lenses?
3. Could you also recommend some wide angle lenses for our GH2?
4. What do we shoot? Nothing special just basic stuff like nature, streets, indoor, ...

Thanks in advance

Thanks

Recently there were a number of cameras stolen from Black Magic - this is not one of them - this is a legit deal. I can show you my email exchange with Black Magic about the warranty swap out etc.

It comes with 2 batteries - one from the original and one that I assume is in the unopened box.

If you would like me to included a 25mm f 0.95 c-mount lens I will do both the camera and the lens for only $1100.

I have a number of additional c-mount 1" Super 16 mm lenses for sale that will work with this as well.

PM me if you are interested. I am in Sunnyvale CA.

Thanks!
