    @CaptainHook did a good job mixing all 3 BMD cameras in Generation Young. I hope you release a 4K version of your LUT's to make matching easier between the 3. No one else can seem to do it.

    As for Ten Tenths, Three River Media is doing, I'm not impressed. The 4K stuff looks like video and looks so different than the superior track and garage recorded stuff.

    Huh, looks like their promotional samples started to make results.

    Now it is interesting to understand who will buy it instead of new 4K model coming at NAB.

    All 3 BMD cameras. The BMPC-4K was used to shoot the car in the studio (4K UHD mode):

    All 3 BMD cameras, including the BMPC-4K shooting 1080p:

    @bwhitz -- An excellent example of the value of global shutter. More info on the Vimeo page:

    RedSharkNews have one just arrived http://www.redsharknews.com/production/item/1463-blackmagic-4k-production-camera-unboxing-and-first-impressions

    Yes, overcrank on new BM at NAB and price drop. People will not be satisfied with their GH4.

  • vicharrisvicharris

    Wow. BM's really starting to put pressure on the other manufactures to step up their prosumer lines here. Love these lower prices but it really puts a hit on rental fees here. I guess more money for better glass is the key to that.

    Only a handful, but that's much improved on the previous attempts.

    What do you mean under "much improved"?

    BM 4K camera can be very strange thing, as I am sure we'll have some update at NAB and most probably price will drop even further very soon.

  • itimjimitimjim

    I've heard of reports of guys in the UK getting theirs this week. Only a handful, but that's much improved on the previous attempts.

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Good news, now we need to understand that BM means under shipping :-) Is it one month or three :-)

  • peaceonearthpeaceonearth

    but actually no RAW, only ProRes now

    Initially the cameras will ship with ProRes recording. We are working as hard as we can to add RAW recording quickly and to build cameras so everyone gets their orders asap.

    Yeah, the whole rolling shutter thing is killing me...unless you're filming the next Bourne movie! :) I've practiced to pan with action while keeping up with the actor and even tilt up towards the end with a actor to really hide RS.

  • bwhitzbwhitz

    Swing the camera hard left or right with your 13 stops rolling shutter....

    OMG NOBODY CARES ABOUT ROLLING SHUTTER!!! If your films don't look like "film" on the 2.5k Blackmagic with rolling shutter, or on a DSLR, or on a Red, bla bla bla... THEY NEVER WILL! It's because of YOU, not the shutter! I get it, people are shooting crappy stuff right now, and they think they're going to get the mythical Global-Shutter camera and all the sudden people aren't going to be like "wow, what changed, you films look like real movies now!" Won't happen. People don't notice. People don't care. It's not what's making people's film look "not professional". Latitude, Color, and Texture make 1000000x more difference than the image shifting a little bit when you're shooting like an idiot (swinging camera around). I've NEVER SEEN the rolling shutter from my GH3 or 2.5K Blackmagic... because they're always on a Steadicam, jib, or proper hand-held rig. And I do allot of music video/fast moving stuff.

    Sorry about the rant. I'm just so sick of new scape-goat argument. It makes no difference... besides for VFX people. They're the only ones that get a pass. Or if you're shooting things with very specific technical requirements... like events with strobe lights.

    Rant over.

    ON Semiconductor Corp. on Thursday sued Belgian firm CMOSIS N.V. and others for allegedly infringing four of its patents covering image sensor technology, including two patents for systems invented by one of CMOSIS's co-founders, according to court documents.

    In its complaint, Phoenix, Ariz.-based ON Semiconductor accused CMOSIS of infringing its U.S. Patent numbers 5,933,190, 6,011,251, 7,408,195 and 7,608,516, by making and selling complementary metal-oxide semiconductor, or CMOS, image sensors for use in digital cameras. The '195 and '516 patents list CMOSIS co-founder Guy Meynants as inventor.

    slowmo availabylity too :-/

  • vicentegilvicentegil

    Somebody knows if it´s possible to bring to the BlackMagic 4K slow-motion with a future firmware? Even only 1080/60p in burst mode would be really great. Thanks,

    So, nobody knows about this? Vitaliy_Kiselev?
