This is the kind of stuff I want to see from people reviewing cameras. I can’t stand looking up a camera and getting nothing but landscape and architecture. I wanna see these cameras performing in scenes. Thanks! Subscribed.

I was blown away with the side by side with the way the RED handled the crazy highlights vs the BMPCC4K in the first shot comparison

@BrianMakesFilms 5 лет назад

This actually makes me feel super content with the BMPCC4k. I had to really look at the images to figure out which was which, honestly. In any non-comparison scenario with controlled light the BMPCC4k will do a plenty fantastic job.

@sirgigolo 5 лет назад

@J-Hue 5 лет назад

This kind of scene recreation has to be the best way to show the cinematic capabilities of a camera. This should be the go-to method, imo. That said, I'm loving the BM 4k's capabilities. That look is hard to beat without spending at least twice as much.

@realestatemediapro 5 лет назад

Dude, blown away at the lighting man and how close you are able to get the shots. Awesome work man

@takeshi9473 4 года назад

I was really blown away at how well the pocket competes with the Red. Oh wow! Thank you for the heart! Honestly I've been watching a lot of bmpcc 4k test footage and reviews, and it looks like an amazing investment. Maybe sometime next year I'll be able to buy it. I can say that you where one of the people to pull me towards it.

@mpbootcamp7009 Год назад

I didnt see that at all. The first shot alone shows how the 4k got absolutely curb stomped by the Red. And I don't even like Red.

Quick tip for the future: Upload the video as unlisted and publish it when its fully finished and available in 1080p/4k. I am not complaining, its a great video I've waited for, but some day there might be people who are complaining about the video quality. I will wait till I can see it in 1080/4k :D You are making awesome Videos man! Keep going on with that :)

Great videos. I appreciate the more practical approach to comparing the BMPCC 4K to other cameras. While the technicals are important, the outcome is more important. Great job with that. I would love to see you try and recreate some sequences from Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049 with the Pocket 4K.

@NatesFilmTutorials 5 лет назад

Nice comparison! I almost didn’t have a preference in the wide shot. Thanks for sharing

@wuzzed 5 лет назад

I love his comparisons too. But, did he shoot RAW? If not, the image out of the BMPCC4K dramatically changes as you change ISO, particularly from 1000 to 1250, unless you are shooting RAW. You have to carefully select the ISO based on the scene in order to better preserve the dark or light areas. ISOs below the native ISO are better at preserving dark details & ISOs above the native ISO are better at preserving highlight details. I don't know the ISOs for each of the scenes in his video, but in the darker scenes, but, for example, ISO 1250 would be dramatically better than ISO 1000 in terms of preserving dark details. There is a chart from BM that shows the dynamic range for various ISOs.

@moviekidtechlife 5 лет назад

@ShaneHarderPhoto 5 лет назад

I’m sure in resolve the shots look way better on the red but after rendering and YT compression they look too close to tell. The shot is going to be dictated so much more by color grading and like you said lighting than camera choice at this point. I think we’ll look back on the BMPCC4K as a watershed camera, similar to what the 5D mk II did for the film industry.

@heylou 5 лет назад

@palfrey411 5 лет назад

Loving the scene remakes you are doing to compare. The quality of the pocket is really quite amazing for the price. In all honesty I don't think most of the general public could spot the difference or even care what anything is shot on, I think any pro camera now days can produce results which wont detract from the story. The narrative, set design, lighting and sound is what separates the good from great.

@eriknyman3984 5 лет назад

You know, I've been looking for a good 2nd camera to pair with my BM UMP. I think that this one is a good choice. I really like how the netflix series "shot in the dark" used BM Micro's for all shots where the cameras were inside the vehicle. Held up really well in dark scenes. BlackMagic's newest addition with this camera shows that you don't necessarily need a ton of money invested, if you can utilize all other aspects of filmmaking to increase that image quality.

@spensersakurai 5 лет назад
