I've now just bought this camera for the first time after buying the 6K Pro recently too.Love it! That Fairchild super 16 sensor is amazing. So filmic! I got a very strange but beautiful circular flare about 5 mins and 50 seconds into this video. Very strange but gorgeous. Love this camera, lens and filter. I really enjoyed making this video. I hope you enjoy watching it! Please leave a comment below!
Shot in CinemaDNG Raw
The parts of this video that aren't filmed using the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera Original (OG) were shot using the Canon 90D and Canon 135mm F2 L lens. I love this lens!
It was a moderately windy day so lots of interesting bokeh!

Great to see the BMPCC still being used. Love these colours.

@AdrianBond 2 года назад

Beautiful footage. Have you had any issues with the Leica R lens and the speedbooster element, in terms of unintended contact? Or is there enough clearance?

@PLArseneau 2 года назад

Do you have any problems using these cinemoded Leica R to EF on speedboosters? I also own an OG with the EF speedbooster, I am looking into Leica R lenses but fear that they wont be compatible with the speedbooster (rear element of the lens hitting the glass and such)

@MichaelGreenwoodMG 2 года назад

Hi no I don't think so because it can focus to infinity, unless it is hitting the glass, just as it reaches infinity. I hope that makes sense? I have definitely heard of the issue that you describe though.

@jacopoabbruscato9271 2 года назад

How do you manage focusing when on gimbal while also maintaining balance? I use it a lot handheld with a follow focus but have no experience on gimbals

@MichaelGreenwoodMG 2 года назад

I'd perhaps use a wireless follow focus or a Lidar system. Or I often just keep the F stop quite high maybe F10 so more is in focus. But this might not be too cinematic. I'd recommend something like a Tilta Nano.

Hi! I’m new to filmmaking and love your video and insight. If you don’t mind answering, what lens did you use at 2:50 in this video and at 4:00? Lovely images!

@MichaelGreenwoodMG Год назад

Thanks for your comment. Those sections of the video were filmed with the Leica Elmarit R 28mm cinemodded by Duclos, that you can see in the shots with the gimbal. If I remember correctly when I looked up the serial number it's a 1988 or 1989 model. I picked it up on Ebay for around £800 to £900 if I remember correctly (I'd have to look back on my invoices). It was already cinemodded and in great condition. Perfect for organic looking footage, if that's the kind of looking you're going for.

@993455869 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. Just curious how do you shot in CinemaDNG Raw 3:1?

@MichaelGreenwoodMG 2 года назад

Is micro any good?

@MichaelGreenwoodMG 2 года назад

Do you mean the micro four thirds mount? If so, it's very versatile in terms of the lenses that you can mount to it using adaptors. If you mean the Micro Cinema Camera and Micro Studio Camera etc, yes they are great little cameras in my opinion!

@JoaoSilva22222 2 года назад

This camera is great, but the risk of finding a replacement for the back monitor or HDMI makes it cost almost the same as the new pocket 4k. If you live in the us or australia it is easy to replace, but overseas, not much.

@MichaelGreenwoodMG 2 года назад

Yes I agree. There's a Smallrig cage with a method of clamping a micro HDMI cable into the micro HDMI port. It consists of a couple of M5 screws. I'd recommend fitting this and never removing it. The micro HDMI port is just too fragile.

@tomallon9866 2 года назад

what do you do about battery life ?

@MichaelGreenwoodMG 2 года назад

Hi Tom, I have about 8 or 10 batteries, mostly 3rd party ones. I use these if I want to keep a small form factor. I find the Hahnel ones are quite good. Even though battery life is still bad. And if I'm happy with a larger rig, I use a NPF battery plate on a Smallrig cage. I was looking at a Tilta cage too as I have two of these cameras now.
