I've been having issues with this on my first feature (which is almost, almost done!) and often After Effects would just start glitching out, flipping the image, or "forget" what my clip is supposed to be and I have to reset it in the advanced Interpret Footage menu. My CDNG converted to OpenEXR...

I have an Optoma HD27HDR that works pretty well, I got it because there was a good deal on a 3D glasses kit bundle on eBay and it was barely used. Looking around CES yesterday the problem seems to be brightness even on newer models so you may end up finding much brighter HD models versus 4K or...

I'm liking the Proteus lenses more and more and while I love the thought of mixing an interesting brew with odd lens and adapter combos, the Proteus lenses just seem to give the most bang for the buck in terms of a relatively affordable modern anamorphic set. The straight classic 2X squeeze...

Okay, this one was pretty cool! Even the quick compositing with the skeleton was charming and it would be great if more camera tests were like this rather than wide forest shots and slow motion sequences. Seeing the camera put to work just puts aside tech talk about fixed pattern noise and...

Hi, everybody, so Newsshooter posted an MTF test article on the Achtel 9x7 camera that compares it to the Sony Venice 2, RED Raptor, BMD Ursa 12K, and Arri Alexa cameras. I was surprised at the results with the URSA 12K, I think something must have been off because technically it should have...

You know, Linus Tech Tips just did a video on the Alexa 35 and I felt a little bad that they had trouble telling the difference between it and the Sony FX6! I guess it shows that digital cinema cameras aren't for everybody and it really depends whose hands they are in to get the most out of...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, M, that seems to be the better way to go if I'm going to get one. I was hoping to nab one on sale but the extra couple hundred dollars will probably be better spent getting it from Duclos instead. I still wouldn't mind seeing more samples and user feedback...

Hey, everybody, has anybody tried out the Mitakon 50mm 1.0 Cine PL/EF lens? I had always had it under consideration but it is $1,000 and I was just looking up B&H reviews and the reports were pretty bad with DOA reports regarding infinity focus, aperture ring, and focus ring issues. Duclos...

Alright, like I've been saying, 8K+ is clearly becoming the new bottom standard and it's even more clear now that during NAB 2024 registration you're all going to see "8K/12K" under the interest topics selection! I registered yesterday and I was surprised that 12K was being listed as well with...

I currently have a 20mm 2.8, 24mm 2.8, 28mm 2.0, 35mm 2.0, 50mm 1.4, 55mm 3.5 Macro, (I think) 100mm 2.8, 100mm 4.0 Macro, 135mm 2.0 (broken mount), 135mm 3.5, 200mm 2.8, 35-70 2.8, 35-105 3.5, 50-135 3.5, 80-200L 4.0, and 85-300 4.5. I got lucky on finds for the wide end and the 135mm 2.0 is...

It would just transform into another IP. Heck, why not try "Fist of the North Star" again with this new style?

It is a struggle I know! I really like Zeiss lenses but for what I want to do the Arri Signature primes make a much better fit as I am looking for the least flare prone lenses for certain VFX purposes. Other than that, I do also like Sigma Art/Cine lenses but the lens flares on those can get...

Quick note, I have recently gotten into a Fuji GX680 setup, seems like a nice camera system, majorly loud slap when taking a photo on it, but adapting it to digital is tricky for sure. It's interesting that there are "Franken-rig" efforts to make it a much more digital system but unless you use...

It's been a while since this thread was made, the 360 degree option seems to have been taken over by the new Big Sky Sphere 18K camera which uses special fisheye lenses to capture a massive picture and while Fuji hasn't made the full move to full medium format sensor readout in 8K or higher on...

They look good with the Aivascope but I would be more excited if it had been the ISCO4ALL Iscorama! I also wonder how the SLR Magic 2X anamorphic adapter would have looked with them as well if we're talking all about anamorphic adapter use. Very cool looking lenses nonetheless!

Update: The Technical Farm place never got back to me so that's a dead end too. However, I did find some repair services on eBay that say they can fix my lens but they're in Canada so that's going to be a job for another day. The thing is, I watched a review video by Christopher Frost today on...

That's cool to finally see if the R5C had less dynamic range capability to the 6KFF and the 6KFF really kicks butt in that test. However, I can see that advantage going away if Canon refines things in an R5C Mark II and some rumors point to them possibly making one by NAB. The R5C always sits at...

Hi, everybody, so I happened to be perusing another forum marketplace and noticed that there were, once again, posts for selling Leica lenses, Leica R, Leica M, Leica Cine, etc. and usually it was for only one or two lenses. This stood out as unusual to me as the usual talk is about the act of...

I know the M and X differences get a little confusing with the Epics but the only thing different is the materials used for the bodies, like carbon fibre to stay light, otherwise it's the same 6K camera. As far as quality goes, you can still make top market images with a DSMC1 Dragon 6K as well...

Hi, everybody, so we're seeing all kinds of things come to light within the movie industry, bad streaming numbers, up and down stock prices, effects of the Hollywood strikes, and constant movie and TV show flops everywhere and, altogether it's essentially a complete falling down of the Hollywood...
