Hi,
Little commercial we shot recently for Latvian chocolate company.
Filmed on Scarlet with Canon glasses. ISO 800.
I really love this camera for dynamic range, we used only two four-bank Kino flos + one 1kw Arri fresnel, and had all details outside the window without clipping highlits.

 
Nice job Алексей, but I had noticed a couple of things. These are just my observations, so, please do not take it as a criticism.
First, there is an image of McDonalds in the background. Normally, that would be removed from the spot. Also, there is a reflection of the above mentioned Kinoflo light, that should had been removed as well. And when you mention the wide dynamic range of the camera, judging from the images in the commercial, the highlights, like the paper on the top of the computer in the same shot is blown out, indicating just an opposite from the wide dynamic range. But I must admit, iooking at the image, it is difficult to say, if it was shot this way or was it graded like that.
 
I like the product shot of the actual chocolate, but that doesnt look like it was shot by the same production company that shot the rest of the spot....true?
 
Thank you, Jake! You are absolutely right about McDonalds and kinoflo reflection, I don't know why we hadn't removed them...:(
As regards highlits- it is definitely grading.

"Check out the eagle-eyes on Jaaaack!" Wow, nice spotting; I had to watch in 1080p and 3 times to even see the golden arches at the beginning!
