Terabytes of data required, serious workflow questions.

 

[Luke Neumann]

File sizes don't seem to be much bigger than MX since you can record at lower compression and get similar results.

 

[AndreeMarkefors]

Forget everything from 35mm adaptors to sliders, jibs and steadicams to 4k to 5k to Mōvi to… whatever…

All you need is a 6k raw shooting carbon fiber camera and a helicopter with a gyro. That's basically it, and you're covered.

Looking at it that way, it's a pretty short list.

Nice Luke.

Did I see some Yuba River footage in there?

Just some alternate footage. Echoing Nathans thoughts, the dynamic range is what stands out the most at first (from an aerial cinematography POV). We didn't run any tests but something was immediately apparent to all of us...there was MUCH less clipping in the highs of the clouds than on the Alexa. Considerably less. That extra room is huge when you're shooting into the sun Thanks to Nathan and GSS for letting us ride along.

The sun right now in Northern California is pretty weak. We'll know for sure in the summer how the Dragon handles shooting into the sun.

Certain reasons why it couldn't be uploaded in 4K (I'm sure you can guess half of them). But, to me, shooting into the sun and keeping the highlights (basically) in check shows off the camera...no matter what compression/resolution.
