Idea - built in ND filters...

[Martin Stevens]

I'm really hoping the Dragon upgrade will include some sort of built in IRND option.

Yes, please.

I am surprised a third party has not come up with a "behind the lens" solution for ND and IR's. I would buy one of these in a second!

That makes two!

Cameras with behind-the-lens filter wheels use a clear filter for the "no filter" selection so that back-focus doesn't shift, which is the problem with putting glass filters behind a lens, you have to change the back-focus. And a filter wheel is going to take up a certain extra width in the camera body if it has to be large enough to spin three or four filters in front of a large sensor. I don't think there is room in the Epic/Scarlet body for a filter wheel and any other method like clamp-on rear filters or a filter gel slot is not going to be as convenient as a wheel, which is the whole point, to be convenient.

 

[Rob Castiglione]

Agreed. It would make life so much easier.

Yeah, why not negative value ISOs? I mean, now that digital sensors are as good as film, why not open them up to be more functional... do things that weren't possible with film.

...I dunno.
