Thinking about selling my MK iii and getting the BMPCC 4K. What do y'all think or suggest?

When in crop mode, I used to be able to press and hold shutter half way to display the raw framing, but it doesnt do that anymore, I just get Canon metering menu. Can anyone help?

I'm trying to get Cinelog output for MLV App? I tried BMDFilm then use conversion lut "BMD_to_Cinelog" but got an error message saying file too long or wrong header. Any work around? I love Cinelog and would like to use it in MLV App for faster turn around projects.

In the ML menu. When I highlight 14 bit lossless is says " Recommended Iso < 100" Does this mean to use Iso values greater than 100? or 100? I thought native ISO's were 160,320,640,etc.

My Sigma 50 mm 1.4 DG HSM Lens is switching bewtween AF and MF when trying to use AF. I've uninstalled ML and Cleared cn funcs and cleared all settings with still no luck. Any Suggestions. Here's a link with video.

Here is my current incomplete workflow. 600D RAW MLV

1. Record MLV 1344X504
2. Tony Beccar's MLV2DNG Batch
3.Import DNG to AE. Apply VisionLog profile. Make WB and exposure correction.
Now here is where my question lies. Do I make color correction of RGB levels and blacks/whites before or after I apply a lut, (currently using Osiris Luts) or should I even use a lut?) What is the best application in AE to color grade? Something that has color wheels, along the same lines as Davinci. After color grading, Neat video plugin for NR. Export as Lagarith codec.
4. Resize via Video Enhancer.
5. Adobe Premiere CC add film grain + audio + transitions.

I may have added a bit too much grain. Please share your thoughts.

I'm getting frustrated that I can't figure this out! I use Tony Beccar.s MLV convertor 1.9.2 to convert my MLV'S to DNG'S. When I import the DNG'S to ACR, it only gives me the option to use "embedded profile" on the camera profile menu. I'd like to convert it to Visionlog! I notice that there is an option to encode with an acr visionlog.xmp, but when I do that it doesn't work. Is it because a lack of metadata? I'd greatly appreciate some help.

I use raw_rec module on latest nightly on my 600D. I use Batchelor 3.0 to process my DNG's. When I import my DNGs to Lightroom, I get a pink cast on them. When I import them into AE, ACR eliminates the pink cast. Do I need to update my raw2dng in Batchelor to eliminate the pink cast when imported into LR? Some insight would help. Thanks!

Let me know what you think guys! Feedback would be greatly appreciated. This is my first attempt at shooting with raw. 1280x512 upscaled to 1920x768.

I am creating a proxy for offline workflow with initially starting with davinci. When exporting for offline edit. Which form of DNxHD codec is comparable to ApplePro Res 422? There are a lot of options to choose from. Can someone please help. Thanks.

I record at 1280x512 with a 600D and use this workflow. http://nofilmschool.com/2013/09/tutorial-canon-5d-mark-iii-magic-lantern-raw-offline-online/ I would like to upscale/uprez (same thing?) to 1920x768. At what point in this workflow should I uprez? Some input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I just downloaded avid dnxhd to program files (x86) folder and i can't find it in there. Could someone please help me? How do you use this program? Thanks

Just figured it out. I feel so stupid.

Could someone please post a link for a good raw work flow for PC? Thanks! 

OK. I am a newbie when it comes to work flow and understanding uprezzing and compression.  I import dng files to AE with raw2dng. I filmed at 1280x512 and tried to uprez through AE "render queue" at 1920x768. When I play the video back it is choppy. Is it because that my computer can't handle the rendering process at this resolution or that I am not using the right workflow. Someone please help! It would be greatly appreciated. 

I can't figure out what he means by buffer-warm up and canon preview mode. Would someone please be kind enough to help me. Thank you!

Audio OFF (We used a Zoom H4n for external audio)
Canon menu --> Video mode --> 640x480 (30p)
FPS override to 23.976 fps
Global Draw OFF (no ML histrograms, camera settings, waveforms, focus peaking or zebras, etc)
RAW Video: 1408x528 (2,67:1), buffer warm-up 32mb, no extra hacks, canon preview mode (~240-250 frames)
