Good looking video. Like the contrast of snow to fire.

Great camera choice. Enjoy it.

Looks great!

Agreed. Nice work.

Did you make your card bootable? If you haven't:

for Windows  or

  Thanks Andy!

This info on ISOs is pretty cool indeed!

Definitely useful!

Nice! Thank you Tony!

Hello everyone. Just want to thank everyone for the incredible work.
I am an actor by trade and over the last few years have created my own content for various forms of media.

That is very nice of you thank you.

any news about expanding DR for 50D?

btw, I'm doing CC'ing of the footage I shot for a commercial...
...everything is quite astonishing. even considering I was shooting at 320 ISO.

Alex commented that the DR Upgrade on the 50D was definitely  a lower  number/ percentage than that found on  the 5D3.
We'll see.

Please let us know if you post (if you are able) any footage from your shoot.

Great work Alex and everyone! Appreciate all that you do!

Whatever you want to believe that makes you feel smarter than the rest is fine, but it doesn't make it so.

If you make a compelling film which is well written, acted and produced that will go further to getting you a deal than what resolution it was shot at.

Absolutely agree!

I believe that Danny Boyle(28 Days Later -Director) and Chris Kentis (Open Water- Director) did not lie about the acquisition format.
It is just someone's opinion and/or assumption on a forum, Urban/ filmmaker (DVX Forum) legend. I believe that both filmmakers were pretty upfront about the formats used. The format information was even used in the marketing of both films, at least marketing geared towards the industry.
They both had investors and it would be folly to risk investor's money by entering into a fraudulent distribution contract. Which is what lying to a distributor would be.

It is just not good business.

If you are talking to someone at a major distributor it is probably because they like what they see.

PS- slightly off topic: I saw both of those films mentioned, projected in theaters during their original theatrical runs circa; 2002-2003, It would be very difficult to believe that the original acquisition format was film.

From my small screen (my phone) I don't see signs of noise.

I would rather not speculate.  But the ML tweet indicated the ML release was something to do with the sensor and Andy indicated that his end of the surprise release was something to do with post.

 You got my attention.

Hey folks,
I just did a response curve test for 50D in RAW video mode.
1. Usable (my personal view) DR is 9 stops. (Don't kill me on this, I like 50D the way it is).

Sort of like reversal motion picture film or for still shooting - slide film. (Actually better).
It is good to know the parameters that one should shoot in for best results. Thank you.

Like it. Thank you, very helpful! Thanks for posting!

Nice tutorial Alex. Thank you.

You can get Adobe Camera  Raw at the Adobe website linked below.

The latest version is from 12/11/13.

Yes very interesting test. BMPCC definitely has more DR but I definitely like the color from the 50D. It is like a different film emulsion or film stock.
Thank you for taking  the time on this LEVISDAVIS.     

Posted a 5 minute video featuring the 50D and the BMPCC. It's not your typical camera comparison video... It's more of a get to know your camera for what it's worth type video. I hope it helps you look further into the power of the camera. Here is the link to the video.

What media / cards are you using to capture images on the G6?

Thanks for the comments guys, it was my first time at using my audio gear and English is not m


y native language (not hard to guess lol). The samyang 14 is a nice lens but it's not fast at t3.1 if you want to use it as your main lens in crop mode. Also, you have deep Dof so the image won't look very cinematic. I had my 50d for 400€ (+2x70€ for fast cf cards) and the g6 costed me 470€ new with the kit lens.

Hey guys, I did a comparaison between the 50D and a panasonic G6 and it hits hard...






For my use the G6 is a much better camera...

I like the G6 and the G3. I think you said it all when you said for your use. It is sort of an apples and oranges thing. Not really looking to debate the merits on this forum. Glad that you found something that you like.
