Raw Video / Re: 5D3 ml raw iq is no less than Red One
December 06, 2023, 07:10:12 PM
I really like the iq much better on the 5d m2 or m3
it's unique

another good reason to use ML ...the environment...the huge pollution caused by the manufacturing and distribution of new cameras..

I've just finished my first full length project using just 5D mk iii with ML, after years as my only camera.  It has been the most amazing ride, and I can't express enough how grateful I am to everyone involved. 

I'm curious though - having never used anything else - what others' experiences are of the entry level commercial cinema cameras.  A RED Komodo, or a Canon C300 for example.  Even a Fujifilm GFX100.  As I'm acutely aware I'm going to have to deliver 4k at least on my next project.

Has anyone experience with these to share, in light of the amazing ML 5D?

Do you know exactly what camera you want to use?

You can deliver in 4K with ML easily?

So I don't really understand your question?

I've worked with all the cameras you mentioned but I mostly shoot on super 16mm

Why are you delivering in 4k for your next job?
#10
also full frame on the 5dmii (and compact)

I can use this camera really for almost any digital job (many reasons why it's so good)

#11
I have the 5d2 and 3 great cameras..professionally use     I shoot mostly on super 16mm film cameras
but these two cameras in the digital realm are in the big leagues with alexa and red

is there a setting on the 5d mark II for shooting without lens?
#14
first time with 5d m2 on a job and wondering about best cf cards to use (to prevent overheating and for longest recording time)

nice!

Could be compression artifacts.  Looks similar to JPEG quantisation.  RAW wouldn't have those.

Mostly shooting commercials on film

But also have shot with Alexa (this is around where the 5d3 with ml is)
#17
I shoot commercials on super 16mm film camera it's fantastic and a cheap way to have high end excellence


5d3ml ranks high as a digital video image compared to everything else out there in the video camera realm and much better than the cameras it's being compared to


Everything depends on what your doing and up to you to decide

Love shooting on Kodak 16 mm film.  Really no experience like it.

Maybe shoot a roll to compare .

Was there 90 minutes of footage shot?

What did you edit on?
#21
In Europe should the camera setting be on PAL even though I'm shooting at 24 FPS?
#22
How does motion look at 23.976 FPS?

I own a bmpcc4k and still own my 50D with ML. Have not used ML on a 5D3. The only way my 50D(and probably the 5D3) is better is the ability to take higher resolution pictures than 8 MegaPixels and maybe the colors(mainly skintones) a bit, the quality and strength of the physical body, and the ability to tinker. Other than that the pocket is better or nearly equal in every way imho. You can get larger than aps-c look with a cheap speedbooster knock-off and close-ish to full frame with a with an XL speedbooster.

It's not just about the specs and capabilities, it's about the workflow and reliability. If you do video and want a very good camera that just works for a lot of scenario's, the pocket is great. You can use it casually with a kit lens, onboard audio, with a baked in and good looking video LUT to lower bitrate prores footage on sd cards that can be edited on a laptop, which is what I did on holiday just now. The disadvantage the 5D3 has here is the raw conversion workflow, reliability is less of an issue.

But you can easily build up the pocket and use it in a pro environment, both for cinema as for studio or event coverage, knowing it will perform and will not let you down. The disadvantage with the 5D3 is the reliability, workflow, codec capabilities, resolutions, framerates, connection options, onboard audio, interface options...

If you like the tinkering and the alpha and the bleeding edge, ML is awesome. If you want to just go and shoot and stop worrying, grab a Pocket. It's crazy how much peace of mind it has given me.

I just want to post that the disadvantages listed on this post  are the opposite from my experience and these are actually the advantages of the 5d3 with ml
Also another huge advantage is that you have a world class still camera

But the choice is up to the individual and their needs

I shoot on super 16mm film and the 5d ..There is a huge difference for me ..the 5d3 colors full frame low light...

(This is the only digital camera I use and I worked with all of them )
