Re: New Sony E-mount video cam for IBC
The first thing that stuck out to me was the "tulip" shaped lens hood on the thing, which implies a zoom, and typically a rather wide zoom. Are we looking at a fixed lens here, or are they also...

Re: C300 Mk II White papers
You would need some sort of converter to get 4k out of the C300II into this monitor. Dan Keaton from Convergent Design says the Odyssey 7Q+ hardware is capable of this type of conversion, although...

Re: C100 sensor cleaning?
I've literally never had a spec of dust show up on my c300, and I'm not exactly the cleanest guy when it comes to handling/storing my camera. There is an IR glass filter that sits in front of the ND...

Re: DSLR to C100 mark2

Re: ISO Talk on C100 MK2
Hi Dan,
Here's a piece I shot a few years ago on the C300, shot at ISO's ranging between 5000 and 20,000. All exterior night with no added lighting. Some shots we're illuminated only by a 90% full...

Re: ISO Talk on C100 MK2
Oh, Gary :-)
So Arthur. I think that this camera functions extremely well up to 5000, and certainly 10,000 looks very decent, especially when the light source is something like daylight.(often not...

Re: Strain on the C300 EF- mount
I regularly use the 70-200 and canon's cinema primes on the camera with no support all the time. These are a little less than a pound lighter than the 28-300. If you are worried about damaging the...

Re: C300 Mk II White papers

Re: C300 Mk II White papers
The manual is explicit that there is only 2k/HD over HDMI and SDI. The only 4k "output" is raw (via the REC and MON terminals). This was reported by Newsshooter and others at NAB. I don't think it's...

Re: 120 fps Footage C300 Mark II
Yeah...I don't really see anything wrong with PB's C300II footage...I think we're seeing something very close to 1080p there and so there's nothing to worry about. The occasional aliasing in the Fs7...

Re: 120 fps Footage C300 Mark II
Someone who's an engineer in these matters might want to chime in. When we look at the 4k path on this camera, it refers to a 4 frame 1080p sample that is reassembled into a 4k ouput. And we know...

Re: 120 fps Footage C300 Mark II
it looks like we have an answer in the white paper that Canon published today. 120fps is taking a 14bit 4 frame (RGGB), 1k (540P) sample, processing it and then up sampling it to 2k.
So the good...
