Nomad replied to a thread This is why OPEN SOURCE for BRAW is so COOL in DaVinci Resolve

Nomad replied to a thread v-mount compatibility in General Discussion

If you are based in Europe, I can recommend the Patona V-mount batteries. 12 V for sure, more than 20 will kill your camera.

Nomad replied to a thread Normalizing shots for color correction and grading in DaVinci Resolve

Nomad replied to a thread Normalizing shots for color correction and grading in DaVinci Resolve

If you can't even ask them to shoot color patches, it won't be fun. Transforming everything to log or lin won't help much since as I understand...

Nomad replied to a thread Ursa Mini Pro Quality Control (QC)? in General Discussion

Well, an OLPF needs to be calculated for the size of the photocells, not the resolution of the final picture. When windowing, this doesn't change....

Nomad replied to a thread Ursa Mini Pro Quality Control (QC)? in General Discussion

Well, even on a Red I can still provoke some aliasing with test patterns, but it never has bitten us like the original BMCC could bite you. Every...

Nomad replied to a thread New Meike MK T2.2 MFT cinema lenses on Amazon in Lens Discussion

Nomad replied to a thread Ursa Mini Pro Quality Control (QC)? in General Discussion

In the end it's a matter of taste. DNG is preserving all the false detail produced by a camera without an OLPF, creating an illusion of true...

Well, the plastic knobs for audio levels and menu control keep falling apart, you should get a few for backup. But other than that, ours is rock...

Nomad replied to a thread BMPCC4K: Wobbly focus when zooming in? in General Discussion

I think that lens is not parfocal by optical design and the AF engine is used to keep focus when zooming. True parfocal lenses for film are very...

If it's manual without optics, you may want to buy a few cheap ones, choose the best and forget the rest. It'll still be cheaper than the brand...
