For some reason, I woke up in the middle of the night. What did I do? I checked my iPad, and found this.

What a joy! Downloading RAW now - that will wait 'til tomorrow (well, this morn) for Resolve - but "Afterglow" is beautiful. Kind of an ironic title, as it's really foreplay for most of us!

Thanks to John, Casey, and *all the people at Blackmagic Design* who have been working so hard to bring the camera to us. I'm looking forward so much to delivery, and getting my images out there, too.

How inspiring!

EDIT: Well, I couldn't wait until morning. I dropped footage into Resolve, and indeed - my mind is blown.

What has to be emphasized here is that it's not *just* a camera (as if this could be called "just" a camera) but a *system* of working with the latitude RAW allows for creativity, rescue, transformation of the source material - the combo of the BMC and Resolve would be astonishing for many times the sales price, but at $2,995?

You people are truly changing the world. Thank you, thank you, thank you. When will I sleep?

Well you didn't lie! My Mind IS blown!!!

I no longer worry about Low light or Aliasing!

The bad side is that now I am even MORE excited to get my camera!

This is a really wonderful set of tests shots, Thank you very much for these!

If only my internet was faster.... it's taking me a while to download the raws.....

Really excited to start playing with the RAW footage and see how great it looks. Currently downloading but I'll work on some grades at work tomorrow.

Can't wait to get my hands on this camera!

My thoughts exactly!!! This is so far above the h.264 of the DSLR's! I officially declare the DSLR dead! (for video at least) :)

John,

when I open up a file in photoshop, I see the WB you set, but I also see that you set up a "tint" value too.
Does the camera allows setting up tint - as the Alexa - before recording?
