Cheers guys I'm sold now. These raw files have convinced me to buy the BMCC and a 5d mk3.

Thanks to the whole BlackMagic crew! Can't wait to finally get my baby!

Thanks John for the DNG!

:excite:

You say each shot was captured using either a Zeiss Compact Prime or a Canon L lens, but on the BTS photographs the lens mounted on the camera is an Angenieux Optimo...

So what lens was really used on set and why isn't there a single Optimo shot to download?

It's almost like you don't believe what I say !?

I used all of the lenses mentioned.

The Optimo was used on the wider frames at the beginning of the edit where Casy is playing Pool. I also used this lens on the two steadicam shots. The shots where she has the sparklers were all EF Canon "L" primes. All others were compact primes.

We chose the shots based on what looked good and showed a good range of lighting and exposure situations.

Just for you, here's a shot with a CP on.

My god, the depth of play in the image is incredible. I agree, I don't think I'll ever go back to jpeg again.

Working as a photographer, I'm used to the versatility of digital RAWs and the exposure latitude of film. I am so unbelievably excited to have that same ability within my cinema work now too. Trying very hard to be patient for the day that the box finally rocks up to my door. Have had it on pre-order for a couple months and have already created my whole rig set up.

Me too. I wasn't sure they'd pull it off but they have.

No words, this is awesome John

All I can say is Bravo to you all.

Whoooo Hooooo !!
