Hey all, just got a BM6K, and while I'm of course looking forward to working with 6K raw files + full sensor readout on some projects, I'm also wondering what the best course of action is for those shoots where I don't need all that data. For event videography, travel documentary, and even some lower budget corporate work, I'm hoping to get by with just recording 1080p ProRes. Basically where quantity, speed, and easier post workflow trumps resolution and quality. With that in mind, I have a few questions:
1. With the BM6K at 1080p ProRes, would you say I'm still getting better quality and colour than, say something like a Sony A7III or FS5 at 1080p?
2. Are there picture profiles of some sort that I should be taking into account when recording ProRes? Or some sort of log/flat setting I should use? My very quick test turned out a pretty contrasty and saturated image, though it looked nice. It kind of looked the preview LUT was baked into the image
Thanks! And sorry if this has been covered before, but I couldn't find it.
