And Paul, I see you have a mini these days, congrats, have you still got the big boy?
Yeah, but it's sitting collecting dust. I'd really like to use it more and I will.... once they release the 4.6k turret. The mini is great though. I sold my BMCC. =( I still use the Pocket a bunch though.
Consider this:
I have the v1 sensor so I was shooting 80fps full 4k. If I shoot 60 in full 4.6k on the mini, that's not much slower. If I use optical flow and slow the footage down to 80%, it's close and 75% gives me 80fps.
OR
With the Ursa v1 sensor, I can do 120 cropped and up to 150 cropped. The mini isn't far behind that at 120 cropped. Slow it down a little in post and you're close. It's close enough to not have to worry.
So why lug around that big camera?
The 4.6k sensor in Big Ursa will supposedly do 120 fps full 4.6k and 240 cropped. That's a big difference so it's useful for that.
I'd use my Ursa Mini for more general use but when on a controlled set, tripod, or handheld but not running around, I'd use the Big Ursa.
