Call from an out of town producer wanting to hire me but not familiar with the URSA Mini 4.6k. Talked him about it and sent him some BM website links, he went away happy. Called back a bit later. He was concerned that after looking at the BM website if there is a BM URSA Mini Pro, so then the camera I was offering to shoot on must be a non-professional version.
We had a chat about the same sensor on both cameras, just different form factor, no ND filters built in and I think he was happy again.
Until he rang back because his editor had told him there were rainbow flare issues with BM cameras. I tried to explain that was the only Pro version but by that stage he had lost all interest in the camera.
They are actually going to hire a Canon XF305 (ffs) and fly in with it… sigh.
