Sherif Mokbel compares BRAW to ProRes RAW recorded externally from the S1H with surprising results.

An excellent analysis.

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.

Yea it looked like his methodology was sound. The conclusion that some partial debayering in the BRAW file creation was being applied including some noise reduction is a bit troubling.

That said, my BRAW from my BMPCC4K has always looked at least very nice when "done" if I shot it correctly. To simply beautiful.

That’s the nature of BRAW and no secret and necessary to get round the RED patent protection.

Ah, patents ... so necessary, yet at times so annoying.

Still love the files outta my BMPCC4K.
