First BMCC video

PostFri Feb 01, 2013 10:15 pm

This was a great learning experience for me! First off.. I LOVE my BMCC! even with my meager EF lenses it makes my GoPro3 B.E. look like upscaled SD video.. I learned a few things..

1. while I'm still working on getting resolve to work on my underpowered iMac.. I still can use PhotoShop to process the .dng files.. (still learning to use the controls in PS) yup.. I know it's too crushed in some places an even looks a touch green here and there.. that's from me playing with the WB settings.. :mrgreen:

2. I need to learn to adjust the shutter angle to shoot fast moving objects.. a few simple test will take care of that..

Here's the link to the video.. I know the video suffers from my lack of knowledge of PhotoShop.. but here is it anyways..

Nice work! Curious as to what lenses you used on this with the BMCC?

@pavel89l
Sorry. I had to re-upload the video.. the link should be working now.

@Jason,
Thanks! I used a Rokinon 14mm T3.1 Cine lens and a Sigma 30mm F1.4

I just watched the download, full 1920x1080 version. Really, really nice. The detail in the wide shots (presumably from the Rokinon) is really nice. Very sharp. I thought the GoPro held up okay for what it is.

Having moved away from the Atlanta area about 6 years ago after being there a decade, it was nice to see the pines and needles so clearly depicted.

Nice to see that the footage from the GoPro Black cuts in so well with the BMCC. Thanks!
