Honestly Black Magic needs to do a throwback for this camera updating the media storage, UI, and battery. Definitely think it would sell well in a market were people are looking for compact affordable and easy to travel with cameras.
I totally agree with you. It’s such a little tank. Would love an updated version. Maybe with 4k.
@@BlaineWestropp1 Yeah! 4K would be nice if possible without making it much bigger if any. I sadly don't think Black Magic will revisit this camera as it seems they are focusing now on making full frame cameras. But I would love for them to revisit this form factor and really emphasize on it being a "pocket" camera
@@LeapingDogFilmsIf you are interested in the BMPCC OG, check out the CinePi. It's an open source camera that uses a Raspberry Pi and a sensor of your choice (the one the project is focusing on has the same size as the OG pocket). The new demos came out on CinePi's channel show it working with a dual gain sensor (one of the biggest selling points of the Fairchild sensor the BMPCC OG uses) recording a 16bit raw image.
The coolest thing is that the camera is modular so one could upgrade components as time goes by.
I would also advise against buying a BMPCC OG over $200 because having repaired mine I can tell you it's quite fragile and almost impossible to find parts for.
Micro Studio Camera has updated to 4K. Blackmagic easily can do that.
@@hodoyoku Yeah, but the micro doesn't have the Fairchild sensor. Many people who really like the OG love it because of how that sensor renders the image.
OG for sure. BMMCC is also amazing with 60p and 3:1 compressed cDNG RAW.
Yep I’ve also use that one a bit. I have also wanted to get my hands on that one again!
I love it, theres something so perfect about a cinema cam that size, you get to be so personal with your content on screen oh and it was 32
yep. love it! this was a 35 😎
"I'd kill for some grits right now" while trying to compose a shot, I feel that lmao
😂😂
One of my favorite of your vids lately. Preach brother Blaine
Thank you thank you, only possible bc of you :)
After 5years with the BMPCC4K for jobs and private stuff I got myself a BMPCC OG beginning of 2024 and it's just so cool to shoot with it =)
It’s so cool. I love it!
👍🏾👍🏾YESSSS!!! The OG is Fantastic. I'm still in love with mine. Thanks, Blaine, beautiful work.
Thank you. I love it!
Incredibly true point about looking back on stuff and not thinking about what it was shot on.
👌😎 its always the decisions that were made that can be seen.. never anything technical!
Great vid! You spoke to everything that makes this camera unique. One of my favorite cameras to use. I know it’s been said before but it will be amazing for BMD to come out with an updated version! UltraPocket :)
Hey thank you! We need to petition them to reboot this camera!
@@BlaineWestropp1 Let's do it!
Pure Gold Insights, much appreciated, Bro. And I love that cute canine companion you've got there. Congrats on almost hitting 30K subs now! Cheers
Thank you thank you :) the dog is great. Loves his screen time 😂
@@BlaineWestropp1 Very Welcome, Man! He's a Champ. Man's Best Friend.
I had 4 of these back in the day. I found 3 of them in storage. Took one out a few months ago to relive the past. What a great sensor!
That’s a beautiful find!
I clicked so fast as soon ad I saw Blaine talking about the OG. I picked one up with the rare viewfactor cage for 300 usd. I have a red, a pocket 6k and this and to date it has shot some of my most loved pieces!!!
Love your take on the OG, Blaine!!!
Hey thank you! I’m interested in that viewfinder cage! Who makes it?
@@BlaineWestropp1 😱😱 Contineo(contineo viewfactor) used to make then until they discontineo’d them. Nowadays Will Von Tagen(XLCS cage) makes a good copy I believe. But the viewfactor is the OG!!! Long live the viewfactor!!
@@BlaineWestropp1 Yeah the Contineo Viewfactor until it got discontineo'd. Nowadays they appear every now and then otherwise Will Von Tagen makes a good copy (XLCS cage). viewfactor still the OG though!
Crisp and to the point. Love your videos
Thank you :) more to come!
One of my favorite cameras, yet I've Neva seen one in real life
It’s a beautiful piece of metal!
I agree so much with your sentiment about simplicity, and how that ends up forcing you to be more creative in your process. Too many settings and too much gear can bog you down from the actual experience from shooting. Fantastic video.
I would love to see a video from you about manual focus -- your thoughts, mistakes you see, etc... really anything at all, I learn so much from watching this channel
Hey thanks so much! I like intuitive, well designed technology! For focus, I see more mistakes with autofocus stuff than I do with manual focus stuff. I can often times see the focus hunting. Like when I film myself talking to RUclips, I don’t use auto focus. If I move forward or back, I fall out of focus slightly. I notice anyone on YT using AF, which is totally fine. For manual focus you can get good at it by just doing it a lot and messing up sometimes, or you just hire a 1st AC and they handle it. That really is the way. That being said I pull my own focus all the time. Even sometimes I have the AC disengage the focus motor so I can do it if I am operating. It all comes down to practice, knowing what you want, and choosing the right options.
Shot a feature on one of these, loved that cam. Birds of the wetlands, LOL
Haha love the birds of the wetlands tag. I always left that as is 😂 that’s cool you shot a feature on one. I did a short film on one and it was great.
I completely agree with you Blaine 100%. It’s all about the image you design over the tools you use to record it. 🙌🔥🙌🔥🙌🔥📷🎞️📷🎞️📷🎞️
Yes!!
This camera is the GOAT. It’s super dated in 2024 but the image and the size are just perfect
Yep. Maybe we petition them to make another one.
love the OG. my go to concert/travel cam.
Love it!
That beast you of reunion you were holding had a Fairchild sensor that made it so good. I got the 4k instead of that but really wanted something as small as iPhone. Thanks for sharing.
4k is a good move. same user experience pretty much in terms of the menu which is great. iPhone is pretty good now too.. just can't really add other lenses like you can with a camera.
That LUMIX Drama. Love to see a smirk on your face 😂 that intro was all style in the best way with that quick shot/synth beat. Don’t know you but we are best friends.
haha thank you thank you :)
ENDING ON A BOMB OF KNOWLEDGE! LOVE IT!
😇😇🫡
Amen brother. Beautifully said.
😎🫡
Love your content! I've bought and sold the og so many times. I keep coming back to it! In theory they could use the sensor from the G2 micro in a new pocket. Wishful thinking perhaps. Keep up the solid work!
Hey thank you! I would love a reboot of this camera!!
Blaine, thanks for the video, this is the review we´ve been waiting for. Teaching great photography with cheap cameras is always a great topic. I´ve recently bought a GH5 and found out why I was getting so much black bands on my light background, like you tried to explain, i was using electronic shutter. With the right shutter angle and frequency i finally got rid of it. Thanks!
Thank you! Glad you got rid of the bands! Gotta be at that right shutter angle when inside using house lights.
@@BlaineWestropp1 make more vídeos on the pocket it really is Amazing despite the moiree
I will. I want to pit some exotic lenses on it!
@@BlaineWestropp1 please do! I´ve tried some vintage lenses on my GH5 and it gave it a much better look.
Fire camera man. Gives such a unique look; which is missing for a lot of cameras nowadays.
yep. at times it is a little tricky to grade, but it has a unique cool look. the newer BM cameras are much easier to grade in my opinion. but this og is something special!
@@BlaineWestropp1 yeah. A lot of the most unique sensors have been hard to grade from my experience. As you know, I have the Scarlet-W and that guy has taken some work to get to a deliverable grade. But, that’s better than just slapping a LUT on some FX3 footage imo.
Walking around, seeing something cool and missing the moment is a great motivator to learn how to use your camera faster (at least for me it is). If it takes too long to adjust, it's tough to want to go shoot for fun with that camera. Not every camera needs to pass that test, but they are cooler when the do
100%. it stings when you miss the shot, but makes ya better. I support walking around and practicing. it's kinda hard to just walk around and make random shots feel like something.. so when you are able to do that.. it helps in other areas.
Sold my A7sIII the beginning of last year and have been shooting exclusively on this for the past year professionally. It's got it quirks but the image is lovely and I have so much fun stripping it down to a faux super 16mm Bolex handheld rig. Everyone looks at it with no idea what I'm shooting on.
I love that. That makes me want to get a handle for it. Like a little bolex handle
@@BlaineWestropp1 jjc? not sure brand, sells a little handle that actually has a little trigger that you can run to the remote port to start/stop record.
Great job!
thank you!
Best camera ever.
The goat
Appreciated!
🫡
Still own two - insanely good image. Also great to use during winter shoots - ran so warm no need for gloves.
haha the perfect hand warmers 😂 I also had 2 years ago. was great.
Love that camera, I shot my first feature ( a micro budget crime film in 2019) on the OG. Since I had to move locations, setup real quickly, and was looking for something with decent quality the OG worked out perfectly. I screened it in a few theaters and now its on TUBI ( film is called Dirt City) and aside from it being extremely low budget, i believe it looked pretty good on the big screen. I bought the cam from an old skater friend who didn't have any use for it.
This is awesome! I’m going to have to check out the film. It’s a great camera. It’s very wise to pick the right tool, in your case, something you needed to move around easily with. I shot a pilot episode last summer and I was really torn on what camera to use and I ended up using the fx3 (for ease of moving around) and a 24-70 zoom. Day 1 I was thanking myself for keeping it simple.
@@BlaineWestropp1 I haven’t touched the Fx3 yet but definitely want to try it out. I agree with you on using what’s best for the project. What was the pilot Episode about ?
Fx3 is great. It’s about 3 friends who own a gym and are trying to keep the business running!
Never used this one but thought about getting in back when it was released. Just got the full frame 6k recently so stoked to test it out
Full frame 6k is great. I definitely support that purchase. Image is beautiful and you can shoot FF all the way to s16 which is great.
@@BlaineWestropp1 didn’t know about the s16 part, that sounds cool too
I have been using Bmpcc og for eight years. I couldn't give up on this camera. I think it gives a more organic image than most other blackmagic cameras. Maybe an updated model can be produced.
Love it. An updated model would be 👌 as long as they kept the same size.
I used it for a few shots in the intro of the Wyatt Cenac Netflix special "Brooklyn" back in 2014. Shot in McCarren Park. Netflix didn't say anything. This may have been before the hoopla about cameras being Netflix certified. 🤷♂
Wow! I gotta see this. I go to mccarren park every day. Need to see the 2014 Blackmagic version of it!
No way! It is amazing
love it!
I had one with the Viewfactor cage. Looked the bomb. Menu was a dream. BUT… external battery is essential and the ports are super-delicate. By the time you’ve finished rigging it, it was like a premature baby on life support.
I don’t mind the battery situation. I may need to get the viewfinder. Who made it?
It was the Viewfactor cage. Milled from one block of aluminium. Unsurprisingly they went under once their machine died. If you want a VF, the one I used is by Swivi. Very compatible with this model and the cage.
@josephasghar cool thanks for the info!
Love OG
Love :)
In 2013 I bought the original BMPCC on sale for $499. The current sale felt like deja vu so I bought the BMCC6K. It brought a tear to my eye to see that the caveats from days of yore (no ibis, crappy low light and battery life) are still there today. Feels so familiar. Now I can free my OG Pocket from it's cage and adapter so I can use it as a pocket camera. Trying to figure out what Lumix lens to get since that 14-42 you're using has a long history of issues. Thanks for this video, I think simplicity and constraints are good and look forward to my pocket finally...ending up in my pocket.
this is great. glad you got the 6k. the FF right? I really dont mind the caveats.. the Alexa (my favorite camera ever) has all those same things. no ibis, fast battery drain, and no significant low light performance are all part of all the best cameras ever made in my opinion. sure it is cool to have an fx3 that can see in the dark and the battery lasts all day, but I am used to an Alexa that runs for 45 minutes and having 12 gold mount batteries that need to be moved around. I could fit 12 bmpcc batts in my other pocket! it does go back to the simplicity.. I even like when batteries dont last for a long time, sometimes. makes you more intentional. like film. so having all of those things are fine with me, and having all of them in a camera I can carry around all day is super cool. glad you got the bmpcc back in your pocket!
@@BlaineWestropp1 Yes, the FF. I look forward to not doing crop conversion since I use Contax glass. And like you, I'm not averse to carrying batteries. I'd prefer not having to rig this up with a V-mount or whatever. I think of it like when I was shooting Super 8, you shoot very intentionally. I like that the FF has that nice big monitor. I shoot Sony for stills and have tried for video but there's something special about BM files and I love BM menus.
This was my very first camera and it taught me so much ! And after more than 8 years, I've decided to film my first documentary with it !
I could have gone with way much better cameras, but budget cuts and the need to be discreet in some locations made me consider this option. Back to basics I guess... 😁
It’s a gem! I wish you good luck on the film and hope the og helps you make some magic 😎
How i can to get you luts? I LOVE THE COLORGRADING OF YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH
July 1. Stay tuned :)
Excellent as always. I think you might be looking for the cine equivalent of a leica rangefinder m series, m3-6. I guess a digital braun nizo would make some sense and i have never really understood why that form factor disappeared bar for camcorders. I think the sony handycam mini dv was probably the game changer with the flip out screen. If we are interested in capturing what we see around us then it never made sense to me to have any camera that you didn’t put up to your eye to shoot. That said i used to love how reportage photographers would extend their arm and point the camera in the general direction of the action knowing the lens and focus were taken care of. For play back having a screen is nice for sure but for shooting?? I think that is where bm got confused or at least made a counter intuitive decision though it did tie in the moment of shooting with the moment of viewing as its usp. Clever from a wysiwyg dopamine pov. Maybe its the kind of decision that is made by someone who has never been a photographer and hasnt experienced the delay inherent in seeing film rushes back. I think point and shoot has always made sense and coming from using film cameras and their simplicity especially when thinking about a bolex it is easy to see how bruce webber shot lets get lost on one and got nominated for an Oscar. Btw i am surprised you are not shooting in monochrome b and w. Im sure you already have. Mank? Fellini? Woody Allen’s Manhattan? Slipping my Komodo to the achromic lut is like breathing out after holding my breath. Everything is so easy in terms of shooting and reducing the decision making down to the subject and the frame. I remember having a leica r series and for some reason shot widescreen on it always on b and w film. I think i was experimenting with panoramic set ups at the time. Just amazing. My memory is so fuzzy but i remember the contact sheets having a super wide neg frame. Always been a fan of 239. I put anamorphics on dvcams and i look at all my old footage that is framed so perfectly (?) because the cameras were so low tech and lens orientated being film or early digital that i really wish they could have some more fidelity. Upres software just doesnt work on it. Still they capture a time and place i guess. Sorry i am drifting. Thx for the post. An absolute pleasure as always.
thanks Ken! I do very much cherish a viewfinder. I like how you can put a viewfinder on the newer Blackmagic cams. very nice to frame things, and kind of block out everything else. that is the way. also, when you mention monochrome, do you mean just view the monitor in B&W or shoot stuff in B&W. I shot a lot of B&W film, but don't do that much anymore. maybe I need to step back into it for a moment!
@@BlaineWestropp1 hey thx for that. I mean shoot in monochrome. Although you seem like someone who appreciates muted tones i guess it make total sense that you have been there and got the black and white t-shirt and mug. I guess everyone has a black and white masterpiece in them.
I bought one of these back in 2013. I sold it, I regret it but I hope the guy I sold it too used it well. I would love if BM remade this and kept it pocket and make it MFT so I can still use my current lenses 😊
I would love if they remade this. also.. that is always how I think of gear that I sold and regret.. hope its making good work!
Love this pocketable camera
A true classic.
Would love to see how you like the Panasonic Lumix S9. Pocket cinema camera with a similar pancake lens.
I as well would love to try that one out! I will try to make it happen
For shooting in the ditch, I have a 5D Mark 2 with a magic light.
Another classic!
I just got into filmmaking a year ago and bought myself an OG and rigged it out. For my needs, it’s perfect… Hoping to get my hands on an eclipse from Alt Cine built out of the micro. Then I will be set 🌞
Love it. The eclipse looks cool, but I don’t know too much about it, when does it ship? Also, the full frame is on sale right now!
@@BlaineWestropp1 I think they are just finishing the final testing phase. I don’t know when they’re going to start production. By the way Alt Cine makes an olpf filter for the OG and micro i’m just waiting for mine to arrive. For me, I’m not interested in the 6K although the price is awesome atm. Making my own films I just love the simplicity of the OG and coming from a photography I’m wedded to the Fairchild sensor, you get amazing results uprezing to 4K in daVinci resolve.
Great video! What lens did you film you talking to the camera on? Looks great,
Hey thank you! That was an atlas mercury 36mm :)
Did you hold onto that Ikonoskop and those s16 lenses? Would be cool to see some footage and comparisons. Maybe you need to try the Digital Bolex next haha
Great video 🤘🏻
Hey thanks! I definitely want to try the digital bolex. The imonoskop and s16 glass was rented, but could see myself potentially renting that package again!
How has it comparing to sony rx100 series which is also a pocket camera? would love to know if you happened to have used both already
I haven’t used an rx100, but it’s on my list :)
I bought my BMPCC because of this video 🔥 i want to ask you about that 14-42 OIS. Is it good for this camera because of the OIS which the camera dont have ? Also which one is the tiny ND variable filter ? Thanks
hey sorry for the delay. the 14-42 is cool. it is kind of annoying to focus and zoom, as both are on an electronic motor. but it is tiny. the OIS does work, but you can't turn it off. I would look into a lens where you could turn it off. all I know about the ND is that it says URTH 37 BL ND2-400!
@@BlaineWestropp1 thank You
Screen on mine is broken too, so I can’t even be sure that what I’m shooting has worked. It removes the final crutch between this and shooting film
Does the screen work at all?! You gotta be able to at least see something!
@@BlaineWestropp1 oh yeah, I can see enough to frame and punch in for focus, but you should see it man, its almost like a solarised image, there’s no way to gauge colour, contrast or exposure. I just use 90% zebras and pray
An upgraded OG is what everyone wants since the release. They know it would be OP.
Yup. 100% agreed.
I always trashed this camera back in the day. But you make a good argument for it.
Though what you said made me think about tripods. They're very simple though a lot can be said about a tilt or pan shot. I was on a jewellery shoot recently shooting in a Komodo with Cooke lenses and a ronin 2 and when we got into the edit I was like this could have been 90% on sticks and could have been more impactful. While I also think due to time pressure we never got the ronin balanced properly due to how front and bottom heavy the rig was so the tripod could have saved us time too.
tripod is definitely very useful. I like how I see less tripod stuff lately. it makes me use a tripod more. I have actually been doing some whip pan stuff and it looks nice.. and feels unique bc a lot of stuff we see is on a moving camera nowadays. love a dolly of course, but the tripod is simple, and impactful like you say.
@@BlaineWestropp1 love a good whip pan. A few crash zooms can also be sick especially now there are so many great parfocal lenses about!
Tripods are certainly the one really helps keep you grounded and makes like simple and I absolutely love dollies, I am not crazy about gimbals just as they're so over used though they certainly have a place and I think if you keep life simple use simple techniques you'll end up having a more impactful moment I'd try and leave out complications for a specific shot rather than the whole thing
Also the democracy of great filmmaking gear gets a lot of people trying these shots that unless your intentional with them won't actually add and will dilute what you're trying to say. Being more economical with the shots is a better way to be
Great advice here: Learn to not rely on all the features. Need better lowlight performance? Learn to light your scene. I have an FX30 and people and quick to say “crappy lowlight”, but if you know how to light a scene properly, the fx30 is a great camera.
Keep inspiring man 🤜🏻🤛🏻
100% agree. also, just bc a camera has AF and dual iso.. doesn't mean you can't use it in a traditional manner. fx30 and fx3 are amazing cameras and some of my top recommendations. I also need to buy an fx30.
Do you think is better looking for a OIS lens because of the lack of in stabilization and low weight of the camera ?
Really depends how you want to use the camera. Sometimes OIS is great, sometimes it is not. But if you have a lens you can turn it off and on, then that’s good.
I had one and sold it on a while back … it’s still in the back of my mind, the image was really something ... maybe I should re-buy! 🤔
I felt the same about it. glad to have one back in my hands. also, no hurt in buying one, using it for a little, then selling it.
@@BlaineWestropp1 Yes good point, I might have to go shopping for one now that it’s on my mind again 😅.
Man I just recently got a bmpcc 4k and the image is so awesome, I've heard the Original (and I think the first Micro Studio and the 2.5k) have the old sensor that people really like, comparing it to digital film, I feel like the bmpcc 4k is like that, I can only imagine how the original is. 😮 I want to get an original one day to be able to better match my a and b cameras (right now I have the 4k and a Lumix S5ii which is great but didn't match well for me 🤔)
the 4k is great. I think it has a look that is a little easier to work with. both are special in their own way! gotta spin those wheels in resolve to get a good match!
What do you think of the final quality of the OG vs sony fx30. Both are crop sensors.
fx30 is more crisp, and more what you'd expect from a modern camera today. the BM also only does 1080. now the newer BM cameras vs fx30.. that's a different story, but still depends heavily on your needs.
Ending 👌🏻
😇🫡
Mr. Westropp I have a Canon Gx7 Mark ii but I have a feeling there are other more appropriate cameras for a beginner in cinematography. Do you have any other recommendations other than the blackmagic? Thanks for all the info you give!
Hey! Anything that you can attach lenses to, and shoot log with. The newer Blackmagic full frame is a great option bc it has a large sensor, shoots log, and raw, and can basically mimic shooting on any other sensor size. You don’t need a camera that shoots raw, but log I would definitely reccomend, along with lens versatility. Sony fx3 and fx30 pretty nice too! Also people say good things about the sigma FP, but I haven’t used it.
@@BlaineWestropp1 Many thanks!
Looks like an S9 to me... jajajaj kiding.
😂😂😂
8:30 that’s actually some solid advice.
thank you :)
I keep reminding my friends, if you can’t make it look good on the camera you already have: an Alexa won’t make it look better.
100% true!
So much truth. All about your lighting and LENSES.
👌
I love my bmpcc og but need to use it more 🌱
It’s a gem
I still Love that camera. most cinematic camera ive have used.
It’s a true gem
Yes. How is manual focusing that little lumix lens?
nightmare lol. it has a motorized focus rocker on the side of the lens. so no focus ring. but it works with the auto focus button on the camera. so to get focus, I will use that button, let it find focus, then roll.
I've gotten used to it, there's also pretty much no other lens that stabilizes this well and is this small with the range.
What lens was this shot on? The barreling is pretty cool. Like the wide too.
me talking was shot on an atlas mercury 42mm!
This is where it all began.
The beginning of time. After the 5D of course.
The 3 biggest moments that got us here were the Red One that cut the price of Hollywood cameras by 2/3. The Canon 5D MKII (and subsequently T2i, 7D and Panasonic GHII) that showed what you could get out of these photo sensors and that ther was a market for prosumers that went beyond giant sensored camcorders. And the OG Blackmagic Pocket that took what Red did with revolutionizing pricing and what Canon and Panasonic were doing and put it into a beautifully small form factor.
@@steppedon man I remember the 5D and 7D days like it was yesterday. With magiclantern RAW installed it was game over. I felt powerful up until the release of the OG BMPCC, that blew my mind. Look at us now with everyone bowing down to the fx3.. we came a long way!
lol at the dog ❤
Needs his screen time
Which variable nd do you have for the little Lumix lens?
I have gone out of town, I will check when I return and get back to you!
@@BlaineWestropp1any chance you can tell me the brand of vnd?
Those friggin batteries though
Just need a fanny pack 😂
What camera should I buy?
😂😂 I hear imax has a new camera on the horizon.
Can you do an episode with that camera?
like make a full RUclips video with it? if that's what you mean... 100% yes :)
@@BlaineWestropp1 yup, thats what i meant. Just to see how usable it can be and the limitations, doesnt have to be long either. Thanks 🙏
I like ‘youtube drama’ term and 32mm
😁😎 it is actually the 35.
Still have my OG Production Camera 4K!
Another gem
All my work is here ❤
❤️
How far we have fallen digitally to love a camera that does not even reach the sole of the shoes of the film stock from 40 years ago... LOL
I love and hate this camera. I bought it the same day it went on sale. No current prosumer camera gives me that feeling of a natural organic look practically instantly.
It's a shame they don't continue making these sensors.
These sensors are really great. I love this camera! It is wild to love the older sensors, even the Alexa… it’s 👌
@@BlaineWestropp1 I'd love an Alexa Classic this size. S16 sensor enough, one less problem for the focus puller. But please, no more Sony sensors thanks
You didn’t talk about the Fairchild sensor. Super important.
I know. I know :((
I still have this💪 Have shot some of the best stuff on here... Have shot some of the worst stuff haha. Such an amazing camera
Hahah love it. I feel the same.
🐐
👌
I have this camera and love the image but I have not got to play with it much yet because I’m looking after sick parents.
I also need a tripod and some nd filters for my canon FD lenses and I’m ready to shoot.
I hope you can get it working and I hope your parents get are okay and get better 💪
Thanks, both parents with cancer is not fun.
Quick question. I have the 14-42 which variable nd do you have on yours?
what's the panasonic/lumix drama? I missed it
Lumix announced s9, invited people to Japan to test it out, bunch of videos about the camera posted online (naturally). it sparked a debate about gear reviews, and the complexities of recommending equipment that has been given to you, or a significant trip or money related to camera review.
AltCine has just made an OLPF for the OG BMPCC and BMMCC, cheaper than the Rawlite for reducing moire!
I need it!
May I know what is the tripod and the base on top of it that you are using at 1:45 ?? It looks heavy and there seems to be one more thing on top of it on which the camera is.
It’s an oconor 2575, with the plate and dovetail. There is a chance we just went dovetail only to the tripod without the additional plate. I can’t remember. It is very heavy. :)
@@BlaineWestropp1 hmm then why not use sachtler flowtech 75 instead of that?
❤❤
😇
prices are skyrocking for this piece of the past. lucky I have mine , wanted to get a second body though hehehe
Are the prices really going up? This is good for us now!
still a great camera
its a gem!
4:31 - I'd say the Sigma FP is the closest thing to it. Even does cDNG too.
Haven’t used the FP, really need to test it out.
Can't find one anywhere online.
Gotta go to eBay!
Another crazy camera from BM is URSA og. Not as good for travels as a pocket 😅
Ya know I don’t think I’ve ever used the ursa og.
:) i agree
😎
Pre-ordered it back then and sold it on day one because the two batteries lastet only 5min. The powerbank solution wasn't possible then.
Uh oh! 😕 I swear the batteries I have now are so much better than what I remember. They last for like 40 minutes
Was the shot at 3:32 shot on the OG?
If so, damn, and that just furthers my love of the OG/BMMCC
Ahhh that shot was shot on 35mm film! I should have noted that. Everything else was the BM cam.
Okay yeah that makes more sense because I was like holy shit haha
Still love my BMMCC dearly, although I must admit you have me considering the new BMCC6k FF 😂
I have one that just gave out on me recently wont turn on any help?
Hmm what happened to it? You could try to contact Blackmagic but I have no idea if they service them still.
@@BlaineWestropp1 yea i did they dont was hoping to find someone who can fix it
I’d look into camera repair shops. But even then, this may be a tough one. Where are you located?
@@BlaineWestropp1 nyc
There’s gotta be a place around here. Let me ask around.
can you honestly shoot this handheld without any other accessories? Im looking to shoot casually and occasionally on a tripod recording my music
bros hair is sick

My favorite camera of all time. As groundbreaking as the 5D Mark II in my opinion. I really enjoyed using old Kern Paillard Switar lenses on it. The image is stunningly beautiful.
Love it. I loved the 5D as well, but this one in particular felt really nice to use for capturing video, where the 5D felt like a stills camera. Still used both a lot!
I think they try to recreate the same feel with Blackmagic app for iphone.
Definitely. The app is nice. There are a few updates I think it needs but still nice!
@@BlaineWestropp1 true but i would love to buy new mft pocket which would be similar to gen 1. Still I think phones killed this segment.
