      Hello Alex,
      is it true that the camera has no auto focus? Blackmagic says that the camera will be good for sports productions. But without auto focus I would have a big problem with that.

    • @AlexPettitt
      @AlexPettitt  2 года назад +1

      @@maximilianschmidt7432 It has autofocus but it is not continuous autofocus. You basically press and hold the screen on an area each time to trigger the camera to focus. If your subject changes you need to re trigger it. If you're not confident in using manual focus for your sporting event, I would probably recommend you looking at cameras that have continuous autofocus built in instead :) Hope this helps

    Nice! Thanks for all the great Blackmagic related videos, mate! Truly appreciate them 🙏🏼 These new cameras look solid! I think for a one-man studio setup, it’s really convenient with a flip out screen, so it’s kind of a bummer to have that amazing screen which I would rarely look at. Is the microstudio4k discontinued? What little monitors would you recommend with quality to match for a camera like these?

    • @AlexPettitt
      @AlexPettitt  2 года назад +3

      Hey, yeah I agree with you, a screen that has some move-ability would definitely be nice! In terms of external monitors, I use a lot of BM's Video Assists. I fine them great!

    • @truecuckoo
      @truecuckoo 2 года назад +1

      @@AlexPettitt thanks. I had a high end BM video assist for some time. Very nice. But in my closeup environment with a mic close-by, I found the Assist’s fan noise just about a notch too much for my setup. Now I’m just using a big cheap HD-TV. For keeping an eye on the composition, focus, histogram, audio levels and recording status. I’m thinking of getting a smaller portable HDMI monitor though. 12-15” or something.

  • @daylight5500
    @daylight5500 2 года назад +6

    Great info, thanks. I started working in broadcast TV on a 2 camera Outside Broadcast truck. This was the state of the art gear at the time. Cost hundred of thousands to put together. Now one can put together a 4 camera video recording studio/OB setup for around $10,000.00. Nuts! We live in exciting times. The fixed monitor situation is a bit of a pain in the rear but I am sure it has to do with cost cutting. BMD have been made aware of this from the very start when these designs first came out. Question for you, if program video can be fed back to the screen, that would permit you to use this as a monitor when not used as a camera?

    From everything I've heard BMSC is a great studio camera for multicam set ups, but when you wanna use it as a regular "run & gun" camera is where it falls short (on top of it being a MFT mount) and you'd go better with a Sony or equivalent prosumer camcorder

    Super helpful. I'm thinking of investing in the Studio Plus as I already have an ATEM Mini Extreme ISO switcher. I do mainly livestreams and I need to update my cameras. I love that you're using the Sigma 16mm lens with it as that's one of my favorite lenses on my Canon M50 cameras. The Canons are nice but their limitations are really starting to bother me. I subscribed. Keep up the good work.

    Here's a stupid question, do you need to use an ATEM mini to live stream with a Blackmagic Design camera? Say we're just running over a video transmitter like Hollyland Mars 400s, and into a camlink or video capture card on the other side plugged into our computer. Could you use OBS to do all the switching "in house"? I know you would have more functionality probably running through an ATEM, but would that work?

      The barrel power connector works with 12-18V so you can use a V-Mount battery with the appropriate cable. Or probably even a car jump starter that has a sufficiently-large sealed lead acid battery in it. That'd be a simple cig lighter to 5.5mm DC cable.

    I have been searching around quite a bit and have it not yet found a solution to my situation. In short, I want to connect my ATM Mini Extreme Iso switcher to one of the new black magic 4K plus cameras via HDMI. However the problem is in our permanent install situation, I need a cabling distance of 200'.
    I have yet to get a definitive answer from anyone on whether this is possible with HDMI, including the option of some of the optical and or Active HDMI cables, or even an HDMI over cat six conversion set up.
    Obviously I want to maintain the two way communication option to be able to control the camera from the switcher.
    Any guidance here is greatly appreciated
    Best Regards, Tim

    Where are you recording your audio to? It looks like you're using the 3.5mm jack to your ATEM mic input. Where do you plug in your USB for it?
    I have the NT-USB as well and I tried out my brand new ATEM and my first attempt I got a lot of loud electronic screeching sounds.
    I came back a few hours later to diagnose and it went away. Not sure your recommendations for how you setup your mic in this studio. Hopefully you have a video on that.

      I see no reason why not as the camera can provide phantom power. Although the pre-amps in the camera are incredibly clean, so might not even need a cloudlifter :)

    Hi, would you happen to have any recommended remote heads to control pan & tilt via control room?
    Also, I understand it records RAW ONLY internally but what if I'm trying to send signal to my ATEM switcher can I manipulate it to ProRes through the SDI output? Thanks!

    • @AlexPettitt
      @AlexPettitt  2 года назад +1

      Hey Rosalia, the best one I’ve seen is the DJI RS2 with a Middle Things controller. This gives full control of Pan & Tilt & all camera controls.
      The SDI output is uncompressed, so if you attach a recorder that records in ProRes via SDI then you can record to that. For example, a Hyperdeck Mini will record the SDI output from the camera In either Pro Res or H.264 :)

    • @AlexPettitt
      @AlexPettitt  2 года назад

      Right now, talkback is not supported by the ATEM Mini range, you need to have an SDI based ATEM that has both SDI in and SDI out for return (as the talkback uses SDI channel 15 & 16 in the return feed). Hope this helps

    Same sensor as the BMPCC 4K, but I got trapped by the Studio not doing ProRes - I had a very tight workflow built around ProRes and didn't do my homework/testing on the Studio 4K+ before using it on a job. It caused a lot of issues in post...my own fault, but beware.

      It’s the lens you have to think about. Having a good zoom (and focus) on a high end camcorder can be very helpful….. but the Studio camera Pro would probably be cheaper. For a church, get the Pro (not Plus) to make use of the SDI for long cable run, and XLR for audio from a PA desk. I’m thinking about the same thing now, as our SDI camcorder needs replacing.

    Yes, "World's Best Camera Audio" picks up the camera fan noise just fine! 😞
    There are VERY limited applications for on-camera microphones.
    Two that I can think of are: B-roll shots of breaking waves at the seashore,
    or B-roll shots of motor races (laps, pit activity, etc.)
    In both of those cases, the audio is there for authenticity, not for dialog, etc.
    and the sounds you are recording (surf, racecars) is significantly above the fan noise "floor".
