DITs may do data management, but it's not their sole responsibility. Someone who just dumps footage is a loader. A DIT should be able to provide one-lights, create different transcodes for dailies,...

5 MB per frame. At 24 fps, that's 120MB/s or 960Mb/s

EDIT: Nevermind, you found it

Think you're putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5. The Epic-M upgrade starting tomorrow is to bring the Epic-Ms up to spec with the -Xs (new heatsink, new fan, new mounting points, new antenna, new...

Kinda like how people onscreen fire weapons indoors all nonchalant - even a handgun that sounds like nothing outside will definitely get your ears ringing inside.

And don't get me started on...

That's always how I understood it. Pre-NAB 2011, the official word was that the Epic would not have sensor upgrades like the Red One did to the MX sensor - that the Monstro line of sensors would each...

Question is, how much does a 4K external recorder cost?

I agree with that, especially about banding (in the case of dslrs). For what it's worth, my post wasn't directed at you, but at clearing up confusion that OP expressed with hearing differing views,...

Going flatter for the sake of grading is all well and good, but even then, there has to be some semblance of placement and ratios. You can overexpose a scene intended to be darker, or flatten the...

Most likely missing (probably a mistake).

The point remains that the reported max continuous shoot rate is 6fps, meaning no 24fps (let alone 30 or 60). It would be at least theoretically possible...

Well, If you're using the 5" touchscreen, you basically just tap on the options and dial it in. Besides the obvious options up top, you can adjust audio input levels by tapping the level meters in...

Reiterating/confirming a bit of what you and JPM have said - the operation and interface is identical between the Scarlet and the Epic (having worked with both). The only differences (besides the...

Noticed the same thing when editing a 5D short - except the difference ranged between 1 and 3 frames.

And cover up any part of the greenscreen that's not crossing the subject, and especially anything not in frame. the screen is basically a giant bounce. Smaller bounce with same light = less spill.

this is an example of a lens designed for 16mm being used on a G1. because the image circle for 16mm is smaller than micro 4/3, the lens does not...

That's exactly what it's like. And a 50mm designed for M4/3 would look exactly the same. A 50mm designed for Super-16mm would also look exactly the same, except it would likely vignette pretty...

A 50 is a 50 is a 50. For field of view, it doesn't matter what format a lens was initially designed for, it will always have the field of view permitted by the sensor size for that focal length. To...

True Grit was shot on 35mm. Though I do remember hearing about some shots (pickups or 2nd Unit or some such) being on Alexa. Deakins is an ARRI man.

EDIT: Deakins mentioning shooting inserts on...

I certainly didn't mean to impugn any of the hard work and ingenuity that went into the development of this feature. I just wanted to respond to some questions and control some expectations from some...

Read my earlier post.

ISO isn't like it is in film - where there are stocks with different sensitivity. You can't change the sensor's sensitivity, you can just change the amount of light hitting...

I may get ML for my T2i to check this out, but I certainly have my reservations...

Motion interpolation. From what I understand form the explanation in the video, you have essentially two streams...

Yes, but If you're trying to keep the same field of view between different sensor sizes, you need different focal lengths (or different distance to subject)

You could always just buy the camera with a PL mount instead of getting both mounts. That's a $1500 difference, not $2200. The Rocket is useful, but not necessary if you have a decent system and work...

Yeah, it wouldn't be an issue. The SDI/HDMI on the Epic/Scarlet send out a 1080p or 720p downscale from the full sensor. You still have to window for highspeed, though. And, as with other cameras,...
