Wow! This is really well executed! Nice job Ryan-
If you don't mind, could you elaborate a little on working with the 5D3ML vs. the other cameras? I'm sure i'm not the only one interested =]

Thanks!

Scarlet was A-cam.

5D3 & BMPCC were B-cam/crash cam/Glidecam 4000HD

We preferred the 5D3 in the day over the Pocket, for the FF aesthetic, and since we didn't have Pocket-raw yet.

At night, we found the Pocket beat both cameras for any shots requiring ISO 1600. It smoked the Scarlet in low light. @ ISO 1600 it had cleaner blacks and much better DR than 5D3-raw.

We also mounted the Pocket to the Scarlet for dual focal lengths in some scenes. This went amazingly well (see attachment). Every filmmaker should have a Pocket in their bag.scarlet_bmpcc.jpgredmagic.jpg

Nice work. Thanks for sharing. That is actually a really great idea with the pocket cam mounted on top of the A-cam.
