EVA1: New EVA1 footage is here

This review is meant for the users. It shows B roll style shots typical of documentary / ENG etc shot on latest firmware as at October 9, 2017 and also two sequences that were shot on very early beta firmware (same as other pieces released).

The sequences are virtually identical, however the first is shot very uncontrolled with a basic two light set up. Something like a typical run and gun situation may be like and is what many users asked me for. The second is a full light lock version I've called - Light it baby. I have taken a little creative licence with this opting to add a very subtle flaring here and there to suit the mood.

All shots are graded with the standard Color board within FCPX, albeit 7-8 nodes per shot.

We were not provided any resources by Panasonic outside the camera itself and utilising gear provided by Lemac, John Barry Sales, Con Filippidis and myself, put this together very low budget style.

If there's a will there's a way.

Updated first post and added a couple of teaser stills for you.
Nice, Noel! I'm impatient waiting for your footage! What version of EVA1's firmware did you shot with? One near to final? I noticed that 2500 ISO shot is very clear, without any noise. Thanks! :-)
 
I stayed up for this...
And then checked first thing this morning
And googled it in case not posted here but elsewhere
Why set a hyper specific date if there’s no commitment to keep it?

I think that Noel Evans is very busy, because also on Facebook he delays to respond. But I suspect that the footage will be posted on the VARICAM AND EVA1's youtube page (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiTi9owcTE9QbEnt5w2vkDA/videos). I hope that tonight or tomorrow we'll see the footage.
 
Maybe this is another tease that's a part of the marketing campaign...continue to keep everyone on edge.

I'm sure he's just super busy tho.
 
Just more confusing marketing from Panasonic. Maybe it's Eva herself that is confused?

I heard she's trapped in Harvey Weinstein's hotel room.

I should add, looking at both the stills, I'm guessing the silence is noise related - they look almost solarised. Why would anyone post these for camera evaluation? I hope it's due to jpg compression...

I didn't want to say anything so not to offend the thin skinned. But this is the reason I asked if the stills had grain added to them.

I wonder if the footage wasn't released for damage control reasons. Maybe it was wacked before it even hit the web. The silence after an announcement with a solid date and time is strange. Let' see.
