The cameras are:
Sony F65
Sony F5
Arri Alexa

Exciting to watch how this shootout comes out. They said they will start posting results from the black magic camera first in the coming weeks.

Love the shot of the GoPro mounted on a oconnor head! LOL!

Hi,

I've now had my Blackmagic cinema cam delivered and would definitely support a forum here.

Thank you Manish, and others -- we'll have the forum then. Will advise shortly. Much appreciated,

Thanks Chris for the upcoming forum for the BMCC here.
The expertise and insights of the folks that frequent this community are valued much.
From my perception, they also appear to tend toward the more positive and helpful versus the negative.

Re: Black Magic Cinema Camera
 

Agreed. It's weird being on a forum that is not just filled with trash talkers.

Re: Black Magic Cinema Camera
 

For all, supplier I ordered from says they are now seeing signs of new shipments coming soon. It appears the issues at Black Magic are getting worked out at last.

Re: Black Magic Cinema Camera
 

they have over 8800 units on Backorder

Re: Black Magic Cinema Camera
 

Just curious where you found that number Scott?

Re: Black Magic Cinema Camera
 

That Andrew Julian video is nothing short of brilliant. Great to see you can grade the footage to the degree he did without adverse consequences. I've shot from Big Sur to Carmel several times and the water is often the color shown in that video so I doubt it's as enhanced as some think.

Re: Black Magic Cinema Camera
 

I have my doubts on that number.....especially knowing how many people that I know that cancelled their orders for various reasons over the last few months......but I could be mistaken.

Heard about this in a magazine. The stuff looks pretty good to me.

That Matt Jenkins gets around (although that's probably WA. Don't recognise the beach flora though. Botany fail.)
