I've been working for a production company full-time for the last few months and we use the blackmagic Ursa mini pro.
Yesterday I needed to take 3 cameras on a shoot but could only take 2 because everyone was on different shoots at the same time. So i grabbed my nx1 in addition to 2 Ursa minis and away we go.
I set up the nx1 as a single shot closeup on an interview with a famous basketball player.
I set it to normal dynamic range (the show aired hours after the interview so I needed as little post work flow as possible, I normally shoot in gamma dr) , sharpness - 10, and Kelvin white balance to match the Ursa mini and used one of our zeiss 85mm cinema primes through a EF - nx adapter.
After getting back to the office I pulled all the footage in and compared and the footage matched really, really well
We also have a 5dmkiii that we use sometimes if the blackmagic is too big/cumbersome for a situation and it's video always stands out as subpar when cut together with the Ursa footage. But I am happy to report that the nx1 looks phenomenal and matches perfectly. If you weren't looking for it you wouldn't be able to tell that it was a different camera.
