The bogus pretense that BRAW isn't raw is bogus. The reason that BMD doesn't support ProResRaw is that ProResRaw is a closed, proprietary format, and it's controlled by a company with a long...

Updating the title would be a good idea... since it refers to raw video as if raw video is a new thing, which it's not...

This article seems a bit behind the times... I've been using raw video for ten years, so it's not like it's a new thing. And the fact that FCPX has fairly rough color management and color controls...

With a history like Fuji's that's to be expected. Fuji's been making lenses for a long time, and for a lot of high end companies like Hasselblad.

Yes, partly because I started out in film using film. :)

Make sure that you have the frame rates matched on both devices. That's the most common reason I've found for sync drift when using timecode.

Looks like I was right.

Projecting much?

I don't know if the provided skies have enough resolution for your 100 megapixel images, but that isn't really a big issue since you can choose your own skies. So you can create skies with ...

Hopefully this isn't too late, but if you get a Tentacle sync box (or one of its competitors) you can jam sync the mixer to the Tentacle, and then run the Tentacle timecode continuously to the ...

I've had good success with my fp and a Ronin-S. I don't think that the communication part will ever be on the table though; the fp uses the USB-C port for recording, and with the gimbal connected ...

I didn't miss your point. BSI doesn't only enable tighter pixel pitch, it also moves circuitry out from in front of the photo sites, allowing them to gather more light. It's win-win whether you ...

Of course it's important. More light gathering ability leads to less noise. It's not like it's a choice between reducing CFA crosstalk and efficiency. We get to have both.

BSI provides a nice boost to light gathering ability, which enables either lower noise at a given resolution or more resolution without sacrificing noise performance at a given sensor size.

There are a few Chinese semicos that make sensors, one of which was working with Panasonic until it acquired Panasonic's sensor division. I wonder if that company has grown up, as it were?

It...

I'm very curious about what the situation is like in China. From what I've heard Kinefinity is pretty big out there, big enough that Kinefinity didn't even try to make a push into the US market....

Log rolloff in the highlights does make them easier to deal with. My preference to be honest would be to have the choice between log and linear in raw, and for the non-raw options a 'video' and a ...

Log encoding makes the highlight rolloff more forgiving, which in turn will make it easier for beginners to save footage from their mistakes. Or from not having things like ND filters yet. So we ...

i agree, especially since it doesn't have a log profile right now. Linear encoding is unforgiving with highlight and shadow handling without significantly more dynamic range, and there's also a ...

Some might also be waiting until things start to turn around, because there will be more people inclined to make such purchases then. Right now it's hard to justify shelling out a lot of money for ...
