    Expendables 2 was the worst looking film I've seen recently...

    The likely story, or just the budget didn't allow the coverage, editor got it, started crying, decided to punch in on a lot of stuff.

    Expendables 2 was the worst looking film I've seen recently...

    The noise you were seeing, I'd wager, came from post reframing decisions to save scenes that didn't have the right coverage. I haven't seen the movie, but from what you describe that's exactly what you would get when you crop and recompose footage. However, it's a pretty common practice and if...

    Blackmagic Deisgn 2.5K Raw S16 -- for 2,999.99 - July

    Ah gotcha. I wish I was new to RAW for the release of this camera. A lot of what people are excited about I got over several years ago. =[ I'm missing out on the vriginal hubub. Indeed, this is pretty much what a "digital cinema camera" is about. Once you see people doing their comparisons...

    Man that grade is... challenging... looks like it got Magic Bulleted to death. =[ Seeing that more often that not, though. I guess that's in?

    Nice. Where'd you win it from? That's what I'll be rocking as soon as I hear the camera's on the way. The guys over at Viewfactor are pretty cool dudes. Oh, and the strap, rugged.

    Blackmagic Deisgn 2.5K Raw S16 -- for 2,999.99 - July

    Hmmmm .. Honestly, and I'm trying not to use any sweeping generalizations or statements, I really think it's the only camera out there with an image that deserves the title "baby Alexa", and one of three cameras that actually produce an image that doesn't feel "digital." It's a slight bit...

    NON sexualized female lead movies

    I think Nick brings up some good points, which lead me back to a conclusion that I had a long time ago... You really can't do anything with a female lead and not get criticized for misrepresenting women in some form or fashion. Not even a female director can do it. Maybe if you only write...

    archived-videos Fight Scene from 2010 Feature Length Film

    These are both on the same exact level to me. Both could've used a much more specific approach to camera, as the actors aren't selling the action they're trying to deliver. Good try to both of you.

    Blackmagic Deisgn 2.5K Raw S16 -- for 2,999.99 - July

    Since I've started, I've always been on the bleeding edge in most cases if I can afford what's coming out, or can justify the cost with upcoming jobs. I had a GH1 before it was even released in the US, a D90 before it was released, some more expensive toys day of release, in all cases you just...

    At this point if you really think you're going to want one you should pre-order from one of the listed retailers. BH might work out. I can imagine anyone putting in an order just now won't get one until christmas or early next year.

    That's an interesting thought. I think this comes up with every new camera that's not a shoulder mount format or traditional. Honestly, it Doesn't look any less practical for the field than a DSLR or an EPIC (which is an ergonomic nightmare). Just looks Another camera starving for aftermarket...

    Just posts on other forums. I wouldn't be surprised if it were backed up til next year. It's evolutionary more so. It'll likely produce an image that's closer to Alexa than anything else out there under Alexa, so that's saying a lot. Thing is, like you said, dunno if I would wait if I weren't...

    Canon 5D M2 + Panasonic GH2 for feature...

    That depends on who's eyes are looking at it. I absolutely dislike Canon color, and as long as you set WB right on GH2 the skin always comes out much healthier looking to me. Also, I only pay attention to bokeh on beauty shots/shooting, never narrative. So, not sure about that. GH2 looks...

    Canon 5D M2 + Panasonic GH2 for feature...

    It is stark on a large screen. I don't know if you can get access to a theater to check it out, but I've done it many times (from 30 feet to 60feet--ArcLight Theater in Hollywood) and it is damned obvious. That's why I said if you stick the MKii in a space where it's the...
