You can't make an adapter with the same mounts on both sides. As soon as you do that, you change the flange distance. Do a little research on adapters and flange distance and you'll see what were talking about and how only certain mounts can be made to work with certain mounts....if that makes sense.

Review of the BMPCC with a Voigtlander f0.95 25mm and Metabones Speedbooster.

@Flaaandeeers Thanks for the reply. I know about these threads. But my question was specificly about the bmpcc because the adapters you listed is from different mounts to mft. I'm looking for a adapter for mft lenses to the mft bmpcc. I'm looking for something that makes the image from my mft lenses smaller to fit the bmpcc sensor.

I would like to have a speed booster for mft which squeezed the light for the bmpcc sensor to get the intended focal length and more light. So I could use my old lenses like I'm used to do on the GH2. Does anyone know if something like that is being developed or is it any technical problems with the concept?

This might be an old question, but I haven't seen any answers to it.

I really impressed by The One movie, and it make me thinking again about this camera, I have wide choice MFT lenses. But... I'd like to see more ungraded footage with normal (not flat preset) with nice natural colors. Not all footage that I make with GH2 go to grade, and I very like GH2's out from camera picture without need to grade. There are many situations where we want nice out of camera picture. No teal-orange, no Captain Hook, no work over night at DaVinci at deadline.

Ergh. My tekserve experience was not-so-good. I placed my order yesterday shortly after @vicharris and the pre-charge showed up on my credit card, but I got no confirmation email. Since the item still showed as "in stock" this morning, I called and they said their inventory count is off and that they're sold out of them. It always takes a few days for credit card authorizations to clear. Very annoying. Anyway, the point is tekserve are out. Don't believe their site when it says "in stock."

@DocoDocoMan Image detail looks very good in this video. The only issue I'm seeing with moire/aliasing is a super-small almost imperceptible type of static/movement on the strings. Not sure if that is considered moire, but I think that's right. I was looking for it and still had to squint when looking on a 17" display, and even then I wasn't so sure if I was really seeing something. Image quality of BMPCC with Zeiss seems very good. Maybe not the most "cinematic" or "film-like", but it's very clean, and I'm sure it would be a different look if the lighting was setup differently for a narrative shoot, and then graded in editing. Thanks for posting.

@markr041 The clip was not in anyway intended to be final polished product, perhaps it I should have made that more clear.

"By Way Of Cuba" (

) was intended as a piece of test footage to examine how well the BMPCC handles detail, aliasing and moire when compared to a hacked GH2. Hence the use of the high quality Zeiss Glass. I note that even after the footage was downsized to 720p and mangled by Vimeo's compression the windings on the piano strings are quite discernible, with a minimum of aliasing and when I examine the footage closely I cannot make out much moire at all despite the crisscross of the strings against their shadows.

The audio in the clip was from the BMPCC internal mic at the default settings and was not considered to be part of the testing.

My personal view is that the BMPCC and the Zeiss 9.5mm Super Speed Mk I make a great match, does anyone disagree?

If anyone has comments on the moire or lack thereof I would be interested to hear them.

Ugh.

@vicharris

Seems as though I shouldn't ask any questions at all then since everything is answered with a simple search. So I guess I will need to join another forum or search for another forum to ask the same exact questions? This is the exact reason that I am asking these questions so that I can possibly save some time and learn off of others who already have experience with these cameras. Forgive me if I am wrong but isn't one of benefits of joining forums to help others?

@vicharris

Be softer, pair of links will be more useful.

I was going to pass on the BMPCC but since they have fixed the blooming issue it seems to be a very good value and may be worth it to add to my quiver.

I have a question about the sharpness of both the BMCC and BMPCC which one is sharper? This is really important to me because I am spoiled with the GH2's image quality (sharpness) so I want something as close as possible in terms of sharpness. Really I can go either way in regard to the cameras but am leaning towards the BMCC.

In regard to glass I was thinking about purchasing the Tokina AT-X 16-28 2.8 to use with the BMPCC/BMCC. I have other Nikon glass for everything except the really wide stuff. These are some of the accessories that I already have to use with the BMCC/BMPCC. I have a shoulder rig, matte box, follow focus, external battery, ssd hard drives, and various types of external microphones. Is there anything that I missed that would make shooting with these cameras any easier.

I also had a question about lowlight performance. How does the BMPCC/BMCC compare to the GH2 in terms of lowlight performance. Is there a major difference or is it minimal at best?

For editing I have an Intel Mac Pro and a fairly new 15" Retina MacBook Pro, 2.6 Ghz, 16gb ram Nvidia GT650m will these computers be able to edit raw with DaVinci Resolve? I don't plan on shooting raw due to the workflow and file sizes but it would be nice to know what I need if I choose to shoot raw.
