Nauticam - BMPCC 4K

SSD holder with drive in situ. As you can see it’s made specifically for the T5 drive - not sure anything else would fit

 

No, I got 2x the 1TB drives. Thought it would be safer.

 

Says transfer rates are 540MBs using USB3.1 Gen2

 

Write / Read speeds according to a quick test are 420MBs write / 430MBs read on my old work MacBookPro (non USB-C only USB3.0) using the BM Drive Speed tester.

 

Will test with my 2018 MacBookPro (with USB-C) later

Another sample from the BMPCC4K underwater, from

This looks awesome. Feeling any constraints working with the micro 4/3'rds sensor?

Still waiting for a clip in clear blue water, with high dynamic range scenes and strong color contrast to evaluate the camera and the BRAW. So far all clips are easy non demanding clips for the camera mainly due to bad visibility.

I don't see reasons to switch camera so far

Those type of videos don’t really show the camera potential then i wonder of any will. I was in bahamas shooting the surface and bright sand black sharks and I had no clipping

Maybe it's his choice but colors appear washed out to me (like in the previous video) and a bit soft too. Like seeing log clips before applying a LUT.

He knows his job anyway.

Hahaha I did not read description.

I casted the link directmy on my tv. Sorry.

RTFD

Finally got delivery of the USB-C 90’ degree adaptors from amazon.

Definitely takes some of the strain off the ports (hearing some horror stories about how they are crap on the BMPCC4K forums)

(FYI The Nauticam cable set is the same adaptors, but with a AngelBird 22cm USB-C cable.)

From some testing in the pool last week. The camera with the WWL fitted is around -440g negative and very front heavy. Interestingly adding my Inferno, not only gets the in-water wait to around -180g (fresh) but also completely makes the whole thing sit flat in the water. Let it go and it stays in the horizontal position and very very slowly sinks without and tilting. Bonus.

I am not sure if publishing to youtube in HD that means a really small bitrate does this clip any favour. On my 5K monitor it looks terrible

Still nothing to rave about. The shots are very shallow so they should have been more vibrant and a custom white balance would help. We ve seen images from many other cameras in that depth range which looked good straight out of the box.

OMG...

I would say this clip is actually the opposite and it must be down to compression in the first 20 seconds the reflections are full of artefacts the situation improves around 1 minute but overall looks bad

Of all the clips so far the only one that gives a real idea is the one from backscatter the rest are not relevant or actually not helping sell this camera

More clips from Australia

I think this give an excellent idea that if the colours are not there to start there no magic raw to bring them back

I think the colours and tonality look great.

He was shooting in ProRes for whatever reasons, you would think the whole idea of the BM cameras is using RAW for the 12bit mind.

You can achieve those colours shooting 50mbps i think he white balance on sand. Anyway still nothing to rave about

He has another clip on vimeo that gad more variety of shots but can’t be embedded
