    [tony west] “It has HDMI output which seems more a video need. (go into any consumer monitor rather than a high end one that only takes SDI)”

    Not in the 4K world. There is a lot of use of HDMI. Just depends on the spec involved. Remember, you have high-quality internal recording, so HDMI gives you a simple, universal single-cable output.

    No doubt. I like it being there, just seems like they could have tossed the filter wheel in there also, since we are talking about convenience.

    That makes sense. And the windows must be made out of that Star Trek “transparent aluminum” since everybody inside is so blasé.

    Who needs a filter wheel for this or the URSA – bigger cameras let you strap on the big boy toys…

    I got your “FILTER WHEEL” right here – it’s called an Arri SMB-1!

    [Tim Wilson] “As a result, I don’t see exposure as any less important…but it’s no longer THE thing wrt setting up the picture. “

    I don’t know about that. Every sensor, tube, emulsion, whatever has its sweet spot where you want the image to live. They all have a toe/shoulder failure or rolloff and nothing is ever, ever linear. There’s another thing about optical physics, which is depth of field. That depends entirely on your aperture and exposure. Unless we have z-depth focus mapping imbedded as another layer of metadata, I for one would rather see shallow focus in-camera than a bunch of piled-on blur FX.

    It’s gotta be the future…. all three crew are clones.

    wonder if they’re on OT after 3.33 hours?

    That’s awesome Bill if you have time to use it.

    So often we get into that run and gun situation.

    Even shooting an interview inside and then b-roll of the person outside their house feeding horses.

    It would be cool to have the option when you need it and I need it a lot : )
