Thanks for the info.

I was planning on getting a Zeiss 18mm and 30mm but you’ve really got me thinking…which is always bad.

I may have to get the Sigma too!

I found the BMC at NAB on the last day of the show. I pretty much freaked. I had been waiting for the Red Scarlet for years but when it finally came out it was so much more expensive that the original guesstimates I had to pass.

Finally with the BMC release a true RAW workflow is not only affordable but amazing. Your article here on the Cow confirmed exactly what I was thinking after the show. It’s great to see Blackmagic getting this camera out pretty close to schedule but it’s fantastic to see the results the camera can deliver when used by pros.

It’s shocking to see the shot aimed at her headlight. There’s detail where no other camera even close to this price point could deliver.

Your work has me totally stoked awaiting the camera to arrive.

Marco, really great job! I loved the video and the tests you put the BMC through.

I’m impressed the way the Sigma quality holds up running with the L glass.
I like many have the BMC on order and are struggling to get the right lenses.

The crop factor is obviously the challenge for me to really know which lenses will work best for my situation.

It would be great if you could put up even a lo-res version of the movie up with a graphic overlay showing which lens was used on each shot. I know this would answer questions a lot of us are attempting to answer.

A huge THANK YOU to you, John Brawley and the other pros who have taken the time to show all of us the power of this camera.
