However when he wants that Super 16 view, he can shoot in HD 1920x1080. 0.71x1.9x=1.35x crop factor versus 1.42x crop for the URSA Mini 4.6K sensor he mentioned. If he used a ‘full frame’ lens like the Canon FD and a SpeedBooster with a focal reduction of 0.71x, he would have a field of view wider than Super 35 for general purpose use. The BMPCC4K has a sensor that’s 18.96mm wide open gate 4096x2160 with a 4.63 micron photosite.

This is what he could do to get that desired look.

Would appreciate any opinions or advice on the thought of going ahead using the pocket 4k with the FDs as my main camera to achieve a more vintage look.ĭenny that’s a good recommendation, but I think if the intent is as follows, he will be in the ballpark of S16, actually slightly smaller. I feel like all I'm loosing moving to the Pocket 4k from my UMP is in-built NDs, the 4.6k which I rarely use and a couple stops of dynamic range while actually gaining the ISO function over 800. Whats really got me excited is the small form factor and mobility of the camera along with its features against the UMP which Ergonomically I have not been to pleased with and my FDs get an additional x1.2 crop on such and loose a stop of light. I intend on shooting a few shorts and an upcoming feature with such. I'm really looking to emulate a stylized 16mm look moving forward and hoping that this setup will pay off. I have sold all my Samyang Primes (very sick of them but great value) in exchange for a crisp set of Canon FD Primes that I've added cine-gears to which Im hoping to adapt to the Pocket 4k using the Metabones Speedbooster Ultra which I believe will bring down the x2 Crop of the sensor to around x1.42 in hopes of getting a super 35mm focal length from the FDs whilst keeping the DOF of the Super 16mm M4/3 Sensor. I'll be trading out my A7S II Kit for the upcoming pocket 4k. I'm pretty familiar with BMD cameras and love the organic cinematic look they bring. I've owned the original BMCC, Pocket and the UMP and to my liking the image from the original pocket was just outstanding. Just looking for any thoughts or opinions/information on Using the upcoming Pocket 4k With Canon FDs and a metabones fd - mft speedbooster ultra.
