We should not expect him or her to be rational! This is how the typical struggling filmmaker thinks. Due to severe gear acquisition syndrome we will adjust our expectations accordingly, and compromise. The 18-35mm only gives us a 28mm wide angle view on the 6K and 27mm on the 4K. Note: We are using ULTRA over XL because ULTRA is designed for APS-C lenses. I pick the latter because we get our focal length range and it is a lot cheaper. Extra for the BMPCC 4K: Metabones T Speed Booster ULTRA 0.71x Adapter ( Amazon, B&H) or the Aputure DEC LensRegain ( Amazon, B&H).
Same lens for both: Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 Art ( Amazon, B&H).Let’s start with the simple stuff, like prices (taken from B&H as of this writing): Camera If there is more than one option for best camera, we will base our choice on low light ability and future value.
We need the cheapest system that will help us complete this project without compromising on any of the objectives above. We will not be using an external monitor. And it gives us the option to use film LUTs for a quick finish. We will be shooting Blackmagic RAW because this is easy on our PC. Since this is common to both cameras, we will not account for this. We are recording audio via one XLR microphone. One zoom lens would be simpler than two primes, but low light is a concern so we have to account for that. We need two focal lengths, a 25mm and 50mm in the full frame equivalent. We can’t afford a focus puller or wireless system. We want to use a gimbal but both the BMPCC 4K and 6K doesn’t have autofocus so we decide it’s not worth the hassle. We’ll only be using a tripod and a slider. Our final delivery platform is YouTube, though the image quality must look good on a cinema screen for film festivals. No permissions, so we need to keep our system to a minimum. We are shooting for 3 days, 12-hours each. That means we’ll have 105 minutes of final footage. We are making a 15-minute short film with shooting at a ratio of 7:1. Let’s make certain assumptions to provide a level playing field: Exclusive Bonus: Download 4 cinematic LUTs for the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K and 4K, for free.
