Hosted by Marco Solorio of OneRiver Media, this video compares the Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera and the Canon 5D Mark III in several tests. This includes dynamic range, sharpness, pushing levels, banding, artifacts, rolling shutter, chromakeying, wide/telephoto lengths, DOF (depth of field), low light, macro blocking, contrast, and more.
Going a step closer with the Cinema Camera, Marco Solorio of OneRiver Media focuses on how 12-bit RAW compares in relation to 8-bit alternatives, including many camera solutions costing much more. The difference between “perceived dynamic range†and “available dynamic range†is explored in detail. Also covered is day-for-night, detail versus sharpness, and much more.
Some questions have arisen as to why a LOG curve wasn't used (or if it would help) for the 8-bit source (amongst others),OneRiverMedia created a blog post on the topic to answer any questions that might be regarding.
