I guess it would look more expensive to the unknowing punters…
If you quoted hundreds or thosands of pounds for a shoot and turned up with this then they might feel their money was well spent.

i think this is just a bit of fun and won’t catch on but it’s a clever idea. BBC do allow 5d, just not for their HD channel.

So this rig has all the attachments but it’s still outputting the same aliased and moire prone images of the Canon scaling method. So while it looks good and pro like, it’s still a picture that the BBC and others just won’t allow on their broadcasts.

Now Scarlet will have a 2/3 sensor like the one on the demos in the low end, the pictures say nothing special but will complement well with 5D or 7D footage when you need deeper focus.

When they figure out the scaling, these cameras will be just what the industry dreamed for!

Ah,
I saw this piece of gear when I was trolling the interweb. At first I thought it was a bit over the top to call it the HYPER 35mm! But then I found out that one of the team members is a friend of mine….
Sony and Canon love child eh?
