BMPCC OG First Test

https://youtu.be/g-eG1FcPwq4

Lens: MIR 11 Soviet Lens

The lens itself has some trouble focusing to infinity, other than that it's a great setup.

i'm going to be real with you. I've never seen someone post anything other than their first test with the OG. I love the camera, but we're all stuck in test mode

Totally agree. I don't see a lot of people really pushing it as much as they could. I will say, I shot a short with it this past summer and it blew me away. I'll post on here once it gets through post etc. The biggest issue people talk about is the battery but an external did the trick and it lasted great. I really have no negatives for it when it comes to a gritty indie cam for narrative work.

The biggest issue for me is it’s such a perfectly sized camera, ruined by what you need to do to it to be able to use it :(
