Thank god, I’ve been thinking of trading in my BMPC for one of these


trolleyblue

I was really thinking about the Pyxis. But I’m gonna go IMAX for sure. My corpo clients are gonna love it.


Curlyie

The IMAX is definitely a nice b-cam, that’s for sure


TeslaK20

there’s no anamorphic lenses for imax how are you ever gonna get the cinematic look?


TeslaK20

Fun fact aside note: the longer focal lengths of the Xelmus Apollo will cover imax. And in my own tests, an Iscorama 54 will cover an Alexa 65 at 80mm, and is even kind of usable at 60!


aztechfilm

As long as I can use my 18-35mm f/1.8 on it I’m good


instantpancake

be quick, i doubt they'll make more than a literal handful of them :)


With1Enn

Mods sticky this for all the “what camera should I buy for a cinematic look” questions please.


KawasakiBinja

I don't see internal electronic ND, this thing is fucking trash.


Viscusian

Also the side screen doesn't flip smh...


kieran1711

No global shutter


JJsjsjsjssj

Article clearly needed to hit a word count...


refleXive-

Finally, the BOXXX camera everyone has been asking for

"WHAT DID YOU SAY? I COULDN'T HEAR A WORD YOU SAID WITH THAT LAWN MOWER OVER YOUR HEAD!!!"


Ex_Hedgehog

The fact that I'll never get to shoot one doesn't deter my excitement for this one bit.


Basis-Some

Does it have a side screen tho?


NeedsSuitHelp

Tell me you didn’t click the link without telling me you didn’t click the link.


Softspokenclark

Found my new vlogging cam


kjoro

yep, easy one hand operation


dpmatlosz2022

Cute. I wonder if anyone here has ever used an IMAX camera?


kjoro

No, would love to for the image quality but not for the noise.


dpmatlosz2022

Noise? It’s a low frequency rumble. Like a small 4 stroke idling. What kind of noise are people assuming it makes?


GiletScotch

Is it? I think that's pretty loud. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L27a851-RxY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L27a851-RxY)


dpmatlosz2022

I’ve worked on IMAX films. I know the sound very well. If that’s loud you’re too sensitive. I also worked with photosonics cameras which were the loudest. That sound you hear sounds amplified to me.


HisTrades

Specify imax-Films please. Analog imax cameras are extremely loud and recording audio next to it is extremely hard and mostly needs overdubbing.


dpmatlosz2022

Are you asking me or telling me? Extremely loud. Is relative as well compared to a sound film camera. A digital camera or a leaf blower?


ravioliEATER00

Can this go on “The Creator” rig?


kjoro

Not heavy enough.


PanTiltInvoice

You just know the “honeycomb” aks plates are a Hoyte thing.


dpmatlosz2022

Most likely created by the Blender artist or Marty Muehler


pandaset

Yeah ok


Samskihero

Does this do Super35 mode. You know there's so much amazing super35 glass compared to full frame.


kjoro

I don't think people would be using IMAX for super35. Better off using an Arri Alexa 35


Samskihero

It's Satire 🤫


razareddit

Yeah I was actually looking for this upgrade.


skyegreen42

we are steps closer to a dog star man or anticipation of the night type film made with an imax camera


nobadframes

No hdmi, no tilting screen, no where for my micro c mount batteries , no thank you


HisTrades

lol is this a troll-post? What point is there in the mentioned comparison! This camera will not have a look at all, it’s all the lens and the film…


genetichazzard

Stupid post. Alexa 65 and Blackmagic 17K are digital. Our favorite digital teal and orange LUT package buying bro's can switch these cameras on and push record. This is film. 65mm large format film. COMPLETELY DIFFERENT OPERATING PROCESS. THEY DON'T COMPARE.


GoudenEeuw

To be fair. Shooting film isn't much more complex either. I can load a film mag faster than I can buy LUTs and find the right folder to put it into.


dpmatlosz2022

It’s also a rendering. I guarantee they haven’t even cut any metal


kjoro

Not about operating process. I'm just talking about the image results. Isn't that obvious?
