If you want to improve the image by applying a LUT, you can do that with the free OBS software. You then have to decide whether you can live with using the camera's "video" dynamic range, which will give you a good-enough but not stellar image without any further tinkering required by you. If you have a cage with a cable clamp, use it. You will need a micro-HDMI to regular HDMI cable, and as always be very careful when plugging into the micro HDMI jack on the BMPCC as it's fragile. Video: I think the cheapest solution that will give you good-looking video would be to get an Elgato Camlink 4K (I've tested this and it works well with the OG BMPCC), which turns the BMPCC into a webcam. I will let you know how it goes when I find some time off. RobMAT wrote:Work has not allowed me to read the thread thoroughly or try your suggestions. But getting audio from OBS to Twitch might be tricky (it's tricky for Zoom, for example). You could do line-in to the camera from an external mixer and capture both video and sound via HDMI, or you can capture sound separately and use OBS to apply audio effects, change levels, and synchronize video and audio. You do have to figure out sound, too: don't use the original BMPCC's built-in mics as they're awful. Image quality is excellent, even using the "video" dynamic range if you're indoors under controlled lighting. I currently use the original BMPCC going out to the Elgato CamLink 4K and it works fine. If you use OBS, you can apply a LUT there I've tried it with the original Pocket and it works, although it's one more thing for your computer to do and I'm not sure if it would affect latency (including any impact on sync between video and audio). You can get around it by changing the camera's dynamic range from "film" to "video," as long as you can live with that compromise (which for live-streaming might be okay). The original Video Assist, which I have, doesn't do this: you can apply a LUT in the Video Assist for monitoring but only the log footage is transmitted through the HDMI out. Jamie, can you confirm that the video out from the 12G Video Assist over USB has the LUT embedded? I looked at the manual a few months ago and couldn't tell I posed a question in the forum but never got an answer. Benefit to running the HDMI into the Video Assist is ability to apply a custom LUT - very useful with the original BMPCC which needs a custom transform to look good.
