For BMPCC shooters, getting shallow DOF may be difficult because of the need to use shorter focal lengths to get the same FOV as fullframe cameras.
With a crop factor of 2.88X magnification, a videographer is forced to use 17.5mm to get a 50mm FOV on the BMPCC. This correspondingly increases the depth of focus resulting less of a bokeh effect.
Metabones has alleviated this problem with their new speedbooster for BMPCC. With the new Nikon G mount adapter speedbooster for BMPCC, the crop factor has been dramatically reduced from 2.88x to a better than MFT 1.75x!
More amazingly , the fstop is boosted by one and two-thirds stop with a maximum resultant aperture of f0.74!
For BMPCC shooters, this piece of gear is an absolute essential that should be hard soldered on to the camera body:

For filmmakers looking for a film look camera , the BMPCC becomes even more attractive, especially with the new canon battery adapter from switronix
