From experiencing a traditional Kava Ceremony in the Navala Village to going upstreams the rivers of Pacific Harbour, we visited and recorded the main island of Fiji. We encountered Gospel Choirs, Salt makers, Rugby players, markets vendors and so many warm humans. Fiji is definitely a place filled with beautiful natural treasures and warm-hearted people.

For the BMPCC4K I shot Braw 8:1 codec

For the Sigma fp, I used it on the Ronin S as it is super light, but also handheld in locations where we had to be low profile and super tiny setup.

Sigma fp settings : 4K BRAW paired with the Blackmagic video assist to shoot Braw 8:1, with Samsung T5 SSD 1TB connected on the screen. Color profile was Off, it matches perfectly with the BMPCC. I used the 35mm Art f/1.4 on the fp.
