Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera

Product Information

Have you seen the Ikonoskop A-cam DII ? That is what you are looking for. With a global shutter too. cinema grade matte box with 4.56 filters look rediculusly big with it (although on plus side no one thinks of me as an amateur any more) This is why 16mm was so pivotal in the French New Wave movement, and in the birth of independent filmmaking more broadly. At the base is a slightly flimsy battery door which is removable so the potential for third party battery grips is a reality, while to the left you’ve got a dual card slot which feels a bit more sturdy. The camera takes SD and CFast cards, with the CFast cards required for the highest quality raw 4K video.

bmpcc 4k – night shots (that can’t be shot during the day and graded to night), slowmo (for the reasons I can’t comprehend) Currently, I have a feature film in development that I aim to shoot on Super 16mm motion picture film. This is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, but haven’t really been able to pull the trigger until now. The 77mm lens cap easily snaps on to protect your camera’s lens from scratches, dust, moisture, and fingerprints when the camera isnot inuse. The result is what you’d think, complete with 8 bit artifacting, banding etc, but it told the story.I’m just in the process of rigging up an OG BMPCC, after finishing a series of kids shorts on Reg / Double Super 8. Most advanced digital film camera features 6K sensor with EFlens mount, built in motorized NDfilters at 0, 2, 4 and 6stops, tilt adjustable 1500 nit LCD and alarger battery. Supports optionalEVF. We know, we know, when you’re shooting video, a true professional never uses continuous autofocus. But, we’re not true professional videographers, we’re video journalists and on some occasions, needs must. The film will require some run and gun insert shots that will be filmed guerrilla style on location. For many of these shots, it won’t be practical (or even possible) to shoot with my Arri SRII, so I’ll likely need to supplement the production with some digital footage. The 82mm lens cap easily snaps on to protect your camera’s lens from scratches, dust, moisture, and fingerprints when the camera isnot inuse.

Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K review | TechRadar

On multiple exports to DCP for short films it is a winning combination. I love the way sensor works with RAW and ProRes, on a cinema screen (remember those?) it delivers the emotional response I got off 35mm but for peanuts. Side by side it wouldn’t compare, but in its one right I have witnessed audiences stunned by the story and the sensor.

Iris Control: Automatically adjusts the lens iris settings so no pixel is clipped (active lenses only) We tried shooting RAW and the range of detail we could pull out was even better than ProRes, but the file sizes and additions to processing time meant for our needs, it wasn’t worth it despite the tangible benefits.

Are you a fan of the Super 16mm look? What would your ideal digital 16mm camera look like? Leave a comment below. Colors are predictably filmic and flat. This means anyone looking for an ‘out of the camera, onto YouTube workflow’, this probably isn’t it, even though you do have a number of recording formats that help out with this. Meanwhile, if you’re looking to flex your post processing muscles and make the footage look exactly like you want it to, you have maximum flexibility. BatteryIt’s a great camera in 2020. You don’t need 4k (cinema theaters get max. 2k, most 1080p) – if someone asks for it – upscale it – no one will notice after tiny tweaks (it records everything – there is plenty of detail to play with – it’s not dslr/phone etc. with its sharpening like crazy mode always on).

Good message especially when I find myself on the verge of purchasing a 8k large format camera 🎥! You did forget to mention possibly the greatest yet strangest super 16 digital cinema camera the Ikonoskop A-Cam which I once had but sold for more supported options. Reply More advanced 6K model featuring alarger 6144x3456 Super35 wide dynamic range sensor andEFlens mount. Features tilt adjustable LCD and a larger battery. Supports adding an optionalviewfinder. But the lesson here is that newer isn’t always better. Sometimes the best camera for any given situation is the one we already have. Just because it’s “outdated” doesn’t mean it’s no longer a viable tool.So while Arri & RED may help cover your bases aesthetically by offering a 16mm crop, they won’t help you reduce your footprint (or your budget) in the same way. As a workaround, you can shoot in a Super 16mm (equivalent) crop mode on an Arri or RED camera, but that just solves the aesthetic issue. The other consideration is practicality.
