What I find strange is they announce the camera but no footage to show? Where's the sample footage?
Grant filmed and showed footage he'd just taken, all done LIVE during their announcement.

Because the current cameras shown are not the final weight. They'll be a few hundreds of grams even lighter?

Ok, now the pre-order link is live on CVP's front page.. apparently there are 300+ people looking at it and they sold more than 20 cameras already! :-P
Now it is "361 people have added it to their basket"! :-o1 minute ago, enny said:Guys any idea if my metabone ultra 0.71 will work with this new pocket since sensor is bigger
x0.71 isn't much, works with normal MFT cameras just fine

BMD is privately held. (and I reckon is a major factor in why they can push so hard to be innovative like this) -

Is it possible to record the audio from the 3.5mm and mini xlr seperatly? or at least to one to right and another to the left channel?
I'd assume so, I'd be gutted if you can't!
Also the 3.5mm is a stereo input, thus I hope all three channels can be recorded at once! That would be awesome. -

Very good option, but in my short experience with USB-C cables (only have a tablet with it - my older computers are still running fine), it disconnects much more easily than HDMI. A locking solution will be needed, I guess.
Or just limit it to only tripod shots.
It can't be worse than what RED ONE shooters had to deal with! Remember how awful RED-DRIVEs were.

It even has phantom power.
True, Canon EOS is burred six feet under by this point in time it is so dead. -

But this is damned near a FS5 for 995.00.
Arguably better.... the FS5 doesn't do 4K 10bit internal. -
He was meaning they could already film with it in the lab, but they can't take it outdoors into the open to film with because it is an unannounced camera!!!
Of course now everyone knows about it, they're quite free to take it out into public to have a play around with filming with the BMPCC4K rather than staying confined to the insides of a lab. -
Well in the interview I remembered watching he said "by us" or similar words to that effect.

I know it's what is in the camera that matters, but this looks hideous, and it shouldn't be
Looks fine to me! The camera isn't the one which is on camera, model level good looks are not needed!21 hours ago, DBounce said:With a s16 sensor and 4K what usable ISOs can we expect?
The BMPCC4K is not S16, it is an "oversized" MFT sensor. -

During an interview, Blackmagic said it’s a new sensor that hasn’t previously been used in any other camera.
They meant never used by any other camera from BMD.Not that it never been used by anyone ever before.

Been reading around comments elsewhere. And found it strange how some people are saying USB-C drives are "expensive". Yes, please tell me more about how a 128gig drive which costs less than forty bucks is "almost as expensive as a CFast card"!
https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-128GB-Type-C-SDDDC2-128G-G46/dp/B01EZ0X55C/
And heck, if you're just doing a basic shot on a tripod that is running for ages (say a locked off shot at an event) you could get a FOUR TERABYTE harddrive for less than US$170:https://www.amazon.com/G-Technology-G-DRIVE-USB-C-External-0G05666/dp/B06ZY3N7QC/
This is indeed a major feature by BMD!
I remember when I first purchased my original BMPCC I had to spend a small fortune on fast enough and big enough SD cards. Ditto SSD prices when the BMCC first launched, or CFast prices when the big URSA first launched.

I doubt it's the same sensor for the Pocket 4k as that looks like it's still Super-16 sized but there is a lot of speculation the Terra 4K shares a sensor with the GH5S
Isn't S16 in the new BMPCC4K, so "same" as Terra4K/GH5S/ZCamE2 -
Wellllll..... heh, I never thought the MixPres were quite as appealing for value for money as the F4/F8 anyway. So this doesn't change that, it just further extends Zoom value for money dominance in the low end.

A Zoom rep is here in this video talking about the Zoom F8n, a "sneak peak":
The recorder is still a few months away ("July"), and details are not yet concrete (price is looking to be twelve hundred dollars).
But some specs we can expect:
Updated GUI
Selectable line/mic input
New battery slot
Look ahead limiters
Better headphone Amp!
Improved voltage range for Hirose inputs
Anticipated July delivery with pricing around US$1200 -

However the main reason I liked the original Pocket was down to the charm, the mojo, the classic look - 99% of cameras with IBIS, great low light, HFR are still being beat by the original Pocket in this regard.
Also you have to remember that this camera is for cinematic application, and is designed to be used as such. Not really the type of camera to run and gun with in a cave lit only by glow flies!
Exactly.

I'd assume it would be.

The image is beautiful, but the horrible audio preamps and battery life, poor screen, and overall ergonomics trumped the amazing IQ for me.
Well the BMPCC was a "cinema camera", thus external power/audio/screen is essential if you want high quality. Just like if you used an Arri / RED / etc! I don't get why people didn't get this. Instead expecting something completely different.
However it appears BMD really took this criticism to heat, and have greatly improved the audio and internal battery life.However the audio in even the original BMPCC isn't that awful if just for casual usage, a lot of my vlog videos are audio straight into the BMPCC with no editing. https://www.youtube.com/c/SoundSpeeding

Stoked that the BMPCC4K is going to support timecode input on the 3.5mm just like the BMD Micro Cinema Camera also does. This would be the third MFT camera with TC input supported!
-
Well the Kinefinity Terra 4K / GH5S / BMPCC4K are suspected to share the same sensor. Then it is up to the camera manufacturer as to who gets the most out of it.

Just to add on to what @Inazuma mentioned, if rumors are to be believed, the older (and cheaper) a5100 is supposed to have even better 1080p than the a6000
This was true at launch for each.
As a5100 had XAVCS and a6000 didn't
But later the a6000 got a firmware update for XAVCS
Oh and btw just like many Sony mirorless the a5100 overheats easily.
Just get a cheap G7 (or Maybe G80 for the IBIS) while you wait for a BMPCC4K. Once you consider the license price of Resolve, it is the same price as the original BMPCC!

seems like Sony's current strategy is to be agressive on price points to undercut competition rather than really pushing forward innovation...
Well Sony has been pushing specs hard for a long while, maybe not a bad thing if they ease up and instead push down on prices and focus on ergonomics/colors.
