I normally wouldn't say this if its a $1500+ camera.... but its a sub-$1500 camera that has $8K+ camera capabilities.... If you make the mistake of putting it under water, freezing it or drowning it with sand... buy a new one!!! Lux Shots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weight won't be finalized until closer to ship time. Material used is a hybrid plastic + carbon fiber material. Was mentioned in the presentation.

Anaconda_ Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 No mention of ProRes RAW, but safe bet that it'll be included by release right? Would seem strange to not have it if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coiii Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Oh my god, I'm dying for some sample footage. Can we expect something like the Ursa Mini Pro? BMD mentioned that they are using Color Science 4.0. Is there any camera using that at this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katrikura Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 The important thing about this release is that it will force other manufacturers to improve their specifications at a reasonable price. NikolaOvcharski 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BMPCC4K is too wide for the Ronin M, so my 5D isn't going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2 or 3 layers you can get what it may take 7 or 8 for BMFilm. andrgl and Moshimo Garcia 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, as exciting as this camera is, the form factor is no good for gimbals. Too wide, single mounting points, no shutter release, possibly heavier than the original pocket. Hopefully an updated micro is around the corner. Also not to be a downer, but Grant even said the announcement was happening too early for his liking. September 2018 release is a pipedream, zero point in preordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubrickian Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 This is clearly the camera that will let me self-actualize as a viable artist. I couldn't do it up until now, but with these specs, the sky's the limit. I just told my agent to hold all meetings until September. kaylee, andrgl, heart0less and 2 others 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was really helpful with Panny lenses that don’t have the hard stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
