Savannah Miller 76 Report post Posted July 15, 2018 Blackmagic always puts unusual lenses on their cameras. The first pocket cameras at NAB had outrageously huge zoom lenses on it. The veydras look very nice on the pocket camera. A nice size relative to the camera. 1 IronFilm reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evidently, there were at least three "Barbie Cam" models: a still camera; the video camera that I linked; and the one that you linked that is built into the doll.

I laughed when Kai called it a Cleavage Cam. Funny video no doubt. But shows you can make a movie work with some pretty cheap stuff. I think editing and naturally the story is what counts more than the camera by far. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Brawley 482 Report post Posted July 17, 2018 Funny how the cost of a camera warps the expectation of the price of accessories. JB 2 Emanuel and IronFilm reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Savannah Miller 76 Report post Posted July 17, 2018 It's always been that way. Blackmagic cameras have always been really cheap, but they use professional accessories so the price seems really high in comparison. Rigs have always been a significantly priced in comparison to the cameras, CFast 2.0 was expensive when it came out, and SDI montors are more expensive than HDMI although there are a lot more available now.

Savannah Miller 76 Report post Posted July 17, 2018 That cage is priced exactly 1/3 the price of the camera, so I'm not suprised if they did it on purpose. Makes me wonder what it really costs to design and manufacture something like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if the GH5s is significantly cheaper to make than the GH5 because it lacks IBIS and is based around an existing body and color science but since it's a PRO model they have to price it higher I think when blackmagic fist came out and DSLR was all the rage the costs of accessories were significantly different to DSLR's because DSLR's came with a kit lens and included batteries that lasted for hours. They were basically usable out of the box, and because the files were so compressed, you could use cheap SD cards too. This camera with a DSLR form factor, high quality screen and micro 4/3 mount is the closest they've come to a camera that's usable with minimal accessories.

Makes me wonder what it really costs to design and manufacture something like that. I was just going to say something along the same line. You can bet that thing doesn't cost 50 bucks to make. The big cost is the CnC work for all of those holes in it for 1/4-16 threads I would think. Really the camera cost 995 bucks. The Resolve is 300 bucks. They will be selling just the camera for 995 down the road you watch. If a studio wanted to by say 10 of them no way in hell are they going to stand still buying 10 copies of Resolve months after the release of it.. You won't be able to give away a Dongle on ebay there will be so many of them on there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
