Blackmagic Design 4K Cinema Camera Review

The Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K is an amazing video camera for the price. The BMPCC 4K has a lot of high-end features for a compact body will sacrificing other components and features. I can highly recommend it and I promise you won't regret getting one of these for your production.

I use this to work with my Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema 4K camera and Sony F series Battery Holder from Smallrig, it works well!

B&H made it easy for me to highly recommend the Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K/Pro I attached a Vintage Canon 50mm f/1.4mm lens with a speedbooster and it took some amazing shots. I wrapped my camera in a Tilta Rig with the SmallRig Battery Mount and SmallRig Matte Box Mini. I can say that the BlackMagic did it's thing with this one. I thought that in this juncture in my professional career I need to did my toe in and put the forever low-light grainy Panasonic AG-150A down. So I purchased me a st of snap cards and I'm not looking back. Next Up a case and possibly a few more glass.

Fast and reliable for my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k.

Works exactly as expected with no issues (with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K)

Versatile power unit for BlackMagic Design pocket cinema 4K and 6K cameras. You can screw it into a cage or right onto the 1/4-20 thread on top of the camera. Has a variety of power outputs, plus the dummy LP-E6 battery included. The charger isn't included, but B&H ships one free. Overall, a handy unit for lots of power time.

This case is perfection and protects your BlackMagic Cinema or Production 4K Camera extremely well. I wouldn't throw it off a cliff for fun...but seriously, its very well built. Even had it fall into the ocean. Not one drop made its way into the case. There is enough room inside for the camera, hood about 2-4 SSD drives in those awesome BlackMagic Blue Cases and one mid-size lens (think Rokinon 85mm or other similar or smaller sized lens). Don't buy this case thinking it will house all your lenses and accessories...because it won't. You buy this case because it truly is probably the best protection for the BlackMagic Cinema or 4K Camera.

If you want a really really solid cinema style camera you really can't beat this. The picture this camera produces is absolutely beautiful. On top of that the menu is easy to navigate and the camera itself is really reliable both physically and with its performance. There are a ton of super convenient features you get with this camera and of course it's always nice that Blackmagic ships these with a license for the full version of Davinci Resolve. Don't be mistaken, this is not really a good hybrid shooter. It's mainly for video and with that said there is no IBIS and the battery life is not great but that's to be expected from a cinema camera. But really, if you know this is the sort of camera you're wanting to get then you really really can't go wrong. I absolutely love Blackmagic as a company and their products are always so fairly priced so for me it's a no brainer. For those wondering if they want a 4k or the 6k Pro or even an Ursa...I bought the original 4k and even though I will always love it, I did buy a metabones speed booster and at that point I should've just gotten the 6k...but the 6k didn't exist at that time. If you aren't sure if you need an ursa or not then you probably don't need an ursa and for the price the 6k G2 will still produce one of the most beautiful pictures you'll see at a fraction of the size and cost.

Great card for the price. Performs well with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k.

Used with Blackmagic pocket cinema camera 4K this lens works very well. the fisheye effect is nice and fills the frame (shooting 4K 4096x2160). Image is sharp to the edges, and focus is very forgiving. If you have the lens hood installed you will see it on the edges of the frame, but it is easily removed while shooting.
