Blackmagic Production Cinema Camera 4K Vs A7Sii Video

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 bought this machine to edit 4k video from my BlackMagic cinema camera. I had read some mixed reviews on some of the cinematography forums, .. But from my experience the Mac Pro is awesome. I'm color grading 4k prores files in Davinci Resolve and with the duel d700 GPU it works through it no problem.

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

.. I just get it from B&H and shoot some test with my Blackmagic Production Camera 4K, and I like the result !!!

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

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.

I use this for the 4k cinema and the Video Assist 4k.

I have been shooting with a Blackmagic Cinema Camera and Production Camera for years, but have only used Canon L Glass along with my default ef-s 17-55 2.8. Moving to cine-style primes not only helps with my follow focus setup, but I'm getting much sharer images. The 14mm doesn't show a ton of distortion on my 4K camera, and none on my 2.5k. These are really super speeds since most are at T 1.5. I can't recommend these enough.
