The Blackmagic design pocket cinema 4k camera has been one of my go to cameras for a number of years now.
It's a fantastic digital cinema camera, regardless of how cheap it sells for.
The key features of the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K are a 4/3 image sensor with 4096 x 2160 resolution and an MFT lens mount, allowing you to capture wide dynamic range, Hollywood quality, digital film images in the palm of your hand! It’s an extremely advanced and affordable high end digital film camera.
The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K features a native sensor resolution of 4096 x 2160, while the 6K models have a native resolution of 6144 x 3456. Whether you’re shooting in bright sunlight or in almost no light at all, the 13 stops of dynamic range with dual native ISO up to 25,600 provide stunning low noise images in all lighting conditions.
Multiple Resolutions and Frame Rates. The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera can shoot in all standard resolutions and frame rates from HD up to DCI 4K. You can shoot stills at 8.8 megapixels on the 4K model.
For higher frame rates on the 4K model you can shoot up to 60 fps 4K DCI at 4096 x 2160 and 60 fps in Ultra HD at 3840 x 2160. You can even shoot 120 fps in 1080HD.
Couple with the right accessories this a digital cinema still out performs many other cameras on the market.
So is it still worth buying?
Absolutely.

Hey dudes, I need to say this up front. I love my Blackmagic design pocket 4k. Yes its a quirky camera, but the images that a pocket 4k can produce are amazing. So much has changed since its release, the biggest being the introduction of BRAW. Blackmagic design RAW is one of the best, most widely adopted RAW formats on the market today. There is so much to like about this camera. Let me know what you like or dislike about the pocket 4k. Super interested to hear all of your thoughts....

@@carmit.shaham Do you mean buying the pocket 4k as a kit that comes with a lens? Normally new they are not sold with lenses. If buying used, I would bargaining to get a lens with it yes. Otherwise buying blackmagic design pocket cameras is pretty cheap for what you get. I would recommend a lens with stabilisation of you are not intending on using a tripod. However a great go to fast wide lens for the pocket 4k is the sigma 18-35mm. Its affordable and very sharp. It is not stabilised though. If you tell me more about what you are trying to achieve I can offer better advice.

As a proud owner of this camera, I would not recommend you to follow the advice of most RU-vidrs and go all out on rigging your camera. Just use it for what it is, learn, have fun, and only expand your gear when it makes sense! I say this from experience as my rig got so out of control, that it stopped me from taking my camera with me. Remember creativity comes from necessity and constraint.

Very well-put (especially the bit at the end!). I really dig Blackmagic's ethos as a company more than anyone else's, too. The way that Grant Petty (the CEO) does the announcements and demos himself and understands every aspect of the tech, parts, supply chain, colorist needs, codec decompression/workflow is so, so different to most companies, and I really appreciate their frankness in what works great and what corners have to be cut to achieve that price. Hell, I called support because I couldn't get my Røde Wireless Go 2 to get me anything above -30dB no mater what, and the customer service rep told me that the Pocket models just have really weak preamps (he shoots on a Pocket 6K himself), that it's one of the cheaper parts in the camera, and that the lack of signal boost is inherent in the camera hardware and isn't my fault. Aspects like the above are _so refreshing_ when compared with the ultra-glossy, shareholder-approved, "we've never done anything wrong in our lives" attitudes that pervades the product/tech industry.

Another upside to this great camera, I live in BM’s hometown of Melbourne. I fried the motherboard of the camera (long story but my fault) I took it to their repair shop at 11 am and before the end of that day, it was ready to pick up. An expensive lesson but I can't fault how quick they repaired it.

Just bought my BMPCC 4K used for 850€ with Davinci Resolve after saving money for what felt like years.. So stoked to get it next week!! Upgrading from a G85 should be a HUGE step up! Grant Petty, you are our saviour!! PS: Yes, the used market prices SHOCKED me. But you are right, prices reflect just how high it is still valued! PPS: If you want to buy a BMPCC used in Germany, be aware that scammers are flooding Ebay and other online markets with fake listings; At least half of all listings i encountered were fake. Be aware!

I ordered at launch, and it's still my A cam. The value of Blackmagic's free firmware updates can't be overstated. The best part of this camera is it initially provides a low barrier of entry to shooting professional images and it can continue to grow with you by making incremental rig upgrades over time. I have a few recommendations to add to your great list. The cine-lock version of the Metabones speedbooster designed specifically for this camera is expensive, but will more than double the quality and functionality of this camera. A Portkeys monitor can wirelessly control the camera, which is invaluable if using a shoulder rig. I use and recommend four lenses. First, the Sigma 18-35 1.8. The other three are Canon FD lenses converted to EF by Simmod. The 55mm 1.2, 70-210mm F/4 and 24mm 2.8. Lastly, a wireless follow focus system. Happy shooting!

@EntrNmHre
@EntrNmHre Год назад
Hey there, with a small MFT lens it would be great for fat biking and skiing, but you would need to bag the camera as it is not weather sealed. As far as video quality goes, the pocket 4k smokes a GoPro, but you're not going to get steady shot in camera which is really what you want for action. If you use a manual focus lens, run the screen brightness on a low setting, the battery will get you about 55 minutes. As the Pocket uses Canon batteries, they are pretty good in the cold weather. However, to get more run time you can use a Sony NPF 960 with a small cheap adapter then you will get a around 3 hours. This does increase the size of the setup though and how that suits you shooting action sports is the real question. Im interested to know which way you go....?

For a mirrorless or DSLR handgrip I would totally agree with you, but for a cinema camera the ergonomics are not good.

A cameras with good ergonomics is the Arri Amira that out of the box requires no gak has a good weight to it and is balanced by design. The only difference is the price, image and build quality.

I can use my venerable HXR-NX300 for THAT, plus my iPhone 12 Pro Max with the Blackmagic spp for B-Roll. I need no expensive cameras for that. I used an old Cinealta F3 when helping someone with a shoot, and the only advantage was the Super 35 sensor.

Hi there, I would start with the used market in your local area and look for a Sigma’s 18 to 35 F1.8 in EF mount. And if you can afford one, a speedbooster of some kind. Then this lens can be kept if you ever move on from the MFT mount. Plus for doco work the speedbooster will come in handy for those lower light situations. Cheaper than this would be a couple of Loawa primes or zooms. Hope this helps you out.

Yes and No. I think it's times to an update version of the Bmpcc4k: ( bmpcc 4.6k G2) With: - Tilt Screem - Sony Baterry (As the Pocket 6k G2) - 2 mini XLR - New Sensor 1.8x M43 & New Science Color Generation. - 14+ Stop Dynamic Range. - Dual Native ISO 640 & 6400 - Update Version of Gyro Stabilization, and Better in Camera control. - Fuji XF Mount Optional, or E-Mount, as well M43 Mount.

what lens are you using for your camera? I have one 24-105 mm canon, 25m Panasonic lumix g, canon 50mm 1.8, lumix 12-35mm. One metabones .64x, I want to shoot interviews, people, and places. I find the use of the camera very poor outside. I can't even see the screen when it is bright. I am waiting for the monitor ordered and hope that it will solve the issue of brightness.

Great question Tim. Im using all EF glass with the Viltrox focal reducer. My lenses are a full range of Canon CNE primes, Canon EF primes and zooms. But I wouldnt use more than 3 lens for most productions. Travel lite work fast. Sounds like you have a great setup. If you are disappointed in your monitor, send it back and get an EVF, they are much better for focus and outdoors use.

@EntrNmHre
@EntrNmHre Год назад
If your using a speed booster, Canon 24-105 L kit lens. Buy it used, they are super affordable. And they have IS. The F4 will be come a F2.8, which is good for most stuff. If you are not using a speed booster, Loawa has amazing affordable lenses that are optically very good. These lenses have good resale value, so if you do decide to move up to FF lenses, you should get most of your money back.

@EntrNmHre
@EntrNmHre Год назад
@@BerserkFlow Ok then the main question I would ask is do you need AF? If you need AF for video, neither the GH5 or pocket 4k are the right camera for you. You’d be better off with a Canon, Sony and even some of Nikon Z line of cameras. But these options all vary drastically in price point. So budget is a real concern. If you are using Nikon’s you probably have Nikon glass, so looking a Z-line mirrorless for you could be a good way to save some money and have more lens options. Or you could look into adapting your lenses to the MTF mount.

@EntrNmHre
@EntrNmHre Год назад
@@BerserkFlow In thats case whats your budget? If you already have a dedicated stills camera, the Nikon, you should go for a dedicated video camera. The AF hierarchy for dedicated video cameras, not hybrids = 1) Sony/Canon, 2) DJI 3) Red 4)Panasonic/Arri/BMD/Zcam/Kinefinity and for Hybrids = 1) Sony/Canon 2)Panasonic/Nikon 3)Fujifilm 4)Olympus etc The best video cameras around 5k USD are Canon c70, Sony FX6 and both will work great straight out of the box. You also have the Red Komodo or a used Arri Alexa. But both require money spent on accessories to start shooting. But also dont be afraid to look into the Canon XF range of handy cams. These are excellent cameras, that dont generate a lot of data, have solid AF and work out of the box. They have attached zoom lenses and are pretty good in low light, plus they are SUB 5K new with good audio.

@EntrNmHre
@EntrNmHre Год назад
You batteries must be old or non genuine. Try using the newer Canon LPE6N batteries internally, you should get over an hour per battery. Even our old genuine batteries still get 50mins record time. If you are actually on a production and not running around with the camera in your hand, use V-lock or mini Vlock battery with your pocket 4k. Then run times for the camera will be several days at a time. For really demanding shoots we us a 230Wh batteries with both our 6k Pro ad 4k, which is no different from any other production camera on the market. In fact this camera with the same Vlock as an Alexa requires only 20% of the batteries for the same shoot day. But if you are just using the camera to document your life, cars, horse riding and home videos - you would probably be better off with a Canon or a Sony.

BMPCC4K as a cinema camera is better than Sony FX30, all Lumix cameras (GH6 S5IIX etc). And generally better than BMPCC4K in the budget segment is only BMPCC6K (Pro or new FF) or Sony FX3 + Atomos Ninja V (FX3 itself is not better) or Canon c70 or Red Comodo... but these are much more expensive solutions.
