I want one. This will be my next camera. I go to Raves and be in the mosh pits. This is small enough to sneak in to get footage. Small enough to be in the mosh pit. I just wanna break the rules.
If you really want the OG Pocket and you intend on rigging it out, get the Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera. It's got the same sensor as the OG pocket but it lacks the screen. The benefits of this camera is the it uses Canon LPE6 batteries which last longer and are still sold today, it has a full sized HDMI port so no need for weird cables or adapters, it can do 60fps so it opens up some slow-mo options, and also it has a compressed RAW codec, so you get the benefits of RAW at a smaller file size. Yes these cameras are amazing, but they are a hassle to use, but we use them because the picture quality is just that good. So do some research and find out which one works best for you!
I too have a BMMCC and a P4K. The Micro is not near as popular as the Pocket OG. Even though the 4K is a wonderful camera, I just enjoy the experience and image of the Micro, and use it more often.
@@raduionut78 honestly I’d love an OG just to have the screen on the back. I don’t use the 60 FPS so an OG would be perfect but I do enjoy the image out of the micro. They are all great cameras though no matter how you shake it. Just wonderful over all.
lack of 4K... I still believe that almost nobody (or really nobody) is able to differenciate a good and detailed 1080p, properly superscaled image with the a 4K image taken with the same conditions. if those are watched on the same 4K tv without allowing to zoom in to the picture until pixel level details (I mean watching the full-width pictures on full screen). Unfortunately I don't have the full equipment to make it done for testing, but maybe I will somehow figure it out because I myself would be also interested in the results
Good points : it's tiny, it smells nice, use SD card Drawbacks : no 4K, no 50p, horrible rolling shutter, super short battery life. Menu navigation is clumsy.
I totally agree with what you said especially having a film look immediately right out of the camera, the organic look is very beautiful. I love this camera and I hope I can make some real film using it, instead of just experimenting or travel.
I’ve never had or used the OG Pocket Camera, but I do have the Pocket 4K, which I absolutely love! I’ve been thinking about getting a second 4K camera eventually, but I also considered getting the OG Pocket to help out and to save some money. I’m a commercial and advertising producer, so I shoot lots of footage. A cinema camera isn’t what’s required for my job, but it helps give my clients the Hollywood look they want.
Most definitely! The Panasonic GH4 has great 1080p, a hacked GH2 can shoot HD at 150mbps (depending on which hack is used), and the Canon EOS M with the Magic Lantern firmware hack can shoot 14-bit RAW 1080p, as well as higher resolutions in cropped modes. 👍🏾👍🏾
I had the OG for a while and it was like fighting with a sibling the entire time. I loved the image but the work involved in minimizing the micro jitters drove me crazy.
Thank you! I’ll be releasing a video on how I grade soon.

I imagine this camera on a gimbal whith a dummy battery. If they make this camera in another body whith good batery life, only full hd... i just get one.
amazing images and presentation !!!! Subbed ! Now i have to explain to my bank account why we're buying a 2013 camera 😂 always been on the fence but this convinced me
Fantastic review! I love your reviewing style. The BMPCC OG camera is truly powerful. Also, could you kindly send that less important item next to the lamp to my address? 😉😁
👍🏾👍🏾Excellent Work, Nate, thanks for this!! I still have mine; I really love its image. Best Wishes to you. You're Awesome, man. Instant subscribe from me, hehe. Peace.
people with camera's need to understand the basic fundamentals of film that way you will stop spending your money on unnecessary gear that you don't need. great video and analytics bro✌
Well said! btw. I have own this camera since 2013 I bought it just for the reason you talked about. I haven't used it in years. I am hoping in the next year get the time to do some personal projects, and this will be the camera I use.
Love the video, been tossing up buying one as a "point & shoot". As someone who has a massive 6k pro rig, I kinda wanna chuck a helios 44M on the OG and have some fun. Loved your vibe too btw, super engaging & down to earth. Keep it up!!
I don’t see anybody use the battery that came with the camera, they’re all use the third party ones, plenty of options to choose as well, and they’re so cheap nowadays.
@@P00P2OO but even those third party NPs are terrible on depletion. Yeah you can rig it to an external but your pocket camera is no longer a fit inside your pocket lol
