Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera (BMPCC) – Raw review from Artbox on Vimeo.

This year Blackmagic Design announced the Pocket Cinema Camera. The smallest camera of its kind boasting a not so small tech spec. It features an elegant magnesium alloy chassis, 13 stops of dynamic range, Super 16 sensor size, Full HD high quality Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) and lossless compressed CinemaDNG RAW recording, as well as interchangeable optics with an active Micro Four Thirds lens mount, all packed into an incredibly tiny size all for just £649! As with all new products that hit the market there are always pros and cons with their features, but the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera’s pros out-weigh its cons by a long shot. Here’s a test video from Artbox.
