The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K is a handheld digital film camera with full 4/3 HDR sensor, dual native ISO with a maximum ISO of up to 25,600 for incredible low light performance as well as 13 stops of dynamic range. It also eliminates expensive external recorders as it features a unique new USB-C Expansion Port, which allows recording using the internal SD/UHS-II and CFast recorders or directly to the same external disks used for editing and colour correction. That means you can turn projects around much more quickly because you don’t have to transfer files.
The camera features a large 5-inch touchscreen monitor, four built-in microphones, Bluetooth wireless camera control, and HDMI on-set monitoring output. Designed using a space-age carbon-fibre polycarbonate composite, the body is extremely strong and light. This design helps protect it from accidental knocks and drops which can often result in damage. Images can be recorded onto standard SD cards, faster UHS-II cards, or CFast 2.0 cards in either ProRes or RAW formats.
The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K can record 4K images at up to 60fps and windowed HD at up to 120fps. The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K uses the same MFT (Micro Four Thirds) lens mount as the original Pocket Cinema Camera so you can use lenses you already own.
