Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K

It is a camera for those that like manual control of focus and best used with a gimbal, good for creators that take a slow approach, has no IBIS but you can stabilise in post although at the cost of a crop so you will have to allow for this when framing your shots. The files it produces do have gyro data to help with post stabilization if required when hand held without any gimbal.

Fantastic image quality. Open gate is great for shoots where social content needs to be captured simultaneously. Shame this model doesn't have pro-res, as braw files are too large for interviews.

Ok i have only had this a week & chose this for the money outlay & it's picture quality & the fact that I can control this via ATEM (Blackmagic video switcher). This camera is body only & I already had Canon lenses to attach to it. Other pros are you can connect a fast SSD & it comes with the paid for version of Davinci Resolve - I may use this but for now FCPX. Cons - it's big! - to use the 6k & 5k its BRAW (a Blackmagic special) so I wont need that as Im generally 4k anyway & social media site like FB & Lindin are only 720p anyway or 1080p if you pay but YT will take 4k. Also Canon are not doing the EF lenses anymore Hope find this useful

First Black magic Camera and my god the video quality is stunning!!

Bought to complement a BMPCC4k. I love the BMD menu system - it makes all other camera systems I have used look like a nightmare. There is a slightly weird set of resolutions split between BRAW and ProRes, I would have preferred all resolutions to have been available in BRAW as that is my preferred codec. Tiptoeing through them and the assortment of crops is a bit of a dance, but I'll get used to it. All the controls are right under my fingers, it is a joy to use. The colour that comes out of that camera is gorgeous.
