10 bit ProRes & 12 bit RAW internal recording Actually, the Ursa Mini Pro and Pocket 4K share the same color science which makes it the perfect B-cam to the UMP. To name just a few: the low megapixel count (8MP) leads to much better low-light performance, heat sinks are in place for internal recording up to 12 bit raw, the user-interface and button layout are tuned for video work, and the four-thirds mount makes the camera adaptable to all sorts of cinema lenses, speed boosters and ND-throttles.Īnd Blackmagic isn’t really protecting their higher end line-up either: slap on a speedbooster and the BMPCC4K gets you 90% of the URSA Mini Pro, with much better low-light performance, a better screen and easier lens-adaptability and portability to boot. Unlike other camera brands, Blackmagic doesn’t have to cater for photographers, and this has some massive advantages for filmmakers. Pocket Box The (very) good stuff Dedicated film camera In that sense, the introduction of the Pocket 4K is just as significant for filmmakers as the Canon 5D was 10 years earlier. The BMPCC4K puts the image-quality, tools and flexibility previously reserved for cameras costing 10 times as much into the hands of many talented frugal filmmakers.
The BMPCC4K is a quirky contraption at times, but once you've seen the images it produces, you forget about all of that. It feels like a toy, but records RAW video. It has a giant screen but small batteries to power it. Like most Blackmagic cameras, the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K (BMPCC4K) is a little weird: it looks like a DLSR but doesn't do photos.
