My take has always been that Panasonic should have prioritized a smooth m43 to full frame transition for customers. Having a blended ecosystem would help both thrive. As it is now, customers have to choose FF or m43, often with FF perceived as having most of the benefits. I think the first round of FF cameras should have had a m43 crop mode with faster readouts and frame rates. And, the mount Panasonic developed should have somehow been compatible with m43 lenses via an adapter. This might have meant messing with the flange distance which maybe reduced compatibility with other lens mounts, but ensured more people within the Panasonic system would have less switching costs.

It boggles the mind

I just wish it had a hot shoe for flash (and I guess a mechanical shutter if that's required for it). That would make it perfect candid camera for parties and family get-togethers for me.

+1 for CineMatch. I use it on every multicam shoot.

No mention of external raw, but hints that maybe it's PDAF. Interesting tradeoff versus the BS1H.

I use MediaInfo. It will do exactly what you need. It's been super useful for me identifying random video clips from other videographers at my day job.

I'm game to compare it to the Phantom luts if anyone is interested. Those have been marketed as "Alexa-like"

Dead to rights with me, too.

The BMPCC was already soooo cheap for its time that the fire sale made it an absolute no-brainer 🙂

I bought one. I couldn’t resist at this price, which I’m sure was Blackmagics hope for many people. I’ve been completely out of the BM ecosystem for a few years but the Pyxis got me starting to reconsider. Now this has pushed me into the deep end 😂

I love the way Blaine constructs his videos. Zero fluff. Just tips and tricks the whole time.

My big light is the Smallrig 450D. I love it. It's well-built and super bright when I need it. That said, most of the time the brightest lights I need are 300w.

Anddddd there's the box camera!

This might be the single largest release lineup Blackmagic has ever done. There's like a dozen new pieces of hardware plus DR and firmware updates. Craziness.

It's interesting to see the minuscule amount of hype around this Blackmagic livestream compared to the BMPCC4K in 2018. It's a ghost town here today.
