Probably because no one here has any interesting in the 1" 4K sensor from their Studio cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted February 12, 2018 Author Share Posted February 12, 2018 Well that is about as big as it can be and use B4 lenses. They can cover a m4/3 sensor if they have a doubler on them engaged. I can see TV stations buying them they are cheaper than a Big ass ENG camera, and can use the B4 lens instead of the junk ones on the $2500.00 ENG camcorders Sony, Panny, JVC try to push. They are OK for a take your time reporter on their own to interview someone say at their house but not for big time ENG work that is fast paced. They might make a damn good Documentary camera also. But I doubt the low light will be very god. so that may suck on it for that need? You get good with a B4 lens and you can focus in a heartbeat with them. But None of them that I know of are AF. And man it does Lossless 12-bit CinemaDNG Raw recording is possible for projects that require the best quality, while broadcast footage can be shot in 10-bit DNxHD 220X, DNxHD 145 or ProRes formats with metadata. That is some nice video specs. This thing might end up being a lot better than people give it credit for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronFilm Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Jagnje, well you probably need to keep on waiting.... like I said, it is the 1" sensor from their studio cameras. Not the same 1" sensor as in the BMPCC with its high DR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagnje Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 well, compared to other ENG cameras the BMD studio senson is a high DR would make my life way easyer at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
