ZCam prices are still well below any of the Kinefinity prices. MFT 4K - Kine: $3500 / ZCam: $2000 S35 6K - Kine: $5000 / ZCam: $3000 FF 6K - Kine $8000 / ZCam: $5000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah still a 3k difference there, but guess they can still do a pricedrop to make it even more attractive. (especially when you got these pretty impressive 2020 dslr's/mirrorless camera's coming out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaconda_ Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Zcam also have ProRes. EDIT: Zcam will also have ProRes - Once they get the license from Apple. zerocool22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I own a Z-Cam F6 and have since november. It has had ProRes from the beginning. zerocool22, Juank, kye and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 The Mavo models all got BIG price drops, a pity that even though Terra 4K is the oldest (and has never got a price drop before) it got the smallest price drop of them all. As it is, the Terra is over 3x more expensive than a BMPCC4K. Is it better? Yes. Is it 3x better?? Hmmm.... If Terra 4K had at least the same sized price drop as either of the Mavos, then a Terra would then be still more than double the price of a BMPCC4K but at least slightly cheaper than a BMPCC6K. (although, that's just for the bare camera, overall the Terra 4K would still come out as more expensive) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majoraxis Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Seems like Kinefinity would like to encourage purchasing of their products before NAB, which is the exact opposite of what people should be doing, unless their is an immediate business case to justify their purchase. That said, at the right price it makes sense to purchase just about anytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you might be waiting for a product, that may or may not exist, and if it does exist, could perhaps is half a year away?? At what point do you say enough is enough, and pull the trigger and buy? If a Kinefinity is what you want, and it seems like a good deal to you, then buy! If not, then don't. As simple as that. zerocool22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
