nigelbb Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Here in the UK only ProAV of all the BlackMagic dealers have updated the prices on their website but at £354 including VAT it is very tempting just to play with shooting RAW. http://www.proav.co.uk/blackmagic-design-pocket-cinema-camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacek Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Call me crazy, but I'll probably buy it instead of Sony a7S :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damphousse Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Lol. So glad I didn't buy this camera. A lot of people got burned. If you aren't making money with your gear it's better just to wait. Some people bidding on ebay haven't heard the news... Unfortunate. I was actually looking at the BMCC a few weeks ago because the prices on the used BMPCC were just way too high. Looks like my instincts were right. The reason I focused more on the BMCC is it has less of a crop and it has an ef mount that allows IS. Also it uses SSDs vs SD cards. I also found the used pricing to be interesting. I might actually be able to get a BMCC with full Resolve for $1500ish. That's a $500 discount (25%). You can't get a BMPCC for 25% off. Once you take into account the price of Resolve the price difference between a BMPCC and a BMCC on the used market is not that much. So now Blackmagic has gone and made it interesting.

Damphousse Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 weird.... Well pull the trigger and see what happens. They may have changed it since you put it in your cart. Whatever you do don't empty your cart or wait too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I'm very, very tempted by this. I've been craving RAW so badly recently. Last night I was shooting 7fps RAW bursts on my G6 just for a taste! Pointless. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
