when Blackmagic first announced their pocket Cinema Camera I didn't think the
camera could get any smaller to my surprise Blackmagic has done it again
with their micro Cinema Camera lineus techtips coverage of NAB 2015 is brought
to you by Sennheiser Kingston SD cards
and linda.com the sensor on the micro cinema camera is a super 16 mm sensor
with a claimed rating of 13 stops of dynamic range the sensor also has both a
global and rolling shutter similarly to the newly announced ersa mini for the
lens mount black magic has continued using the active micro 43s lens mount
just like on the pocket Cinema Camera moving on to physical specs the camera
controls are now on the front of the camera initially this decision might
seem odd but if you look past it it makes a lot of sense black magic has
designed this camera to be used on small to medium siiz drones with the controls
on the front you'll be able to easily access all you need on the camera without having to reach around awkwardly
not knowing if you're pushing the correct button moving on to io on the
camera on the right side it has a full-sized HDMI black Magic's new
expansion Port which can be used to make specialized cables that can control the
settings of the camera one example they had was riging it to work with an RC
remote for wireless control of all of the settings on the left side of the
camera we find an SD card slot and microphone input for when you want to
attach an external mic the micro camera is capable of raw recording as well as
many flavors of Apple prores for power block Magic has gone with the widely
used Canon lp6 battery which many shooters will already have plenty up
from using Canon dslrs Blackmagic also announced a second variation on the
micro camera which has an ever so slightly larger sensor that is 4K
capable this version of the camera is geared more towards broadcast production
trading its internal SD card recording slot for a 6G SDI in and out while not a
direct competitor to say an action camera this camera is a good alternative
if you need a highquality image that records to a more robust codec than
others in the market I can see this camera being used as a crash cam or a
highquality way to get shots that you wouldn't be able to fit a traditional
camera in at a price point of $995 for this Standard Version and $12.95 for the
4K version Blackmagic has continued their trend of bringing affordable
quality to the masses thank you guys for watching and please let me know in the
