One thing that need to be stated for these reflections on the BMPCC4K is that thay've also implemented gyro image stabilization years after it's release. You can use them whenever you edit them using Davinci Resolve. I think people forgot about this addition, or straight up didn't know it, and that includes me.

Still my main A camera. An incredible image, plenty of features, and very ergonomic for filmmaking. It seems like it’s not, but it just has a learning curve on how to rig up. For cinema, this is perfect, working with teams usually requires a built out rig - this is pretty amazing for that, especially with all the outlets. Last but not least, BRAW! Shooting raw to an SD card is amazing, but you can also go bigger with a hard drive. It’s not perfect, but it’s the BEST camera on the market to teach you how to be a Director of Photography.

I hope they come out with a box shaped s35 one day! Ill buy that in a heartbeat

[MitchSteedmanMedia]

The only thing that is very deceiving about this beautiful camera is that many smaller & less expensive stabilization devices don’t fit the football shape which unfortunately means you are stuck with more expensive stabilization devices such as rs3 pro & ronin 2. But, even given that, I will always recommend this as a must for starting cinematographers!

I think, it is still the best camera in 2023, great video, keep it up!

What a great re-review of a camera classic, thanks for that! BUTTTT man, those (hot) sparks flying onto the unprotected front glass element of the Sigma 18-35 made me scream unwillingly! I hope there are no deep bumps melted into the glass now... 😵🙃

Absolutely love this camera. Shot a feature on it last year, and it performed like a champ.

[omenka]

This camera is great! This summer we will shoot a feature with it and Arriflex Distagon lenses as an b cam.

I own a 4K and recently bought a FX30. I can't say I regret the decision because, you know, autofocus and size, but I'm finding I enjoy more shooting on the BM with a loupe. The menu system, screen and lack of flexibility of the footage of the Sony are hard to get used to after being spoiled by Blackmagic.

BM makes really good cameras and BRAW is pleasure to work with, but I'd love to see FF from BM

[MikeyTachuk]

The camera that started it all for me and my career! Endlessly thankful for the BMPCC4K 🙏

[rowanstrang]

It’s a real shame that blackmagic design never gave the m4/3 pocket cinema camera the ‘pro’ treatment that they did for the EF version. (Electronic ND, eye piece, articulating 1000nts screen)

[RobinParmar]

Despite the flaws there's still nothing to compete with the BMPCC4K. I'd love to see an updated version with better battery life, ND filters, and ability to mount the accessory EVF. In other words, take the best features of the 6K but keep the MFT mount and smaller form factor.

recently bought a second one.
Nothing beats this little monster.
Look at how popular their original 1080p bmpcc still is after 10 years.
They dont go out of fashion.

I sold if for a FX6, but looking back at earlier productions I still sometimes prefer the image of the BMPCC4K

I am so glad you made an update to this! I own this camera and it’s hands down one of the best shooters for beginners and professionals

[Iso_]

This camera was used in many documentaries in my country.

[AndrewPRoberts]

I've been loving mine, it's the dream camera for the kind of stuff that I do. Plus, coming from Panasonic, I was able to keep all of my lenses

[ayeeidkmusic]

I remember researching cameras because I was getting tired of my Sony. My decision was between this and the gh5. I ended up going with the gh5 for the ibis and it’s features. I am thinking about picking this up since they’re cheap and would make a great addition to my current setup.
