I've felt the Pocket 4K/6K/Pro cameras are the spiritual successors to the BMCC/4K and not really the OG Pocket. It feels really likely BM would mark the anniversary with another disruptive camera. Even if they limited the sensor to the 8K mode (which doesn't crop) it would still be a phenomenal camera.īut, it's BM, and they like to think big, and for their 10 year anniversary of making cameras, who knows what they'll have up their sleeve. I have no idea if I'm on the right path or not, but it sure would be great if BM released a S35 12K box-style camera with more DR than their other cameras, and would definitely be grabbing the resolution headlines again. There is chatter about BM putting the sensor from the UMP12K into a smaller form-factor RED released the Komodo, which seemed to be a GoPro replacement for the cinema industry, and seems to be a popular option (and makes spectacular images) I have no idea what it would be, but to me there are a couple of key aspects that I think (hope) might play into things:īM discontinued the Micro Cinema Camera relatively recently, and currently have no camera aimed at drones or rigging This, to me, is an enormous wink and a nod at the idea that BM will announce something big.
It dropped on the floor of NAB like a bomb. It was announced the first day of NAB in 2012. It was about 10 years ago that Blackmagic truly shocked all by announcing that they had made a cinema camera. Then Brawley created a new thread talking about how NAB will be the 10 year anniversary of the release of the first BM cinema camera. One aspect that was discussed was that BM haven't given any previous PR to anything, which is what they usually do / have done in the past. with the implication that BM have a relatively regular release schedule and that we are either due, or overdue, depending on how you read the timeline. It started in this thread on the BM forums where the release history was outlined by Tim Buttner:
There's a bit of buzz building around BM announcing a new camera at NAB.
