While many digital cameras these days can shoot 4K-resolution video, it's a feature that often takes a back seat to still-photo features. But if you're the type of photographer or filmmaker who tends to focus on video, you can spend thousands of dollars for a high-end professional, full-size camcorder, which will provide you with a lot of quality — but you may not have the budget for it. Aside from that, most stand-alone, camcorder-like models offer consumer-grade video that's more low-end. The new model targets those who want a very portable, relatively rugged, versatile camera or device that primarily shoots video. It's a device that doesn't easily fit into any one category. The Blackmagic is an exception, since it can accept various mirrorless lenses. How portable is it, and who is this product for. However, enthusiast and prosumer filmmakers will probably put up blackmagic pocket 4k a little inconvenience, bulk and weight, if the camera captures high-quality video and has powerful, versatile features. They're also the group who will pay extra for a pricey step-up camera like this. Blackmagic is targeting independent filmmakers, documentary photographers, fashion shooters, travel vloggers, and wedding and corporate videographers, as well as sports and event shooters. What type of sensor does it have. What type or types of lenses does it accept. Here's one way Blackmagic's camera stands out from most interchangeable-lens cameras, although it's questionable how valid the claim is. When you buy a Nikon, Canon, Sony, Olympus, Panasonic or Pentax camera, you are committed to that company's lens mount. So, if you buy a Canon camera, you can only use lenses that fit a Canon mount. Likewise for Nikon, Sony and Pentax. That's because such adapters generally come with compromises, such as fewer autofocus options. It will be interesting to see how well this camera works when users are swapping out different lens brands. That's nice if you're looking to use a telephoto lens, but if you want blackmagic pocket 4k shoot wide angle, your 24mm lens will be cropped and have a view of 48mm, which isn't wide-angle at all.

Blackmagic is also claiming that photographers can use the same drive they captured video footage on to do their video editing and post-production work. Additionally, Blackmagic is claiming that there are no proprietary files, so it will work with all types of software. How does it record audio. Audio, one of the most underappreciated aspects in blackmagic pocket 4k, looks quite promising on the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K. First of all, it includes four built-in microphones. That means you can connect very good-quality, professional-grade mics, which will undoubtedly allow for compelling audio, from interviews to shooting street or on-location footage.
