station - product hardware and software companyBlack Magic Designhas just announced their entry in the tv camera - crap business with theirCinema Camera . The cam sway 2.5 thousand recording in RAW formats , meaning the prototype wo n’t suffer due to in - camera compression and will presumably preserve extremely unspecific active grasp . More impressive , though , is the toll tag .
The Cinema Camera ’s $ 3000 expect cost is devilishly cheap , given that it jam lineament that the most high - terminal video adequate to DSLRs have thus far lacked . One of the biggest ill against cameras like the Canon 5D Mark II and Mark III is that the h.264 compression really muddies up the figure of speech . The BlackMagic Cinema Camera ’s RAW workflow look to wipe out that .
Notable spectacles let in :
