STOP! Don't Buy a Cinema Camera Until You Watch This

[@mrmookay]

The irony is if the BMPCC 4K cost 10k, no one would complain about the 'missing' features or battery life.

[@BlackWarriorLures]

Honestly I think part of the problem is they made the price so cheap that they've attracted an audience that really isn't ready for true cinema cameras. After rigging up my GH4 like a cinema camera, running old lenses, external preamps and external recorders, everyone said, "Buy a GH Panasonic:" I hate it, hate it, hate it!

[@miguelcastro5754]

Black Warrior Lures agree, these people are mad spoiled brats but I’m glad there is still people that understand how this works

[@gopolarisstudio]

It's consumerism, lol

[@genxtechguy]

The latest bmpcc 6k sucks .. sure it has great image quality, good low light abilities, great color science, 12-bit RAW formats, 6k resolution, high frame rates, affordable price point, and good dynamic range ... BUT it doesn’t have dual pixel autofocus combined with IBIS like the GH5 .. what was Black Magic thinking? I’m joking of course.

[@FlashFilmAcademy]

hahahhaha

[@kolinovertheelements]

Im weak lmaooo

[@lorisalberti3234]

😂

[@miguelcastro5754]

Lol you definitely had to put “im joking” cause that would of triggered wayyyy too many people. For anyone wondering Ibis fucks up image flares btw and autofocus cant read your mind as to what you want in focus

[@hansyang1697]

Damn! almost friendly fired!

[@uniworkhorse]

Love how real you are about how it sounds to pros when people talk about autofocus - the reality is that most people who learn about cameras gear do so from popular reviewers who make videos for fast turnaround content online, and thus their needs center around speed and accessibility! I know this because I am one of those viewers LOL. It's easy to forget that the amount of high end working cinematographers and videographers is proportionally tiny compared to the actual viewer base :) Great distinctions between the 3 major branches of video!

I appreciate the info so much coming from someone who is looking to buy a camera and has no previous experience. thank you 🙏🏼

[@endaoconnor]

I get about an hour from my battery with my Red if I am really lucky. That is with a battery that you could fit almost 16 batteries that fit inside the Blackmagic pocket 4K.

[@DSellens]

I like your videos, you have a "warm hug" personality.

[@FlashFilmAcademy]

hahhahahha thanks

[@iDesignMemoriesWP]

Great info since I’m ready to pull the trigger on the Pocket 4K. Just sent a GH5 back.

[@Ladraz]

correct but u cant blame someone for wanting everything, for example if i had the money an i bought a RED or ARRI i would love for them to have auto focus, because even if u don't want to use it, its still an option... the camera that's going and WIN is one that can do everything... which is very possible in the future..

[@luca_hc_gruber]

If you have money for an Arri you have money for a focus puller 😅

[@FlashFilmAcademy]

No camera can do everything. Like no car can do everything. However if your skilled enough to have the ability to purchase a racecare you're not going to complain about the radio.

[@Ladraz]

@@FlashFilmAcademy "No camera can do everything" (Yet)... back a few years, no one would of though a Still camera could do video, or a cell phone can do both, that's the point of ingenuity... "you're not going to complain about the radio."... does not mean the company cant put in one... the point of humans complaining is about improvement...

[@Ladraz]

if you understand what business is, if you could rent an equipment and only needs 1 person to fully operate it, verses needing to hire 2 or more person... does not matter how rich u are, cheaper cost means cheaper cost once the job can get completed in the same time or better, how ever since we know auto focus is not 100% there yet its understandable than u would need to hire a focus puller...

[@adnanerochdi6982]

you have great content, great looking set up and lighting the only thing that's not is the video bitrate, even 1080p the image is soft and shows low quality artifacts. :)

[@JosephelLeon]

I'm watching this a year after it was released... Still, I must say this is one of the best videos I've ever seen on the subject! Thanks.

[@baddogentertainment6960]

You've always got sensible videos man. keep up the good work

[@EJZ8]

I agree with everything u said but o still think if the bmpcc 6k had phase detect af it would be crazy useful like it is in the c200 cus at the end of the day the people who r renting Alexas and have focus pullers r not the same people who r buying the bmpcc 6k they need the Independence.

[@LoopResistant]

Is there any reason you would recommend getting the 4K over the 6K? Besides the price?

[@Perrylayne105]

I really enjoy your videos. You are an incredibly likable guy!

[@FlashFilmAcademy]

thanks bro!!

[@davidellzey8699]

Nailed it.

[@davidellzey8699]

I hit reply too quick, as an experienced VFX professional (with over 20 years on Fusion, *yikes!*) I really appreciate this take on the BMPCC as a piece of the image acquisition solution. An important piece but still just a piece that needs the rest of the kit fleshed out. Also it was refreshing to hear someone call out that "garbage in" always results in "garbage out" but "quality in" is just the first step for a successful post production.

[@makestuffmike]

Thinking about adding a 6k or 4k, so torn right now! What to do?

[@alexciprian]

Very awesome and informative. Subscribed :)!

[@trentonharrisphotos]

Great video, you mentioned the number one reason why to buy the BMPCC 6k and that is superior image quality. The only reason I have not already owned a Cinema camera or video camera before now is because I am a true hybrid shooter. My projects are split between video and still photography. However, more projects are moving toward video production now and my mirrorless and DSLRs are not giving me the quality The BMPCC 6k is at the perfect price point that I can buy that without having to sell my still bodies. Also, the EF mount will let me use all my Canon glass or rent reasonable priced Cine lenses. It's also good to see a fellow combat camera still behind the camera (USMC Combat Camera 99-07).

Love your content man! I've been thinking recently that it would actually be pretty cool if BM released a firmware update to shoot .mp4 to diversify your post workflows for different projects .etc even though it will always primarily be a cinema camera. what you think?

[@bm625]

I did a shit ton of research when I was trying to decide which camera to buy and I finally decided on the BMPCC 6K knowing full well that I was getting a camera that was designed for filmmaking and that it wasn't designed for photography. I don't regret my decision at all. The camera is great.

[@mach10media]

Thank you! You finally said what a lot of KZbinrs don't even know because they're not really "film" makers. They are content creators! Smart and clear! You have a new fan! Cinema cameras are not made for run and gun! Thank you Blackmagic for the battery slot!

[@dissolution]

Just based on the title I wanted to come here and trash talk - but you nailed.

[@daniellediamond457]

I used the touch screen focus a lot on my new BMPCC 6K in a music video shoot recently and it worked great. I think maybe some people don't know about that feature.

Tom Antos prefers to use his GH4 instead of the RED for many reasons and I am starting to agree with him.

[@LikeAGentlemanPlease]

Damn you need more followers. People are subbing to KZbinrs who actually compares a7iii to bmpcc 6K like it’s in the same class. Might as well compare a fully featured Honda Accord to an low end Ferrari. That’s what they’re doing.

[@ReelHooking]

[@nicholasboule5134]

hey this Ferrari doesn't have blind spot detect and the gas mileage is 5 mpg wtf Ferrari lololol

[@filmtips6983]

They do it because it’s fun to watch, it’s not meant to be taken seriously

[@Hectordirector]

Mango Steel agree

[@BrianMakesFilms]

This video is fantastic. So articulate. It basically sums up my frustration with people on facebook and forums crying about the camera and treating it like a video camera or DSLR. I waited a long time after it came out, and did a lot of research before pulling the trigger. And I love it. I don't treat it like a DSLR and was prepared for the rigging required, and it serves me fantastic. But the key is knowing what you're getting into and if it's right for you...and in fact it does what it's intended to do very well. Once you understand its capabilities and limitations, I'd even argue it DOES do well in uncontrolled situations, but you have to understand the tools you need to make it work in a wedding environment the same way that people who shoot weddings on RED cameras do.

[@framerofworlds9984]

Amen, you can tell the people who have worked with real cinema cameras and those who are videographers.

[@rmcapturez5808]

Everybody starts somewhere regardless...lets not down nobody

[@dukebozikowski3801]

I agree with you but there’s a lot of people out there who want a hybrid camera with cinema video quality so they can make their run and gun short films look amazing. And I get that these people shouldn’t be looking at cinema cameras, I totally agree with that. However we’re all just waiting for something like the a7siii and hoping that it has that cinema quality with all the benefits of having a hybrid camera. I’m talking about extra raw but a compressed raw where it already has distortion corrected and Sony’s low light algorithms with noise reduction. I’m talking about internal Electronic ND filters, fast and accurate auto focus, really good stills capabilities, etc.

[@alexandreaq9493]

agree

[@miguelcastro5754]

BozDuke13 yes but thats why the pocket 4k literally has “cinema” on its name. Everything is manual and perfectly freely for people to do all sorts of things. Videographers should understand that shit if they have brains

[@tm4tare]

Great video sir!Many people do not understand the difference between a video camera and a cinema camera!Hopefully this will educate the masses who complain about autofocus and IBIS on a cinema camera!

[@insayno]

The whole reason i bought a BMPCC4K (after i used two BMPCC's) was the image quality and being able to control your whole image in post production. I love the endless possibilities in colorgrading even with multiple LUTS and layers without crushing the footage. The BMPCC was the first camera i bought. A lot of people told me it was headache for a beginner, but i really didnt care. I loved the image quality and that was where i was going for. I was willing to sacrifice my mental health and sanity to achieve those images. Within a year i made enough money to buy a BMPCC4K. I shoot all my client work on it now. From coorperate, to wedding video's and music video's. The BMPCC4K can be used as a run and gun camera. It just needs a bit more patience and strategy to control your environment. That is why i always bring lamps and reflectors with me. I wouldnt trade it for the world.

[@natkutje182]

MCinsayno Sounds great! Any tips on finding clients/first projects? I recently got mine and already did some work but want to get more experience and find clients :(

[@gopolarisstudio]

Does the BMPCC4k work on a gimbal? I always heard the form factor didn't fit

[@TortangTalongBT]

wow.. i usually steer away from KZbin for gadget reviews as I just don't trust their reviews, almost all of them. We need more people like you here on KZbin

[@jacopoabbruscato9271]

As soon as you said "Things they would not complain about if they knew what a cinema camera is" I knew autofocus, image stabilization and battery life would come into play. Spot on.

[@carlosq00]

Lots of terrific points here. The focus comments are spot on...there are times where focus or the ability to direct focus is what makes a take because it helps tell the story and direct the attention of the audience. 🎥👊🏽👍🏽

[@asando6432]

here what you also need to know: Update 7.9 bricked my BMPCC4K. any suggestions?

[@jackychung819]

You are totally right. A lot of people complaint about its poor battery life and not having a flip screen. They don't realize what they bought is a cinema camera not a mirrorless camera. You have to rig it up, buy an external monitor and V mount battery in order to use a cinema camera. Maybe the form factor and price make them think they are buying a mirrorless camera. My BMPCC 4K just arrived a few days ago and Im loving it so much. Great video!

[@jermangarc]

Dude! Thank you! Right on point, and thanks for keeping it real. It’s hard to find real advice that is based on real life hard experience in the field that is relevant. Keep it up bro!

[@darrengeorge8506]

Thanks for this. Unfortunately so many people are into specs and trends so they will buy it anyways. I've always asked myself "What's the best camera for THIS SPECIFIC job?" That's the best question to ask

[@Patrick_AUBRY]

The first cam I used was a ENG cam with NO FOCUS ! BetacamSP era, the 90's Now I heard there's a BMPCC4K adapter for the Canon constant aperture zoom lens I used back in the days for an ENG camera. I wonder if the glass is good enough for 4K DCI res. ?

Great video thanks for this. I just ordered a BMPCC 4K with a Sigma Art 18-35 on a Metabones 0.58 speedbooster and it'll arrive in 3 months they said. I researched for months and months for the right camera for my style and this is perfect you basically comfirmed everything nicely for me. The one thing that stuck out though is the RAW format you were talking about. I want to shoot in RAW of course that is one of the reasons I went this route, do have any videos on how to add it to your workflow? I knew about the lumetri but then you mentioned other things to take in to account. Would love to learn more about that while I am waiting for the camera to arrive! Thanks again!

[@DatrysiadMedia]

When I bought the G7 I knew the autofocus was bad, but I knew the goal was to get a black magic or another cinema camera so I was like, dont need it, need to practice focus pulling and control my environment, lighting as best I can, those things you are forced to learn which is the route I want to take

[@austinwilson4785]

Great points that no one is talking about, awesome video!

[@IsQuiCupiet]

I guess every now and then there is the need to address this. When BMPCC 4K was public I remember reading and/or hearing comments complaining about, as you said, things like the screen, the battery, the lack of autofocus. It was like Blackmagic did that on purpose in order to make people upset: «why didn’t you put this or that feature?». I mean, for some of those decisions there is at least even a technical reason, as for the fact that the battery lasts 30/40 minutes for example. That said, I guess the keyword here is in fact the one you kept repeating on this video: «modular». I’m not a pro but I still feel like I’m stating the obvious here but it strikes me everytime how today, with so many channels at our disposal, we struggle nonetheless in order to get our info right. I think is cultural: we see the quality, then we compare it to the price and voila... we pretend the learning curve to be as “inexpensive” as the money we spend for the gear. It is something I myself need to re-address often since I’m a son of this Age as well: work, work and work. Thanks for the content.

[@drewthomas1534]

If you're the type of filmmaker that looks at an Arri Alexa and wonders why it has so much crap attached to it, this camera is not for you. Get a GH5. This is a dedicated cinema camera for filmmakers. It's impractical, expensive to setup, and just plain amazing. If you want run and gun and convenient stabilization, buy a GH5. Also Fuji and Black Magic still have the best color short of Arri/Red, which I can't afford and surely you can't afford either most likely =). So if you want a much better color profile than what the GH5/5s can offer, but you're on the fence about this then, get a Fujifilm XT3 and slap it on a gimbal. Better than in body stabilization anyways.

Good info boss for all the kids out there that want to "emulate Hollywood Cinema". Howevever, Tell them to STOP shooting EVERYTHING in Slo-Mo, They need to learn, Slow Motion does NOT Equal Cinematic. Shooting Cinematically equals Cinema. Also teach them WHY Hollywood uses ONLY Cinema cameras for %100 control over the image being recorded or filmed. They can see examples of this simply by putting on their Favorite 3 movies and count just how many Slo-Mo sequences are in those films. The number will be ZERO or close to it. The camre you buy will NOT magically transform you or your content into a "Cinematographer". it takes years! of learning.... 1-Cinematic Lighting / for a natural look and feel. 2-What Lens to use for each particular Scene. 3-Focal Lengths 4-Hight of camera to subject. 5-Distance of camera to subject. 6-Camera movement is needed. 7-Frame Rate and why. 8-What filtees to use and when. 9-And just as important? as the video?, The quality of your Sound.

I would never agree that DSLR/mirrorless aren’t quality compared to cinema cameras.. I’ve seen canon 5d mkII footage matched with red quality years ago ... I shoot with ursa and match my A7sII with it and no huge difference except color grading but if you know how to use your tool and understand lighting and getting it right out the camera you’ll win every time...

Your explanation of what a cinema camera is as compared to DSLR Mirrorless and video cameras was excellent. I almost sold my Nikon to help purchase my BMPCC glad I did'nt, I have both. I watched a video comparing the BMPCC to a Sony Mirrorless and another Mirrorless camera with a different perspective.

[@liviudrimbe831]

what I want is a combination between, a cinama cam and a ninja v with the qualities of a A7iii , Z6 and BMPCC 6K. If the Fs5 would have had these qualities would have been a perfect video camera. in fact a fs 5 with a full frame sensor from sony or Nikon with a screen from fantom 4 pro+, functions and capabilities from a Ninja V, auto focusing from Sony imagine stabilizare from GH5 which records in 4K on a ssd 24,25,60,50,120frs in MOV, pro rez. it should be called NIKON Envy 1, because everyone will be envious. ;)))

[@hchattaway]

This was perfect.. Great explanation of what a cinema camera really is... Does seem to be a LOT of whining on BMPCC sites about all of the things you mentioned... Thanks for the explanation!

[@milesmccall2301]

I understand the history and and that high dollar shoots don't use autofocus, but having usable autofocus would skyrocket marketability and value of the bmpcc. And there's no downside, having autofocus as an option in no way negates the ability to use manual. But opens up usability for small crews or unusual uses. 1st AC's are expensive. I for one would rather pay an extra $200 for a version with Sony or even Fuji tier autofocus, save the money/hastle every time I don't have to hire a second operator on jib shots and interview b-cams that don't absolutely need one. Or be able to use my $1300 investment for less formal work like self filming or family events, instead of having to buy a second camera. I'd even go in another few $100 for IBIS, because why not? You can always just turn it off. As you've said before, it's not a race car, it's a Camaro. IMO autofocus and even IBIS make sense on almost every camera except top grade rigs which will absolutely never use them. But that's not what the bmpcc is. Cheers

HI Mr Turner, first of all let me begin by saying that i think that I've watched every video that you've done whether it pertains to me or not. I think that all your videos are incredibly educational and I've definitely have learned a lot from your videos. so thank you! what I like to know is what are your thoughts on the BMPCC 6K VS the S1H in terms of "a controlled environment " filming and wolfcrow's scientific opinions on the BMPCC 6K and 4k. and "the DP journey's" thought on the S1H vs BMPCC 6k and his thought on the IBIS feature that we now find in hybrid cameras and where the future is heading with those features.

I truly hope that you can give a little feedback not only for me but for a lot of individuals in my shoes watching and learning from your videos. your feedback is invaluable to me and I'm sure to many others. thank you

That designation, "Pocket Camera" doesn't quite stand behind its name. It doesn't really want to fit in a pocket🤔, less you doesn't have a very big pockets🤪. But it is one of the first cameras with Panasonic's GH5 to provide for an ordinary working-class consumer possibility to get cinematic motion picture quality🎬. Of course, in that low price tag some compromises must have done.🧐 But when the gear is right in order, then comes to the picture your talent, and that's the thing you cannot buy.....🎭😏

I'm really glad you made this video, I agree with everything you said, every time I try to explain what you said on a group page other other social media page, I get attacked 😂

🤷🏾‍♂️ I posted this in a few groups and got attacked

[@Racreatives]

@@FlashFilmAcademy Now try to talk about blackmagic on a red camera group 😂

[@jimveybe7689]

Yep, the whines scream AMATEUR. I get it though, the bmpcc 4k is most people's first try at a cinema camera from a history in DSLRs.

Woow bro I’m so glade I found your channel… u are helping me understand this field so much… thank u….

[@jessicagarcia7558]

I just bought the Original BMPCC. I'm rigging it out and its awesome. I just reather use my black magic and save my money later on to get the E camera that just came out. As I'm saving money for that I can buy all the lenses the speed booster the monitors I'm thinking about getting a Ninja V later on this way I'll have everything when I upgrade. Love you're channel. 🤘😎

Hey, I'm thinking about buying this camera. I pretty much only make narrative films in a run and gun style with a 70-200 lens. If I rig this out, can I get stable enough shots?! I'm considering the S1h for its IBIS. But will it be that much better?

[@ravi0ly]

You really can't complain about the BMPCC. It's an insane camera with it's own RAW codec and you get the best color grading application there is for FREE!. Also blackmagic released an update so you can edit and grade your braw footage in premiere. It is WAY to cheap for what it really is, trust me.
