Combine the Super 35mm sensor with the camera's ability to expose for 12 stops of dynamic range, and you get a truly film-like look. The camera's built-in recorder uses 2.5" removable SSDs capable of recording the high data rates that RAW and 880Mbps ProRes demand.The Blackmagic Production Camera 4k features a beautifully engineered design, with a machined aluminum chassis and a built-in 5" LCD touchscreen display that allows you to monitor and change settings and enter metadata directly on the camera. With standard connections and an internal battery inside a beautiful machined aluminum design, you can be confident that the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K will easily handle the rigors of location work.Super 35 Sensor with Global Shutter With a large Super 35 size sensor you get familiar framing and behavior from the lenses you already own. The sensor features a global shutter so you get perfect panning, and with minimal crop factor, you also get beautiful wide angle shots from your wide angle lenses. If you're working in HD, you'll love the freedom to reframe and zoom into shots without any resolution loss. When down scaling from 4K to HD you get incredibly smooth and clean images.Canon EF Compatible Lens Mount The EF compatible lens mount allows you to choose high quality optics designed to take advantage of the large Super 35 size sensor with minimal cropping. Use the world's most amazing optics from leading lens crafters like Canon, Zeiss and more, with full electronic control.Touchscreen Display Use the capacitive touchscreen to access menus to change settings such as recording format, shutter angle and more.

Tap once on the screen to display the metadata entry page where you can enter information such as shot number, search tags, scene number, timecode and more. You can even set shot number and other data to increment automatically. This metadata saves directly into your files and is compatible with popular editing software. Ultra HD 4K and 1080HD Record Ultra HD 4K and 1080HD in visually lossless compressed CinemaDNG RAW and ProRes 422 (HQ) files. At a massive 3840 x 2160 pixels, Ultra HD 4K is 4 times the size of 1080HD. The camera also features a single 6G-SDI output which supports Ultra HD live production.Built-in SSD Recorder With a built-in SSD recorder, the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K easily captures 4K in ProRes 422 (HQ) and compressed CinemaDNG files. Capturing to a removable SSD means that once you've finished shooting you can simply connect the SSD to your computer and edit or color correct your shots straight from the disk. Disks can be formatted in either HFS+ or exFAT for Mac and Windows compatibility.12 Stops of Dynamic Range The Blackmagic Production Cinema Camera 4K captures 12 stops of dynamic range, allowing you to capture brilliant images beyond those of regular video cameras or even the highest end broadcast cameras. All this dynamic range is captured into ProRes or CinemaDNG files at 4K resolution, so images retain a beautiful film look. By capturing more detail from the sensor you get all kinds of flexibility in post production. You can really push the shadows or highlights in either direction and preserve fine details in the image.Standard Connections Blackmagic Production Camera 4K uses standard connections, so you never need to source custom cables. It includes a 6G-SDI connection for Ultra HD resolution or down converted HD output over a single SDI cable. The built in Thunderbolt connection lets you plug into a laptop computer and use the included UltraScope software for real time waveform monitoring. There are 1/4" jack mic/line inputs for recording the highest quality uncompressed audio, plus a 12V to 30V DC input, a 3.5mm headphone input socket and LANC remote control.
