Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera 2.5K PL Mount + FREE 240GB SSD Insights

The Cinema Camera PL Mount with Free 240GB SSD by Blackmagic Design features cinematic Super 35 sized sensors with global shutter. Includes 12 stops of dynamic range, built in 4K RAW and ProRes SSD recorder, touch screen with metadata entry, strong machined aluminum chassis and more. Includes DaVinci Resolve software for a complete solution for shooting, editing, color correcting and finishing 4K digital film.

PL Lens Mount
The PL lens mount allow you to use, or even rent, professional cinema lenses from companies such as Panavision, ARRI or Zeiss. You can even use vintage PL cinema lenses when you're shooting period work where you want to recreate the look of that time by using the actual lens they used back in those days

Shoot Digital Film
The reason the latest and most amazing television commercials, music videos and feature films look so goodies because they've been shot with a digital film camera and then color corrected using DaVinci Resolve. Video camera, even high end broadcast video camera, always just look like sharper home movies because they're limited to a regular video sensor. Blackmagic Cinema Camera is true wide dynamic range digital film camera designed to shoot with cinematic quality. Imagine adding the style and quality of digital film to your latest TV commercial, feature film, music video or even documentary, weddings or corporate videos.

Wide Dynamic Range
Video camera clip highlights and shadows giving you images that look like video. Some cameras use multiple exposures or "HDR mode" to simulate wide dynamic range but that doesn't work well with motion video where you have movement. Blackmagic Cinema Camera shoots each frame with wide dynamic range so you get brighter highlights without clipping and rich detail and shadows. The ultra wide dynamic range 2.5K sensor has so much range that you can even shoot indoors with correct exposure and still get full detail through windows outside! This is the secret that allows feature film imagery when color grading with DaVinci Resolve.

Super Small, Super Tough
The Cinema Camera has been precision engineered from machined metal and miniaturized using the latest advanced electronics to deliver a rugged digital film camera that has the strength to be rigged even when supporting a heavy PL mount lens. Unlike most camera that use plastic, the machined metal design of the Blackmagic Cinema Camera can be hand held, rigged on cranes, used on steady cam and more. The super small design still includes an SSD recorder capable of recording RAW, touch screen LCD, internal active cooling for the cinematic sensor and standard SDI, audio and Thunderbolt connections.

High Resolution
With the choice of two high resolution sensors, at 2.5K ultra wide dynamic range or 4K wide dynamic range, you get enough resolution to reframe shots, eliminate bayer loss for full resolution color and to shoot in native Ultra HD. With the latest incredibly large screen TV's available to consumers the demand for Ultra HD content has never been greater.

Touch screen Display
The heart of the design is the built in 5 inch touch screen that's as easy to use as typing on your smart phone! You can frame shots, view histogram and audio meters on the heads up display as well as change camera settings and enter metadata all on the built in screen. You can also control other camera features via the touch screen such as double tapping the screen to zoom into the image for easy focus and swiping up and down controls for the "heads up display" that shows histogram, time remaining and audio level meters so you can get perfect exposure and audio levels! The status strip displays transport status, shutter, aperture, ISO, battery and more.

Direct Metadata Entry
The built in high resolution 5" LCD touch screen can be used for entering metadata directly into the camera by simply typing on the soft keyboard, so it's as easy to use as any Smartphone. Shot number can automatically increment, so you don't have to enter it for each shot! Entering metadata directly into the camera means every time you record the shot information is recorded into the media file so editing software such as DaVinci Resolve 11 or Final Cut Pro X can quickly identify and locate the shot you need when you are in post production saving editing time and eliminating manual logging.

Super Fast SSD
Most professional digital film cameras use proprietary media only available from the manufacturer which increases the cost of using the camera. The Blackmagic Cinema Camera eliminate this "usage tax" by using off the shelf computer solid state disks, or SSDs, so you can buy high performance storage media at much lower cost as well as getting higher speeds and capacity by taking advantage of the latest generation SSDs the moment they are available. SSDs can be mounted on your Mac or Windows machine using adapter cables or a Blackmagic MultiDock and because the speeds are so high you can edit directly off the SSD without time wasting file copying.

Open Standard File Formats
Blackmagic Cinema Camera record directly to files that are compatible with all major post applications. That means there's no time wasted converting files before you start editing and color correction in post production. Blackmagic Cinema Camera record ProRes so are very easy to use and even high resolution 4K ProRes files will play back from laptop computers. When recording RAW, files are still open format and use the open standard CinemaDNG RAW format so you get all the data off the sensor stored in a file that's compatible with many software applications as well as the included DaVinci Resolve editing and color correction software.

Industry Standard Connections
When you're on-set the last thing you need is to hold up dozens of very expensive people while you look around for a custom camera cable! The Blackmagic Cinema Camera use standard connectors so you can simply use regular video, audio and power cables plus you save money because you don't need to purchase custom accessories.

DC Power
The built in rechargeable battery can record for up to 90 minutes and makes the Blackmagic Cinema Cameras truly portable! You also get a standard 12 - 30V power connector so that you can add external professional battery packs such as V-Lock or any other DC power pack. That means you'll be able to shoot longer and recharge the internal battery at the same time.

Custom Rigs
The top of the camera has three 1/4" thread mounting points for easily adding ambient and directional microphones, shoe mounts, EVFs, cages and more! The thread mount located on the bottom of the camera lets you secure the camera to tripods, attach handles, stabilizing systems, rails and even quad-copter drones.

Use Your Favorite Software
The files you record on Blackmagic Cinema Camera is compatible with virtually every video software tool available on every computer platform available. Simply plug the SSD into your computer and drop the files straight into the software you want to use. Now you can use powerful editing, color correction, visual effects, audio post production tools such as DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro X, Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro CC, ProTools, Nuke, Fusion and many more.

DaVinci Resolve Included

That means you get a complete solution for managing and backing up your media, editing, color correction and authoring final video and film master files for distribution.
