What's its new little name, BMSC4KP or BMSCP ?

I'm surprised I've never heard of this camera before. Turns out that TV production is a whole different world.

You guys are amazing! This was a proper review bro! Great information!

Extremely valuable as usual! I've been watching your channel for a while now, and I like how you provide value in your content as much as in your production. Keep up the great work! I don't understand the interest in keeping the mft mount for studio cameras, having done all kind of live production it's clear to us that B4 is the way to go unless you plan on bringing a whole range of accessories to help you better control zoom/focus on all mft lenses..it won't be comparable.

just found this channel. The moment i saw you i just subscribed.

Excellente review. Merci beaucoup, tu as tout dit !!

The Zoom and Focus demands are great in theory, but the big issue with the zoom demand is compatibility. So far the only lenses I have found that aren't discontinued are: The Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 and the Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 45-175mm f/4-5.6. Its weird that they would put out a product with such a narrow range of compatible lenses. You'd really need a servo zoom motor to take advantage of the MFT range.

BMD external zoom motor is essential to use MFT lenses in broadcast style :)

Amazing! Thanks for this thorough review. Still waiting on ours :)

This is so dope. I learned a lot enjoyed the video as well. You are a great teacher. 📸

you share very vital information

As always from you old chap (AKA Zebrazone) - a very good well balanced piece - thank you... John M Sadly BMD have (as of yet) failed to provide either a B4 or EF mount option on this product, which is a great pity IMHO - the 4 screws holding the MFT mount might hopefully mean that this is a possible future option? Otherwise it will mean a third party adapter will be the way forward?

Great review. Lots of good information. It is the camera I have been waiting for, but the lack of lenses available worries me. Interesting thought about the zoom motor, I did wonder why they are shipping the base plate for rods.

Thank you for a great review!! Ex. zoom motor and B4 adapter would be awesome!

Merci pour la review, thanks for the review !

Wow. That's great. I will need one. And i love the way u explained it. Is explicit 👍

I have a B4 Lens attached w/adaptor to my GH5s. Love it ! So, I share your idea of promoting B4 lenses to fit the BMSC 4K Pro. I would gladly attach my existing B4 lens to it.

An extra $895 for the studio converter, extremely disappointing. NDI +POE solutions are becoming much more affordable. BMD missing the mark here... $1795 for MFT camera + $895 converter + $999 lens. A 4 camera studio going to start at $12,000, and that's without a switcher --- BirdDog and PTZ Optics are laughing IMO.

man u r back💥🤛👍

Maybe Midle Things can make a solution for other zoom lenses? I hope for a zoom motor from Blackmagic but i don’t think they will.. Could you make something like that?

Unfortunately you did not talk about one of the biggest weakness of the studio cameras (and Blackmagic in general): autofocus. We have the old studio cameras and basically you have to manually focus everything. Otherwise it is a great review. Thanks for the sample footage and the lens recommendation.

Thanks for the review!

Blackmagic makes zoom and focus demands for use on the studio camera. But there are entirely TWO Olympus lenses that feature electronic zoom. And the only zoom at one speed on those Olympus lenses. Again- without a B4 mount and the 7-speed ramping zoom lens attached to the front, BMD is not going to sell very many zoom controls for the Studio camera, and then they'll discontinue the controls- essentially fueling the failure of their own accessories.

Très bonne review ! Merci beaucoup !!!👍 Love from Paris 🇨🇵

Awesome! Thank you!

I totally agree, a external zoom motor would be very great and useful ! ;)

These cameras are almost exclusively used with b4 lenses, in fact some of your broll had box b4 mount lenses on the camera. You simply engage the doubler.

Great video man

Great review! I have used a B4 YJ20x8.5 lens with 2 x extender and a fotodiox adaptor on almost 80 streams and recordings with amazing results. Of course i used with the lens, support and manual focus wire. I did this with the Pocket 4k. Tomorrow i get the studio pro. For me is the bigger screen and sdi output a must...got already reading glasses 3.0 plus. We work with vmix and not atm. We gonna find out if we get tally work on it. For talkbak we use wireless hollyland system. The work is do varius from talkshows to concerts and the parfocal on the B4 lens is very welcome. About the lens.., you need to have luck if you buy one. I have a SD version but i found out that they also sold back in the days as HD lens. Because only in the factory was a slide differences in sharpness and even not visible for the eye. But it saves a ton of money. For the sweetspot set the B4 lens on 4.0 stop. Of course a photolens is sharper but with the streams we never use 4k...its not possible with the hdmi output and the stream downgrade it anyway. But i have so mush advantage because i can zoom en make dynamic slides. Its the main feature why i did so many streams instead of static shots. But you have a good channel and lots of good info...greetings from The Netherlands

Can the camera record RAW via USB-C at the same time while passing out a SDI signal to an ATEM or Hyperdeck? I would figure yes, but would like confirmation. Thanks! Good video.

Super camera

Awesome Job bro...Excellent review

Thanks for information🙏🏻

Watching you right now. What is the full set up are you using? Also need info on recordable storage. I'll be shooting 2 hour continuous videos.

@8:37 The color accuracy of the Pro is more accurate, to my eye.

You can easily use a B4 ENG lens on the camera. Just need the right adaptors. I use a 4-pin XLR power to B4 power and XLR split. So the BM Studio camera and lens are powered up in one cable. Using an IBE HDX1.4 to convert B4 to MFT mount. Unfortunately you still don't get CCU control of the iris, since the camera and lens still can't communicate. It's still a great low-cost alternative to the URSA Broadcast.

HEY MAN! THIS VIDEO IS SICK!!! YOU GUYS ARE AN AWESOME BRAND AND DEFINITELY LOOK FORWARD TO BUYING PRODUCTS FROM YOU GUYS!! BUT.... I DO HAVE A QUESTION AND WOULD LOVE IN THE INFO ON HOW TO MAKE THAT "DIY TALKBACK ADAPTER"!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW YOU DID IT LOL!

Great review! When is the live production comin?

Love your content

This thing has ALMOST everything. If only they had Zoom and Focus attachments! It is SOOO close to perfect... one more attachment and we might have a winner... I would love to have the DZOFilm 10-24 on this thing!

Note to USAdians: "Talkback"? Yeah; they mean "intercom" or (for us old guys) "PL". Not "Studio announce" or "IFB", which is what you might infer. This is a recording.

I can see that the Olymppus 12-100 has a good zoom range. I have the Panasonic H-HSA35100 F2.8 II ASPH 35-100mm but it is not the same range. Before i buy the Olympus , i want to know if it is better.

Nice work, thank you.

Good work dude

Still an amazing job on the demonstration

I found a proper adapter to B4 lenses but it costs more than the camera. It is the MTF one. It has a lens corrector for the vignetting but it is terribly expensive. I have 4 of those but I am having problems justifying to use use it in broadcast purposes due to the poor choices of lenses...

Wow I like this camera ❤️

What a great review. I've been searching for battery options for this camera... Can you help?

Woah, this reminds me a lot of Zebrazone, nice!

Great video!

So sad the lens options are not that straighforward to choose

Zebra guy has another channel. Awesome.

I would like to see you you the back boom wireless transmitter from the camera to the Switcher demonstrate how that works too

Would Middle Things allow you to control the camera settings using the Davinci Speed Editor? Cheers!

This review was incredible. That earned a Subscribe and Like for sure! What tripod are you using? We grabbed this camera and want to make sure we get the right tripod setup as well.

*starts the engines on his a320* "You can also bring up the zebra"

Yes Please! Wow

Nice review

Great review indeed.

Thank you very much for this Video. May I ask, if you had the chance to test the autofocus a little further? I wonder how good - or if at all - the camera could track an object or person in front of it. Would it be possible to have it in a scenario like a one-man show where it would be not operated? Could it be set to somethong like "focus on neares object"? I would be very interested in these answers. Thank's again

How smooth is the zoom and focus? Can you let me know what lens are compatible fro the zoom?

We wan’t to be able to do live recordings in 4k. Right know we use black magic pocket 4k camera’s and the atem mini with a limit to live recording in HD. What’s do we need to make 4k possible?

Is this a new product buddy? Newer than 6k pro?

Hello, have a good time... I have a Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K pro and a Canon CN-E18-80mm T4.4 L IS KAS S lens But the lens is not connected to the camera Please tell me what conversion you used to connect this lens to the Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K pro? thank you

HELLO can i use a lut with this camera while its in a live streaming set up,if so where do i get luts ,how do i install them

Hey, Amazing review! As for the B4 lens, I have seen that the vignetting basically disappears when you use the lens only in x2 mode for MFT cameras. Was this the case with the Studio 4K camera?

Awesome & Thanks :)

The sensor is a lot smaller on the Studio version, depth of field won’t be the same, as well as low light capabilities. I don’t have the dimensions in mind though.

B4 adapter is optically complicated to build, if not impossible.

How to control zoom and focus?

u were in zeebra channel right ?

Same here... we would like a zoom motor from blackmagic. Is the Ronin RS 2 suited for that camera?

HI, INEED CONTROL ZOOM & FOCUS FOR Panasonic Lumix G X Vario 12-35mm which one would you recommend?

Great video! One question, If you use HDMI fiber cables, can you control the camera from ATEM?

What is the best zoom broadcast lens can be used on this Blackmagic Design Studio Camera Pro that controlled from the camera itself

What lenses would be good for the new Blackmagic Design Studio Camera Pro 4K for for big concert events in huge Church filming for long distance

Hi! Have you tried any v-mount batteries and adapters? what are the best options?

Are either of the lenses suggested controllable by the camera? As in zoom and Focus with the added Zoom demand and Focus Demand?

the downside for the focus and zoom remote is that they cant be used at the same time, you would have to zoom, let go of the remote and then focus

but can you take pictures with it??

What powered zoomed lenses in m4/3 do you know of? i’ve only found 3...

If I wanted to record ISO's of each camera feed without forking out for a tonne of storage space, would I be able to take feeds from my Constellation 8k, and output a feed of each camera into the ATEM ISO SDI and switch a live show at the same time? Would this confuse the ATEM Software control (running two 'switchers' at the same time), could this be manipulated through Adam Tows MixEffect Application?

Is the HDMI output less horrible than the bmpcc4k/6k ? that is still my deal-breaker... I cannot use them for live streaming, the HDMI output is really soft... especially unusable for wide shots

You are V E R Y smart! great video!

Great review - now, please tell me that camera is light enough to work with the Ronin RS2 on a long term basis - that would mean I wouldn't have to go down the Birddog NDI route.

Thank you for this video. Quick question for you. I have a sony a7siii and I need a second camera for an additional angle. Its for a home studio for a youtube channel. I also just bought an Atem mini extreme iso. I have the choice of getting another sony camera of lesser value or a BMPCC like the 4k or 6k. Would would you suggest? Do you think the black magic could go well with the sony? Thank you!

I saw you first in your channel.You dont upload anymore?

Anyone figure out if you can playback media directly on camera. How can I preview what I’m recording. Clients want to see when we break

Hey there, very nice video! did i got it right, so the 12-100mm Olympus lens supports a zoom servo internal ?

Would this the correct lens for the 4kpro Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-100mm F4.0 Pro Lens, for Micro Four Thirds Cameras? I just want to make sure that I am ordering the correct lens based on you information

very exclusive thanks genius

18:14 Hi i was unable to use the camera control features using the atem Studio hd and the bmpcc6k, unless i'm wrong can you tell me where i went wrong? from my research the pocket cameras only work with the atem mini , as in camera control , tally features. i tried it on my friends atem mini pro and focus, zoom, color correction all worked on first try. plugged it to my Atm Studio HD and all i could do was switch between cameras. no tally, no camera control. I'm hoping it a firmware update fixable issue. but i'm open to advice.

I love your review...

One of the things that is extremely disappointing about this camera is the remote focus and zoom controls. Blackmagic only lists a few lenses that are compatible and the lenses are not exactly high end lenses. None are static F-stop throughout zoom range so I'm not sure why anyone would spend $500+ for focus/zoom and install a cheap $200 lens.

Dope Video! Btw the body is made of carbon fiber, not plastic, as are all Blackmagic cameras except for the URSA.

What beef or lens was you using on that camera and wet Zoom range was it was it a Canada fujinon

Does this camera have autofocus? If, so, How and where you can set it?

hi there,, could you recommend this camera for green screen live production (UE4/Aximmentry) - does anybody have some experience? thanks in advance

Thanks for the review! Have a question: which MFT lenses could be used with zoom and focus accessories. Couldn’t find the lens from the Blackmagic presentation.

awesome
