Great information on audio for the BMC

PostTue Nov 13, 2012 6:24 am

Robert from JuicedLink gave the BMC a test ride, regarding audio - this is a must watch for everyone who wants to record in that camera.

but still really informative video and nice small product.

Great! There should be more videos out about the cameras pros/cons & get them fixed/adjusted before they ship ;)

Thanks for this! If JuicedLink is correct in their analysis, hopefully BMD will update the BMCC firmware ASAP to address these audio issues. Cheers.

(I'll use my SoundDevices MixPre & various Sennheiser mics with my BMCC.)

I am surprised at how bad the h4n recorder is. I thought a number of people were using these with DSLRs?
