Hi
I've been lurking for a long time on these forums and still not bought a BM camera yet! I have a bmpc4k on preorder though.
Ive been wanting to get a bmpcc original as I love the image and it's so tiny. I would just use it for b roll and always have it in my backpack.
Is it possible to see the bmpcc page on the blackmagic website? I can't find it but would like to see the specs and the file sizes for files etc. Do they archive this page?
Also the screen, I know it's not good but is it unusable in most circumstances? Considering I'd be using panasonic.lenses with one touch autofocus, often for wide shots where focus will be easier. In the sun can I atleast see the framing even if I can't see if it's perfectly focussed?
Are there any portable options for a screen hood/eye piece thing! Sorry I don't know what it's called. I've not found anything in the UK.
Also, how long do the batteries last on the bmpcc? I've read various things, but is about 30/40 mins right? Is there any decent battery solution that doesn't require a big rig?
And finally, I've seen that there's this issue with SD cards not being supported. This is a serious concern but after going through the other threads of seems no solution has been found. Do you think any solution will arise for this in the future or will it only get worse? It's a shame if so
And does this SD card issue exist on the micro cinema camera too? I was thinking it can't as they still sell it
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I've spent 8 hours on my phone today obsessing! I need to stop
