Delivery to UAE, Dubai. And some questions

PostWed Mar 13, 2013 9:31 am

Hi there, I have some questions,
How long it takes to deliver BMC to UAE, in Maximum?
Is there any Official store in UAE so I can see a sample of BMC before I buy it?, Or buy it directly from there?
Also, Can some one tell me what should I buy to get ready camera?
I mean,
SSD, good company, works perfectly with BMC (Show me in amazon or eBay).
Lenses,
And other accessories..
Thanks

Right now, everybody is waiting for their camera, delivery times are impossible to predict, but if you order it now, you will probably see a camera in 3-4 months.

Also, Can some one tell me what should I buy to get ready camera?


Depending on who you talk to, you'll need a battery solution, an SSD and a lense or much much more (matte box, follow focus, rig, ...). For each of those components, there are plenty of discussions in this forum to browse and build your own set.

Hello MaRsA,

I'm a fellow BMC owner in the UAE! Bought it from MediaCast in Dubai. I put down the preorder in late July and received it in December. Back when BMD had the sensor issue. Now I believe its a few weeks waiting period.

First things you need in order of importance:

1. Lens (assuming you already have a lens, if not, thats probably your first choice)
1.1 Fast SSD (w/ SSD Dock)
2. Battery Solution
3. Powerful workstation (MacBook Pro Retina or a Performance Windows Machine)

Thats all you need, the things you want to add are endless, there are a bunch of manufacturers that produce high grade gear for the camera, have a snoop around the web.

Checkout a video I put together shortly after receiving the camera;

We don't ship any of our products directly to customers, so you will need to contact one of our resellers such as MediaCast, mentioned above. For a full list of our resellers in your area, please enter your location here: http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/resellers/
