 When Blackmagic first announced their Pocket Cinema Camera, I didn't think the camera could get any smaller. To my surprise, Blackmagic has done it again with their Micro Cinema Camera. Linus Tectiv's coverage of NAB 2015 is brought to you by Sennheiser, Kingston SD Cards, and Lynda.com. The sensor on the Micro Cinema Camera is a Super 16mm sensor with a claimed rating of 13 stops of dynamic range. The sensor also has both a global and rolling shutter similarly to the newly announced URSA Mini. For the lens mount, Blackmagic has continued using the Active Micro 4.3 lens mount, just like on the Pocket Cinema Camera. Moving onto physical specs, the camera controls are now on the front of the camera. Initially this decision might seem odd, but if you look past it, it makes a lot of sense. Blackmagic has designed this camera to be used on small to medium sized drones. With the controls on the front, you'll be able to easily access all you need on the camera without having to reach around awkwardly, not knowing if you're pushing the correct button. Moving onto I.O. on the camera, on the right side it has a full sized HDMI, Blackmagic's new expansion port which can be used to make specialized cables that can control the settings of the camera. One example they had was rigging it to work with an RC remote for wireless control of all of the settings. On the left side of the camera we find an SD card slot and microphone input for when you want to attach an external mic. The Micro Camera is capable of raw recording as well as many flavors of Apple ProRes. For power, Blackmagic has gone with the widely used Canon LPE6 battery, which many shooters will already have plenty of from using Canon DSLRs. Blackmagic also announced a second variation on the Micro Camera which has an ever so slightly larger sensor that is 4K capable. This version of the camera is geared more towards broadcast production, trading its internal SD card recording slot for a 6G SDI in and out. While not a direct competitor to say an action camera, this camera is a good alternative if you need a high quality image that records to a more robust codec than others in the market. I can see this camera being used as a crash cam or a high quality way to get shots that you wouldn't be able to fit a traditional camera in. At a price point of $995 for the standard version and $1295 for the 4K version, Blackmagic has continued their trend of bringing affordable quality to the masses.
