Handling Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera
The first impression is very positive. The camera is to be compact without "fitzelig". All controls are easily accessible and can be served well with large hands. The housing is beautifully decorated and has a stable and high quality. Important functions such as focusing and exposure can be made while recording. Both for the automatic focus and exposure is in each case a separate button available. Additionally it can be adjusted using the arrow keys, the exposure value to compensate for example, backlit situations. Even in the cold winter of our walk the camera was ready quickly after pressing the power button and the battery did not show any weaknesses.Menus Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera
The menu structure is clear and does away with unnecessary frills. The four main areas "Camera Settings", "Audio Settings", "Record Setting" and "Display settings" are grouped logically and each parameter can be seen at a glance and change accordingly.Recording formats Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera
A special feature of the Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera is the ability to record in RAW format, which means the video uncompressed lands on the memory card - great when the material needs to be reworked. Is employed with "CinemaDNG" an open format that was initiated by Adobe in 2009. Accordingly, it is endorsed not only by the software Blackmagic Design but increasingly by other manufacturers.The individual frames of the video material are thus saved as an image sequence in a directory. The recorded audio signal ends up as a WAV file in the same directory. The individual images have the file extension "DNG" on what leads to the conclusion that these can be edited in photo editing software such as Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop. By the uncompressed format you need memory card with enough capacity. The 64 GB SD card used by us was full after just half an hour of your walk - it just short scenes were each added. Who would not want excessive rework his recordings can be filled up with ProRes 422 (HQ) resort to another format that is much easier to use and is also supported for example by Final Cut Pro X. This also fits much more video on a memory card.

We have pursued our conjecture and have one of our RAW images in Adobe Lightroom read. This software enables entire photo sequences with the same settings edit - so ideal for our image sequence. First, however, the image quality: This white absolutely convincing. Fine details without disturbing image noise were also in slow fading light of the winter afternoon possible - ideal requirements for further processing.
Were adjusted contrast and brightness of individual image areas, structures were highlighted. In addition, we have applied a simple color grading, not desaturated image-related parts and emphasizes the green on a tree stump something. With the Export function allows the processed image sequence, print them out, for example as JPEG or TIFF files and continue editing in any software that can handle image sequences.
We have deliberately avoided in our short test to the study of the manual and the camera easy to transport in a small winter walk - in your pocket, because so little is the unit of the Australian design company. In fact, the lens determines the size of the camera. It can be used Micro Four Thirds lenses and adapters for Super 16 mm lenses depending on the desired application. For our tests we used a Panasonic H-HS12035 (Lumix 12-35mm, F2.8).
