If you are capturing using the full sensor, then the still image will be 4096 x 2160, regardless of whether the video is downsampled. in windowed 1080 mode, stills will be captured at 1920 x 1080. If you are capturing in a cropped sensor or windowed setting, then the resolution will be the same as that particular setting. The size of the frame depends on the capture mode. Stills are recorded as an Uncompressed DNG frame, regardless of whether you are recording ProRes or RAW. What stills resolution is the camera capable of?įull resolution is 4096 x 2160 = 8.8 megapixels. Time-lapse works in both ProRes and CinemaDNG RAW. When shooting in HD windowed mode, frame rates of 61-120 can be used.ĭoes this camera have time-lapse mode in RAW format? Maximum frame rate is 60 fps when shooting 4K DCI, Ultra HD or 1080 downscaled from the full sensor.

There is currently no anamorphic mode support. The camera will work with all MFT lenses that conform to the MFT mount standard. The camera will automatically switch to the high gain mode at 1250 ISO.Ĭan I use Four Thirds or Micro Four Thirds (MFT) lenses interchangeably?įour Thirds lenses have a different mount, therefore you will need to use an adaptor.ĭo mirrorless lenses with an MFT mount work with this camera, or just cinematic lenses? When does the ISO switch to the high gain mode? Our tests have found that ISO 1600 gives a very nice, filmic look. A greater degree of control is afforded by the ability to change the ISO setting in 1/3 stop increments. This provides two native settings which keep the signal to noise ratio the same, allowing you to shoot remarkably clean images in low light conditions.

The camera has two analog circuits immediately after each pixel before the gain amp, one dedicated to 400 ISO, the other to 3200 ISO.

The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K features two ‘native’ ISO settings to allow for greater image quality and better performance in lower ambient light.
