Broadcast Asia 2013: Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera update - “You’ll see them in July for sure”

By technical editor Matt Allard:

We had a chance to speak to Richard Lim of Blackmagic Design at the Broadcast Asia in Singapore this week. Like many others we wanted to know just how likely it is that the company will be delivering its new models in July. Watch the video see what he had to say.

As Richard mentions in the video the current sample footage shot by DP John Brawley on pre-production Pocket Cinema cameras is done in Prores. Hopefully the compressed RAW will be even better.
