they said the new 12K camera can shoot any resolution using full sensor mode, so hopefully the 17K can do it too. or you could shoot 17K and then reduce resolution in post - which would allow you to play with things like noise reduction, sharpening etc. of course you would probably need a monstrous PC but i am guessing this camera will cost about $30,000 so if you can afford it you can also afford a new PC.

I agree about the storage issues though, especially if this is meant to bring that IMAX-level capability to mid and low budget productions that won't have access to big post houses with petabytes of dedicated storage. Not necessarily insurmountable challenges if they're willing to maintain a proxy workflow until the final render, but will still definitely be something producers should think about when budgeting.

I'm a big fan of this 17K sensor.

If BMD releases their own super-resolution projector capable of displaying 12K+ content, we might see some really amazing visuals in films and it might be a giant leap in digital filmmaking and theatrical releases. Sure, we have Arri, but even a film shot on Arri won't give us the resolution IMAX film is known for. This reminds me of when RED made their first camera and how they changed the filmmaking landscape back then.

Speedboosters only give a wider fov and a little more light, nothing else. The sensor and the lens characteristics remain unchanged. So after the speedbooster, there will be no change in depth whatsoever when compared to without speedbooster. Nor will the noise improve. It's an optical element, so think of it as just an extra piece of glass at the end of the lens. If it really had any impact on the sensor, every aps-c lens would add this element as their rear component to turn the camera full frame. A physically larger lens will always have more depth and better noise. It's basically like a wide angle converter.

This is so exciting and I really admire BMD's efforts to democratize high-quality filmmaking to those with less access to resources.

Not a deal breaker because the 17k is clearly not meant to be a run and gun or one-person crew type of camera, and a fuller production will probably have some serious matte boxes and high end 4x5.65 / 6x6 ND filters. But nonetheless I think folks out there might wanna know.

The RGBW sensor design requires larger than usual photosite counts to produce the final color fidelity. The original ursa mini 12k resolves just under 4k, like wise the 17k will probably resolve around 6k - 8k. Since they're using a 6x6 block of photosites to derive the final color information. This is good though, in a sense it's like binning, you're getting an equivalent output of much larger photosites.

I just meant from the perspective of data management and filming a closeup of someone’s face at 17K. Just need to consider a few things first before throwing it in the mix :) Didn’t mean it as a negative - different tools for different things.

17K 65mm sensor camera would be useful also in IMAX Stereo 3D and other immersive environments with large wall-sized screens (flat or surrounding or dome or in stereo/VR), so that pixels wouldn't be noticeable to the eye - kind of lifelike film experience. I was thinking about this kind of resolution with wide dynamic range for many years. Love the progressor-pioneer attitude of Blackmagic Design! Also waiting for serious IBIS, PDAF and fully rotating flip-screens in all Blackmagic cameras in the future.

I'm really excited about this camera (and sensor) shooting stills with 645 Medium format opens so many more options in delivery. In terms of sensors, (and stills cameras miss-lead in the same way) we need to pay closer attention to comparisons. 50.8mm x 23.3mm is Panavision. iMax would need roughly, a 60mm x 85mm size sensor, something like the Sphere's Big Sky camera 18,024 x 17,592 resolution, 77.5mm x 75.6mm sensor. Having gotten used to a 645 crop digital medium format though, I think this is going to be an exceptional camera and a better overall package than iMax in a lot of ways.

it's not really about the Ks here but the sensor SIZE and lens mount. i believe the dude when he says it's the best picture Black Magic ever produced because it's the biggest sensor and the fanciest mount they ever used, which in turn means the fanciest lenses. Bigger sensor means more photons which ultimately means more detail regardless of pixel count. Even though small pixels have higher noise because the noise is so fine and resolution so high you can apply a lot of noise reduction and still have good detail left. Basically if you have the processing power and the storage capacity then there is no reason not to go up in resolution which is why they did it - because they could.

I'm a Sony guy and have next to no BMD experience (other than their ATEM mixers and the OG Pocket Cinema Camera). Th 12K CINE is incredibly interesting to me HOWEVER I truly am unnerved by the multiple reports of "unrepairable" bricked BMD cameras! I see comments like that SO often (and calls for - at least - better warranty offerings from BMD) that I don't really see myself dropping 10K+ on a camera of theirs yet... I HOPE that will change.

So the 17K 140MP sensor is just a bit wider than the new 12K (80MP) sensor? Same height, same pixels etc.... does this also mean we can predict the possible framerates for the eventual 17K camera? Or is it like a 3x and a 2x sensoe stich like Arri had for their 65mm sensor?

High end 35mm stills cameras have had 61 megapixels for years, which is 10K equivalent and no one gets upset by that. If I was a big time filmmaker shooting the next Oppenheimer or Lawrence of Arabia or Star Wars, I'd want to shoot in full 17K so that it could be exhibited at full resolution in true Imax. PS the actual resolution of true 70mm Imax film is wildly overstated, in part due to The Dark Knight's DP misunderstanding of the oversampling process--true Imax film is closer to 9 or 10k resolution.

3:40 haha Hey it’s my buddy Will Helmuth in the bg I’ve AC’d for him a few times lol

anyone know of a channel that's putting content from NAB up regularly, like maybe a bunch of live clips and quick looks at the booths? Been looking for updates today just to pass the time and I don't know, maybe NAB is a quiet one this year outside of the black magic announcements.

Global Shutter? eVND Sony FX6 style? 16 bit RAW? Gyro stabilization? Wireless viewfinder app? By the way, The Sphere camera is 18K in a square aspect. Not sure if 3:2 or 1:1. Massive stuff.

I wish blackmagic put different video codecs in their more high end cameras such as the 12k's and the new Pyxis 6k and I guess also the new 17k.

I wish sensors would push more towards low light sensitivity than resolution. Having the ability to shoot in dim conditions at F5 or above would be much more useful to me than 17k resolution

They are, they're not using the 17k photosites for resolution, they're using it for color uniformity. The Ursa mini 12k has a resolving power of 4k. Because the RGBW sensor design derives color fidelity across a 6x6 block of RGB filtered and monochromatic photosites.

The original 12K Ursa was kind of ignored because almost nobody shoots at this resolution - it also excelled at 4K or 6K, but Blackmagic didn't really advertise that. Hope the new camera doesn't follow this path.

The ursa 12k is not 12k. It's 4k. It can't resolve beyond 4k as it's RGBW design requires sampling across a 6x6 block of photosites to derive color. Which is a smart design as it offers color uniformity for that final resolving power. We need to remove the notion that the photosite count is a comparable measure against bayer sensors, it's a completely different sensor design.

1:10 Ugh fake B.S marketing. IMAX isn't just about resolution. It's a massive format a little over 2.5 times the size of 65mm cameras that allows for the use of large format glass for normal shots....example 28mm is often cited as the most used lens in cinema history and you can use a 80mm for this FOV when shooting IMAX(thats what Nolan uses a lot). You can't replicate the IMAX look with just pumping up resolution just like a 5.8k micro 4/3 GH6 cannot replicate the same look as a 4.5k ARRI LF. Both cameras use completely different glass because of the sensor size. A normal shot lens on 4/3 would be a 14mm lens. Also he compared this camera to the Big Sky camera in Vegas which is again is a joke. That camera's sensor is over 4 times the size of a 65mm sensor.

If the Cine 12K is designed for perfekt 4K, then the 17K ist for perfect 5,6K, which is impressive & more effectively than the Alexa 65, but all in 2.20.1 - NOTHING IMAX here thank you

Pocket 40k please

keep saying 17K 17K 17K, the whole main glory is the 65MM sensor format!!

my question is, what lens?

17k for under 20 grand is not bad. Seriously. The negatives are almost all their cameras are locked to one software so they're pretty useless for 99% of client work unless your doing all the post, and even then, people want prores or raw or h.264/5. Until they get other formats on these cameras they will be under utilized. Unless all NLE's can start reading them.

The point I wanted was, even if the same film stock is used, the frame size and orientation is totally different. Leading to the names IMAX (large frame, horizontal film run) and Panavision (cropped frame, vertical film run) and in the case of stills Medium Format (large frame, horizontal film run) and 645 Reporter (cropped frame, vertical film run) If Panavision and 645 Reported were both shot on an IMAX camera the film would need a mask to crop out the unused portion of the frame. Which I see in the digital realm as the equivalent of a cropped sensor

Mention imax equivalent then swerve when asked to justify. IMAX has a bigger frame size

Impressive. I do wish the PIXYS cam had the 16 stop sensor of the Cine 12K, though.

Interesting but important step into the LF world for BMD. Sony surely will be out with their LF line soon enough. BMD getting in there first and with a unique IMAX slant to it gets them a head start. The rep is right in that BMD needs to get rapid adoption before Sony steps in. Zooming out, the main threat to all of them however is the current wave of synthetic software. IMO the camera industry across all brands needs to get Gen Z and Gen Alpha in on making images. They also need Apple to hold the fort on camera based imagery being a thing. Otherwise the likes of OpenAI, Microsoft, NVIDIA will eat them for lunch with their vastly larger market cap. The software route is the path of least resistance and because it’s software based and these companies have little regard for ethics, it’s just the much cheaper option. BMD is making the right moves with the BM phone app. BMPCC needs a refresh and possibly even a loss leader on the entry model in the line to get Gen Z&A involved with filmmaking. The camera companies need to move on from fighting amongst themselves to seeing that the bigger “enemy” is outside of them and right at their doorstep

Who needs 17K? Most features when projected are bumped down to 2K, (4K in some theaters). Even for effects work, I would think 6, 8 or 12K would suffice.

It absolutely is replaceable if the capture device is beyond it, and thus can emulate it.

Productions that can afford to get "the best prime lenses that exist" can afford a camera that isn't a Blackmagic. I appreciate they're aiming high, but the sort of productions they're talking about (VFX heavy), are getting a Venice or a DXL2. They're the established, proven brands in that realm.

The number of Ks is not for resolution, it's to achieve color uniformity. As they sample 6x6 RGBW photosites to derive color fidelity. Therefore it's not relatively comparable to the same number of photosites on a bayer sensor.

BRAW is 12 bit and I get it, but until there's a 16 bit offering, I'm not investing in it.

@@davida5296 The original arri alexa sensor does not output 16-bit log, it uses a 16-bit ADC, to output at a lower bit depth, same goes for black magic and many other companies. There is not a perceptual difference between 12-bit and 16-bit. 16-bit is only needed to handle quantisation noise introduced for cameras with higher dynamic range. In other words, black magic is working with industry standards here, because if the sensor were say below 14 stops of dynamic range, a 16-bit ADC would not be required.

I would never use a BM camera on a professional shoot again after 3 URSA mini 4.6ks failed on me during a shoot. When I say failed, I mean dead pixels in every single camera.

The number of Ks on an RGBW sensor is not comparable to a bayer sensor as sampling for color takes place across 6x6 grid of pixels, rather than 2x2 grid of pixels with conventional bayer sensors. So for this sensor design you simply need more photosites to derive the same equivalent resolution of a bayer sensor. Why would they do this? Color uniformity. That's why.
