    A ridiculously high quality video. I do not, nor will I ever own this camera, but this was very enjoyable to watch. Keep it up!

    So great to watch this... this was my first workhorse 'cinema camera' so I'm nostalgic for it. I researched the focal reducer and battery mod options available for it many years ago but decided to sell it to finance my next camera. In reality: when rigged up it weighed a tonne and it had so many quirks you were constantly juggling on set which added a lot of stress. Great that you're Australian - Blackmagic has contributed many film tech achievements we can be proud of

    I had the very first 2.5k magic booster sold. It didn’t work properly and I had to get parts sent to me by the guy to make it work. However now, I can’t imagine my camera without it!

    Wow man. What a great video. Did you really make that 3D animation? It's insanely good.

    Very cool! Have you tried using the clear filter instead of the IR cut filter, and doing some infrared cinematography? And did you shoot in prores or in RAW?

    I own a Black Magic Production Camera for a couple of years now and have been using it for many small productions. But what I still can't find is a cage, so I can safeley carry it around when using it handheld. I do have a full smallrig set-up. But it doesn't feel that safe when I have to take it off my shoulder. Anyone who knows where to find a cage for these, and which are, preferably, not too expensive? :D

    I love my BMCC 2.5k so much, I don't have the guts to mod it. Just in case.

    I bought the 4k production model years back and has a beast of images coming out from it which I'm still using to date. The problem is burns in the sensor after communicating with the company a new one was sent to me. Now I need to clean the camera sensor as it looks dirty, I contacted the Blackmagic Dubai branch and they refused saying I did not buy it from them. Now where do I take it for a cleanup? Thanks

    I've got the Black Magic Production Camera 4K the images from the centre under the right conditions are beautiful you come back years later and review the images and they are mind blowing something very special about the sensor.

    Great video! I had actually done these mods a few years ago, almost exactly. Such a great camera and I'm sad I sold it recently :(
