After we already looked at the Blackmagic Cinema Camera MFT last Sunday, Clayton Burkhart prepared well and had an in depth Q & A session with Soren Phillips from Blackmagic Design regarding their new Cinema Camera.

This is not a soft marketing video like many other Blackmagic interviews out there, this is 25 minutes of very informative tech and in-depth talk on some of the toughest questions Clayton could come up with. Unfortunately we couldn’t discuss all we intended to as some things were a little too sensitive there, but nevertheless Soren Phillips (from BMC camera development) had some really great answers on most of our questions.

If you’re in the business of getting a Blackmagic Cinema Camera (pre-order MFT here) then this talk will also give you some very useful insights on how to best use the camera and its limitations.

It seems like Blackmagic Design really tries hard to listen to their customers. We’re now looking very much forward to the release and all we’ll see produced with this camera.
