- anilgulecha 11y agoI think the parent meant something like the Canon 5Dm2/3 with magic lantern can provide RAW Full HD in a ~2-3000$ package, with a great range of glass and accessories. These provide footage pro-filmmakers did not have access a decade ago. The higher resolution thus evolutionary
- bitL 11y agoThere is a significant difference between recording RAW FHD and recording RAW DCI 4K/UHD - the latter requires over 1GB/s sustained recording device which is a major engineering challenge. Only nowadays with PCIe based SSDs we finally have technology for it (baring multiple RAID SSDs used in production cameras before PCIe SSDs). Technologically it is indeed revolutionary.

- dharma1 11y agoah, should have read them through :) Blackmagic is awesome, one of the few camera companies pushing the boundaries within price constraints. And I love watching interviews with the owner, Grant, he is super hands on, a model CEO. And they have regular firmware updates across all their cameras! I think they use FPGA's on their cameras in a way that allows them to share large parts of the firmware?
