So hopefully on a third party monitor, we can just use the forward/backward/pause/play buttons to move through the menus.Īdamroberts wrote:From the BMMCC product page:įront panel buttons to quickly change settings I have only seen demoes of it using the Video Assist, which uses a touch screen for input. So nothing special on that end.Īs yet BM have not stated how the menus will appear, and as none of the current BM cameras show the menus over HDMI/SDI, it is unclear but the assumption is that pressing the menu button will overlay the menu on the HDMI signal. On the other hand, it runs on Canon LP-E6 batteries common to DSLRs, and it mounts to anything with a standard 1/4" camera thread, with mount points on the top and bottom of the camera.Josh Kahane wrote:I'm looking forward to seeing some more on the Micro Cinema Camera next month, but have a query I can't resolve.īeyond setting up remote controls via the expansion port, is it only possible to change camera settings via the Blackmagic Video Assist monitor? Or can a third party monitor be connected to change settings?Īs the Video Assist is just a standard HDMI/SDI monitor with no proprietary connector it will work the same as any other monitor that accepts a progressive HDMI signal should work fine. If you want to mount the BMCC on a drone, you'll have to bring your own lenses, stabilizing gimbal, wireless video transmitter, external monitor, and you'll have to work out how to get your camera control signals through to the camera itself through the expansion port. A stabilized drone camera with a remotely controlled zoom lens on it? Scary stuff. S.Bus and PWM pins on the expansion port let you set up remote or wired camera controls for total flexibility so you can build a setup that allows you to control everything from exposure to focus and even zoom from a remote location.
And there's nothing on the market that's more expandable. Unlike its action camera competition, the BMCC has an active micro 4/3rds lens mount, so you've got access to a vast range of excellent glass, and even more if you use an adapter.
