BLACKMAGIC POCKET CINEMA CAMERA

Yeah Black Magic did say they were "shipping"
Problem is if they are, to whom are they going and how many?
Since there isn't one person on this planet that has announced receiving one.

So, I have my doubts as to shipping.

B&H told me today they have not received them yet to begin shipping.

Sounds about right.
I wish BMC would just tell the truth.

(well so does a few thousand other people as well)

Yeah I am really excited about the camera, but it looks like we are going to have to be patient a while longer if B&H still hasn't gotten their's yet.

I was kinda excited about the 4K but with their last two camera delivery issues I'm not sure anymore. They sure spend a lot of money on marketing and shows, make a lot of promises ... most companies would not be forgiven this many times.

Most companies aren't selling amazing cameras for 1/10th of the cost. I think it is worth the wait in the end.

It is true, when you offer products like that, they can get away with it. This guy certainly didn't cancel any orders :-)

Great footage indeed. Can't wait to get the pocket camera and it is worth the wait, not doubt. Just wish they would communicate more.
It's like my first marriage. Or was it the second. anyway, we need more communication.
