Andrew,


I like the Idea of a more cinema-camera square type body that you will potentially be able to accessorize better than the current DSLR type body.

But this design is based on the "Pocket" Cinema Camera 6K which had some Moire and aliasing issues, worse fixed pattern noise and Worst IR pollution than the current Cinema Camera 6K Full Frame camera does, I think is a bad idea unless this Nexus camera body will address those issues. Plus it's a S-35 and not a Full Frame sensor with the current trend on their website being that people are wanting an EF Mount instead of an L-Mount which will allow more lenses to be used.

I imagine this project is nice free market and R&D research for BMD.

Yep, Blackmagic gets the opportunity to see what works, what's wanted and what's needed by their potential customers.

I think BM has an amazing camera coming up for NAB that is going to blow away everybody, global shutter for sure as that is the new standard for anything this point forward.
