Blackmagic’s 4K Pocket Cinema Camera Is Getting New Upgrades
The upcoming Firmware upgrade will allow for users to shoot anamorphic at 2.8K Central.

Blackmagic had us so busy showing off a bunch of great new products, and a host of new software features, that nobody really noticed a firmware update coming for the 4K Pocket Cinema Camera. And with it comes not only the ability to shoot anamorphic at almost 3K resolution, but it also supports for framing where the image gets cropped. While Blackmagic has yet to reveal the timing on the firmware upgrade, it’s a significant one that will make shooting for filmmakers more effective in the long term.

The BMPCC4k can already shoot in widescreen, but up to now, it had been limited to 1080p. The new upcoming update will more than double the resolution for anamorphic mode, giving shooters another great shooting option.
