Enter yet another camera in the digital Cinematography space. On the face of it seems to lack Cinematographic ergonomics. Also the sensor is smaller than 35mm motion picture format.

Blackmagic Cinema Camera eliminates this problem as it captures a super wide dynamic range of 13 stops into 12-bit DNG files, so your images look truly cinematic. This preserves detail in both shadows and highlights, and even handles indoor shots while keeping the details of any images captured through windows. This means you keep all sensor data so you can make creative decisions during DaVinci Resolve color grading!
