So if you are the proud owner of one, you can continue to use your existing lenses. The MFT mount has been specially designed for smaller camera bodies and shorter support dimensions. This means you can use high-quality lenses that are much smaller. The MFT mount is extremely flexible and compatible with different lens adapters. Adapters are available for PL, C, EF and many other lenses. So you can use lenses from manufacturers such as Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Leica and even Panavision!

n terms of recording with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, you have a choice of three storage media. Video material can be recorded on normal SD cards or faster UHS-II and CFast 2.0 cards. Regular SD cards are inexpensive and easily record video in high definition. More powerful UHS-II cards are suitable for recording Ultra HD in ProRes at up to 60 fps or RAW at up to 30 fps. CFast cards record 12-bit RAW at all supported frame rates. External SSD or flash storage devices that can be connected via the camera's USB-C expansion port are also suitable for longer recording times. And best of all: you are not tied to any particular manufacturer! The files are compatible with all professional post-production programmes. You can even connect your storage medium to your computer and edit directly from the medium. This is possible with the included DaVinci Resolve Studio software.

The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K has an innovative USB-C expansion port for fast transfer speeds. USB-C is fast, flexible and even supplies power. For good reason, this interface is now the standard for all modern computers and electronic devices. The massive bandwidth of USB-C enables the connection of external accessories such as flash drives and SSDs for maximum recording times. This is noticeable when, for example, you are recording in high-quality lossless 12-bit RAW or even 4K with high frame rates of 60 fps. Another plus: once filming is complete, you can edit straight away on the same storage medium and start post-production.
