    Looking very good – I couldn’t help thinking that they just put DSLR’s on life support…

    By the way, does anyone know the “official” crop factor of this camera?

    No the DSLR fraternity will continue with their “shallow DOF in every shot” filming. It’s interesting that there’s already been a couple of comments about the footage looking more video than film, these were presumably from people who haven’t got a clue what film actually looks like.

    Yes if it’s all in focus it must be video – if one side of an eyeball is soft THAT’S FILM!!!

    [Lance Bachelder] “… does anyone know the “official” crop factor of this camera?”

    I fairly certain the Pocket Cinema Camera’s crop factor is 3 (2.89 in change) relative to full-frame 135.

    Yeah – Citizen Kane and The Shining would “look like video” to this crowd 🙂
