Blackmagic announce Cinema Camera Price Drop

For those of you out there who are Blackmagic fans (and let's face it who isn't) you'll be pleased to hear that along with stepping up shipping on their Pocket Cinema Camera Blackmagic have also announced a price drop on their original cinema camera.
 
As everybody is well aware, there was somewhat of a delay with the original Cinema Camera due to manufacturing issues relating to the contamination of the lens/sensor which no one could have predicted but understandably led to a lot of frustration. This combined with the large amount of hype surrounding Blackmagic's first camera meant there were some unhappy customers as a result, with many remaining on waiting lists for over a year before actually receiving their cameras.
 
With this in mind Blackmagic's recent decision to reduce the price of their original cinema camera from £1790.00 (ex vat) to £1325.00 (ex vat) is welcome news and makes a product which already offers great value for money even more attractive to those venturing into the world of large sensor camcorders. It also means anyone who's been saving hard now has some cash left over for all those accessories!
 

What's more is the 2.5K version is actually shipping which means for a lot of customers who have been patiently (and not so patiently) counting the days since that first NAB announcement back in 2012 the wait is finally over.
 
As if that wasn't enough good news Blackmagic have also announced that the Pocket Cinema Camera is now shipping in limited quantities and with the 4K version not far behind the only downside is making the difficult decision of which one to choose.
