  • The Z Cam E2C gives you 10bit 4K DCI video (on a good 'ol sd card), even ProRes and RAW (on a cheap ssd), for $799 (you do need to pimp it up a bit). And you can liveview with an Android or IOS app. And it is m43 with an MFT mount, which you can speedboost too for EF lenses.

    So, maybe $499 for apefos' uses is the max this weird camera should be.

  • This is great for live videos, streaming from diferent public places. Also great to share photos just after click.

  • actually she says $500 in the cinema5d interview. And like everything else in the world, in a year, it'll be $300, just like the Yi m43.

  • @eatstoomuchjam

    Yes, they aim for smartphone shooters who want large lens and better sensor added to their existing experience, not pro guys.

  • Cool - so you could get a Black Magic Pocket 4K (pseudo-raw, prores), used GH5 (excellent 10-bit h.264 with or without all-i option), or A7 Mark II (full frame with decent 4k video and you can use just about any vintage lens ever made) for about the same price (or just a little more) and have a generally excellent camera...

    Or you could get this weird camera with a moderate codec, mismatched sensor size/lens mount, and weird Android operating system with a non-tilty screen.

    Cool.

  • I think they aim around $899-999.

  • Sure - if they sell this one for $200, it's pretty neat. If it's $500 or more, it becomes somewhat incomprehensible. :)

  • @eatstoomuchjam....well look what happened to the E1. It's certainly worth $200 now. And I would imagine it would depend on a good app running on the device.

  • Or to the Z-Cam E1. Unless the camera is really cheap, I really can't figure out who their target market is with it...

  • @kurth

    It is not BMpocket, as it must use something like Ambarella as intermediate. Very similar to Yi 4K.

  • She said the battery is interchangeable. Put the cheap canon 10-18mm and this might be interesting. If there's a competent android app, this could be interesting. A cheap(er) BMpocket perhaps.

  • I don't think so. Last time I used one, Cinema 4k (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.frozenvolcano.android.cinema4k&hl=en) was one of the best and it couldn't do a raw video stream.

  • Are there android apps that allow for raw recording?
