Blackmagic Cinema Camera

The Blackmagic Cinema Camera (often simply the Cinema Camera or BMCC) is a digital movie camera developed and manufactured by Blackmagic Design and released on September 4, 2012. It is part of the Cinema Camera family of digital movie cameras and shoots 2.5K video in raw, Apple ProRes, CinemaDNG and Avid DNxHD formats.
History.
At the NAB Show in April 2012, Blackmagic Design announced and demonstrated the Cinema Camera and slated for its release on July with an initial price of US$2,995. However, in August, the release date was delayed for "final stages of Thunderbolt certification and internal testing". A passive Micro Four Thirds model was then announced at IBC in September for release in December, along with a collaboration with Arri for a set of kits exclusively for the camera.
Alongside the announcement of the Pocket Cinema Camera and Production Camera 4K at NAB in April 2013, the price was dropped from its initial value to US$1,995 on August. It was then given an Arri PL model, as well as the Production Camera 4K, on September 2014. On October, a firmware update allowed the cameras to format solid-state drives within the camera. In March 2015, another update added lossless raw capability.
At the NAB Show in April 2018, Blackmagic Design announced and demonstrated the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K at a price of $1,295 USD. The first in the Pocket Cinema Camera line with the ability to shoot 4K video, this model included a 4/3 image sensor and mount. 
In August 2019, Blackmagic Design released the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6k with a Super 35 camera sensor and EF mount for $2,495 USD.

It can record raw, CinemaDNG, Apple ProRes and Avid DNxHD onto 2.5K and 1080p resolutions, as well as lossless 2.5K raw, in 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97 and 30 fps.
Software.
The device runs on a proprietary software called Camera Utility, which mainly powers the interface and system. However, unlike most systems which update through firmware over the air, updates to the software must be done on a computer through USB and are obtained through Blackmagic's Support Center. Files shot through the camera can be viewed individually and metadata, such as shot, scene and take numbers, can be assigned to each one. The SSD can also be internally formatted, instead of manually removing it and formatting on another platform, into exFAT and HFS+.
