The original Blackmagic Pocket Cinema was about $500 on sale, but only shot in 1080p. The new generation is about $1300. And then you have to buy lenses :)

So, overall it's not bad value. It's not going to replace pro gear any time soon, but it's great that it can do stuff like this now.



Canon EOS M can be bought for around $100 used and shoot 1440p raw with Magic Lantern. Also it can use cheap old 16mm film lenses with crop mode.
