BlackMagic Design vient de rendre disponible le firmware 1.8 pour ses caméras raw « cinema », tous modèles confondus, Pocket, Cinema Camera et Production Camera.
A télécharger ici.
Malgré tout ce qu’on peut penser de ces caméras, aux gros capteurs, mais au workflow et à l’ergonomie difficiles, et ceci malgré un prix extrêmement bas… ce firmware corrige certains manques cruels pour chaque caméra.
On notera notamment :
- Production Camera : on peut enfin enregistrer en Raw en 4K… ouf !
- Cinema Camera : l’autofocus est dispo avec les optiques Canon EF compatibles
L’interface a évolué : espérons que les nombreux manques ont été comblés…
