Blackmagic RAW | The quality of raw and the speed of video

Blackmagic RAW is a ground-breaking format that all three of the above-mentioned cameras are equipped with. It is designed to capture and preserve the quality of the sensor data from each camera. Some file formats such as H.264 are highly compressed so adding noise and artifacts causes sensor details to be lost forever.

Blackmagic RAW eliminates this problem, ensuring you get stunning images with incredible detail and rich colour throughout the whole post-production pipeline. The technology also saves camera settings such as metadata so you can change ISO, white balance and exposure later in DaVinci Resolve. In addition to this, the files are smaller and quicker than most, making the editing responsiveness superior.

As shown with these three innovative cameras’, Blackmagic offer the tools creators need from all the way from capture to the final edit, enabling them to focus on what’s important, creating.
