All about Blackmagic’s new cameras–the PYXIS 6K box camera and URSA Cine 12K cinema camera. We cover the new announcements and give our thoughts about the feature set and who these cameras might be for. Also, Blackmagic released a new micro color panel that looks interesting, and Canon seems to be opening up the RF mount….sort of.

Reviews are out on the Sony Burano, and we dig into some of the surprising results. Also, we try to give a brief highlight on the Blackmagic NAB announcements, but end up talking about it for much longer than expected (and don’t worry, there’s more coming from us). Also, Sigma releases a new lens, and Lucas thinks Daniel should fully embrace a new photo backup workflow.
