I particularly like Tilta’s approach with their screws-secured USB-C cable. Important is that some of the cage manufacturers already considered the SSD mounting option and offer solutions for that. This is not a comprehensive list, as there are probably even more options by now. Now, there are a lot of options when it comes to rigging the BMPCC 4K. Other cage manufacturers introduced their versions shortly after. One question arose: “How to conveniently and securely attach SSDs to the camera?”īy the time the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k has started shipping, there have already been a few cages available. Please note that we are comparing prices-per-GB here. Last but not least, SSDs are fast enough and they are significantly cheaper than CFast 2.0 memory cards. CFast 2.0 cards are fast enough for whatever the BMPCC 4K sends their way, but they are quite expensive.

SD cards are relatively cheap, but their write speed does not allow for highest quality (Cinema DNG RAW 270MBps) recording. The new Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k can record to either SD cards, CFast 2.0 cards or SSDs. Many filmmakers were really thrilled when this feature was first announced, because SSDs are a great speed-size-price package. The one feature of the new BMPCC 4K that is relevant for this article right now, is the ability to record to an external SSD via USB-C port. For more information about the BMPCC 4K, you can check out the comprehensive review that my colleague Nino did in October. The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k has already been on the market for a couple of months now. Depending on the pledge you choose, the bundle will come with a USB-C cable, s tandard 1/4″-20 threaded mount, standard Shoe Mount, 15mm Rail or even a 500GB SSD. I’ll look into it.The DriveMount is a new Kickstarter project – an aluminum case, which allows you to attach a standard 2.5″ SSD to a 1/4″-20 screw hole (like the one on top of the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K). In case, if you have any queries or doubts do let me know in the comment section. Hope you enjoyed the article! Simply, follow the stated steps to update the latest Firmware in your Samsung SSDs.
