Even today Blackmagic Design's OG Micro cinema camera is stupendously powerful when kitted out right. With that in mind, I built my dream cinema camera rig that can run for nearly an entire shoot day.
This PINT SIZED camera in 2025 is still incredible and the more I shoot with it, the more I just love it and my job. For me thats what makes a good cinema camera, not the spec sheet.
@willvontagen over at XCLS designs has by far the best cage system for the Blackmagic micro cinema and micro studios cameras out there, so if you are in need of a base for your rig you can find them (non affiliate link) here: xlcsdesigns.com
