And the SSD mount, to hold your SSD drive, will cost another $20. Prices of cages vary, but you can get into one for as low as $80. However, that SSD can't just dangle from the camera itself, which means you'll want to get a camera cage to mount it, as well as an SSD mount to attach your SSD to the cage itself. The Samsung T5 500 GB SSD is very popular with BMPCC shooters, as it can connect to the camera via USB-C, and record 4K directly. The beauty of the BMPCC4K is that it can record with a variety of media, including a CFast card ( $400 for 256GB), Higher quality SD cards, and my personal favorite, an SSD drive. Or, you can pick up a Metabones Speedbooster for around $700 and use those EF mount lenses. Whether you're a previous Pocket camera users, or even a Panasonic GH user looking to take the next step, you will likely already have the micro 4/3s lenses, so you can save there.īut if you're getting into the BMPCC4K for the very first time, a basic Lumix 12-35mm kit lens is going to set you back about $1000. Some of those extras you can save on if you have them already on hand.

That's because you have to add a few things like media cards, extra batteries, a lens, and maybe even a cage.

Now, granted, the BMPCC4K isn't going to set you back $60,000 or more, but it will likely still cost you twice as much as the $1295 price tag.
