Toot

The Blackmagic Immersive video camera they previewed at WWDC has been fully announced ($30k, ships end of 25Q1). https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/uk/media/release/20241217-01

What really intrigues me about it is when/if it will show up for rental. I have a few tentative ideas in this space I'd love to explore but I don't think would justify the cost of owning one.

Looks like Lensrentals rents a vaguely similar, traditional Blackmagic camera kit for around $1,000/week...which would make experimentation much more accessible.

@_Davidsmith FWIW, that camera at Lensrentals retails (body only) for ~ $4k USD, so maybe not a representative comparison.

But I too am keen to see it available for rent here in AUS, I think renting will be the primary way these get used.

@_Davidsmith should we expect the Underscore Staycation Immersive video series?

So you can believe you are staying at home while actually staying at home?
