Cutting edge Digital Cameras with a vintage twist seem to be a strong theme right now, the Digital Bolex and Bellami hd 1 cameras are both great examples of a trend back to vintage pistol grip style shooters. If you happen to own a Blackmagic Pocket Camera and want to give it a vintage twist you should probably check out the Retroflex mod rig from Redrock Micro.
This simple rig blends sophisticated ’60s retro style with the modern flexibility of digital filmmaking. The Retroflex comes with 3 modules: the pistol grip with run/stop button, viewfinder, and protective cage. Currently the Retroflex is exclusively for the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, however they do have plans to fashion the rig to fit other pocket cameras as well. The price is set at $495 and will begin shipping in about 2 months. Here are a few features:
- Retro styling and design.
- Fantastic ergonomics for street or verite style shooting.
- The cage protects the camera and adds mounting and cold shoe options.
- Handgrip with run/stop trigger (removable).
- wireLock accessory to secure cables (not included).
- Removable viewfinder aids in outdoor screen visibility.
