In 2012 Blackmagic Design dropped a huge bomb when they announced the Blackmagic Cinema Camera &#8211; 2.5K resolution video for $3k. \u00a02011 was the big announcement of Final Cut Pro X. \u00a02010 showcased the Arri Alexa. \u00a0So, what&#8217;s going to be the big NAB announcement of 2013?<\/p>\n<p>At the SXSW conference in March of 2012 <a title=\"Digital Bolex Announcement\" href=\"http:\/\/www.1001noisycameras.com\/2012\/03\/sxsw-surprise-digital-bolex-2k-raw-dng-kodak-ccd-for-2500.html\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">the Digital Bolex camera was announced,<\/a> but at the time it was only a concept.

Fast forward to this year&#8217;s SXSW show and they were showing off a prototype of the cam. \u00a0As <a title=\"Digital Bolex NAB 2013\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/video-production-and-editing-trends-at-nab-show-2013\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">we mentioned in an earlier post<\/a>, Digital Bolex will be taking this model to the 2013 NAB show.

Even with the extended battery life, an\u00a0internal\u00a0battery may be a bit worrisome for some pro users that require longer shoot times.<\/p>\n<p>The D16 looks like an interesting choice for the independent filmmaker.
