Our camera has been modified with a camera cage to better meet the needs of our filmmaking students, but we’ll get to that later.

The camera is housed in a yellow Pelican case.

Inside the case, you’ll find the Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, three batteries and a battery charger. These are the things that come standard with the case.

You may add up to four a-la-carte lenses, a field monitor, HDMI jumper cable, a diffusion filter, a variable ND filter, a v-mount battery and a tripod.

The camera kit must always be returned to us in this manner. Items should be in their respective place at the time of your return.

Let’s first focus on the camera body.

You can see, the rig is laying screen side down in this compartment.

Next, is the Atomos Shinobi monitor.

Notice how the monitor is top down, with the cold shoe mount facing up.

Refer to the laminated card inside the case to know where each item goes.

Now that you know what comes with the camera kit, we must remind you – to avoid suspension, all items must be returned to us in the same condition and location that you received it.

We recommend that you take a photo of how each item is packed before you use them.

Now, let’s talk more about the physical nature of the camera.

The camera has been modified with a camera cage so students may attach a field monitor to the camera, to better protect it, and to offer a top handle for easier handling. The cage may never be removed from the camera.
