Keeping up with the Joneses

I'm not one for product blogs, but sometimes amazing things need attention lavished upon them; and Blackmagic's Pocket Cinema Camera [http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/blackmagicpocketcinemacamera/] is one of those amazing things. A 1080P HD cinema camera (it captures RAW Wide Dynamic range) with the form factor of a crappy...
