‘Digital Bolex’ project shoots video on RAW, seeks Kickstarter funding

Charlie Sorrel for Cult of Mac:

However, while you can get a RAW-shooting stills camera for under $500, a RAW-capable video camera is professional only, running to tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. Until now. Joe Rubinstein will sell you a Digital Bolex for just $2,500. In the movie world, that’s like finding a Nikon D4 in your cereal box.

This is an ambitious project, and they’ve already reached their first Kickstarter goal of $100,000. Looks like it’s officially sanctioned by Bolex, if I’m reading the Kickstarter info right, because Rubinstein mentions that their “current agreement with Bolex states that we may only ship cameras within the United States.”
