A clear explanation of the difference the Blackmagic Cinema Camera is going to make by making the jump to 12-bit depth.
Which becomes quite clear with math:
The bit-depth simply refers to the different combinations of ones and zeros that is possible (with color images having three channels of bit-depth). The more bits and values possible, the better the final quality will be.
8-bit — 256 different values
10-bit — 1024 different values
12-bit — 4096 different values
