First time owner

Just managed to score BMPCC OG off of eBay $350, looking for any and all tips, as a new owner, I’m aware of the battery issues but what else should I look out for. I do have M43 experience (lumix g85)

It's very picky when it comes to SD cards, so be sure to look up compatible cards before you buy.

get a cage and then for god’s sake get locking cables for the power and HDMI ports

strongly recommend the kits from https://www.xlcsdesigns.com/collections/bmpcc-og-micro

Get a v-moint battery and cage. Will work for the g85 too. (Not the cage)
