Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 6K with EF Lens Mount

Product Information

The whole point to this daylight test was to see how the camera handled skin tones. We were shooting these scenes later in the afternoon, so Iwas at ISO1000 or 1250, so it was at the lower ISO for this camera. Iunderstand this gives more in dynamic range, so you have alittle bit more highlight-headroom there. When Ilook at those shots now, Iam really impressed at how good the dynamic range is. It is great to see all of that detail Iwas seeing was actually captured in thoseshots.” The BMPCC 6K G2 has a Canon EF mount, which makes it compatible with a vast array of lenses between Canon’s native glass and glass connected with adapters.
But this mount also highlights one of the system’s limitations compared to more technologically advanced hybrid cameras. Separately, if you’re looking for a camera with autofocus, you’d be better off with something like the Panasonic S5 II or S5 IIX, the Fujifilm X-H2, or X-H2S. The BMPCC is an extremely versatile camera with incredible picture quality. What you get out of the camera is the raw ingredients that when cooked in Davinci Resolve (full studio license included) produces amazing imagery. The 6K BRAW file format is what I shoot almost everything in as it captures the best resolution and picture that this camera can produce. The file sizes, although large, when you realise what it's captured (i.e. RAW at 6K) is quite impressive. I capture to the Samsung T5 2Tb SSD which has no problem. As a test I left it recording for 3 hours and that captured approx 600Gb. There is no hot or cold shoe built into the camera, which is a bit unfortunate as that’s a common rigging point for mics and external monitors (although the rear LCD is wonderfully large and mitigates the need for an external monitor in many cases).

La 6K permet facilement de proposer deux valeurs de plans (cadrages) avec assez de différences pour que ca soit intéressant et donc simuler un "zoom". Other notable design features include a front-facing tally lamp to indicate in-progress recording, and tripod mounting points on the bottom (two here) and top, which can also be used for attaching accessories.The ND filters in the 6K Pro are motorized, although not variable. That’s not uncommon, and the ND filters in the Sony FX series of cameras function similarly. But the fact they exist is really nice, as the mechanized ND filter makes on-the-fly adjustments easy and having the filter in the body means you can adjust incoming light for any lens mounted to the camera. The BMPCC 6K G2 does record internal gyroscope data that the Resolve editing suite can use for post-processing stabilization, but that comes with a caveat. Tolle Kamera, in die man sich als Neueinsteiger in dieses Segment aber sorgfältig einarbeiten muss.Ist keine run and gun-Kamera, aber durchaus auch für Reisevideos geeignet. One of the headliner features here is the three built-in ND filters. Two buttons on the rear of the camera cycle between filters that offer 2, 4, and 6 stops of filtering (or none at all). If you're on a chaotic outdoor set, being able to adjust filters with a press of a button can be a lifesaver. Taking the footage into Davinci Resolve gives you so much flexibility with regards to changing white balance, exposure, highlight recovery and of course colour grading. For delivery onto HD, which is still by far the most common delivery format I work with, the 6K image gives so many options for post production in terms of re-framing shots. This makes this an ideal camera for a single camera shoot where you can punch in to close ups in post without losing resolution. The new features of Davinci Resolve studio also mean that if you do zoom in, it can follow the subject using AI technology. The two products you get make for a formidable camera system.

There’s a huge, rubber-clad grip for your right hand and a large nub for your right thumb to rest against, so it’s not hard to get a good firm grip on the camera. When you do, you’ll find the majority of the physical controls easily to hand, including the all-important video stop/start button and dedicated controls for high frame-rate, autofocus and auto-aperture adjustment.Recording 4K or lower in ProRes gives edit-ready files that are easier to handle, and usually save on space compared to Raw. But with a choice of different compression levels, some of the more robust 10-bit ProRes files are actually bigger than some of the 12-bit B-Raw files.
