I have genuinely relaxed on watching camera or gear rundown reviews/specs because it's evident from KZfaqrs like you that it really doesn't matter what you have. No camera can make you talented, talent makes you talented.

You're a future classic, my man.

The Pyxis 6K came out, exactly what people have been asking for years and I STILL see people complaining. I am so exhausted with camera discourse...

love the idea of it being a future classic, I can totally see that happening

Two lamps. One desk lamp. One floor lamp.

Imma curl up with a pint of ice cream and watch this.

Honestly 6KFF would have been an instant buy for me if it had the built in NDs like the BMPCC6K Pro. I already have stacks of L mount lenses and being able to use them on a Blackmagic would be amazing!

The set of Lumix f/1.8 primes plus this one seems such a nice price for good image quality... Great video as always

AMEN BROTHER! How do people hate on this camera. It's the closest image to an Alexa and Film. I had a Color Grade done by a guy from Fotokem and he asked if it was from an Alexa. True story!

The menus on these cameras are amazing. As a M43 user, I hope they do another Pocket with a M43 mount.

Who would have thought that the BMCC6K reduced $1,500 price tag coming "in a few years" actually came true just more than a month after this video was made, albeit temporary. It's just nutty! I swooped in on this baby. I truly believe this will be a classic. Nice video Patrick !

Love it & keep up the work‼️💪🏼

You hit the nail on the head with price and when they did drop the price to $1500, I grabbed one.

Bruhhh, I had to come back to this video lol. Not even a week later BM announces their cube 6K Pro 🤣 and it’s beautiful 🤩

Looks great, what iso settings did you use first that night footage ? Thanks

How many people came here after the Pyxis release and price drop😂 Dude you nailed it!

Great video mate, totally my thoughts! Loving this camera, impossible to beat especially for that price!

Breathtaking visuals as usual💯🕊️🔥

It gives me a vibe of 60s , 70s kind of feeling , thanks to its LUTs and also the built-in ND Filters , with such a low price for bang of performance , the only downside was the autofocus for movement , if static won't be an issue at all , but when comes to movement , sometimes either using follow focus, LiDAR , or an independent operator to assist. It is great camera , no doubt

I think you're totally right on the Sigma fp being another hidden gem. It's so fun to have these little outliers that do an _average_ number of things _really_ well. These are the same reasons I love to shoot film photography - it's all about the little nuances.

Bought this camera day one and I've been using since. I also bought the 6k pro day one and used for the last 3 years on a ton of commercials I DoP. For me, it's clearly the next chapter of blackmagic, even though they used the same body (which i learned to work around it) It truly is a super awesome camera, image quality coming out of it its super gorgeous, I love it ! Hopefully they use this sensor on different body sizes, like a ursa (but smaller) so i can add another one to my kit. Other than that, this camera is super cool !

I find the image coming out of this camera so pleasing! As a Lumix shooter as well, this seems like a next step up for a more "cinematic" image. I really like how you described it as a future classic, I think time will prove you right.

Great video Patrick! I couldn’t agree more. I shot a short film on it back in December that was nominated for best cinematography. Love this camera.

I love the out of the camera quality that comes directly out of this camera.....I'm going with an FX30 though just because it's easier to rig out and I literally hate the way the BMPC looks, and the screen doesn't tilt out.

I use the OG BMPCC just now, and this cheeky full frame beast has me tempted to upgrade for a future feature film. It will require a computer upgrade too unfortunately to handle the editing worklflow...

And Bam! Just a few weeks after this video is released, the price goes down 50%

I'm sure it's a great camera, but i don't see myself using it. It seems bulky, and something, that needs expensive accessories, and storge solutions to work as intended. I think Fujis are underrated too. You made me buy an X-S10 with your review, and i love it. Of course it's not cinema grade, but the F-log is enough for me for everything, even a carefull white balance fix, or a pretty hard colorgrade can be done with that, and if you want, you can record 10-bit with an Atomos. And you get the Fuji stuff, with all the benefits, and some of the disadvantages. You can get that in a very good condition under 1000€, and i think that is reasonable, great starting point, and as long as you don't want to record hi-res slo-mo, or above 6000 iso, I think it works for professional usage.

Was focusing manually with the focus by wire lenses janky? Just curious as I have all the Lumix f1.8 Primes minus the 24mm

This camera is a thing of beauty. Thanks for the video!

worth upgrading from 6k ef mount?

Would I like a box shaped camera for ease of rigging? Sure. But, ultimately, I am looking for the right tool in a camera. Having had the BMPCC4K, I fell in love with BRAW. I switched to Sony for the AF. But, if I can find a reason to go back to Blackmagic, I will. But, yea, the price for the BMCC6K is easy to swallow. Especially for that sweet BRAW color science. If you have any more footage from the BMCC6K, I would love to drool while watching it. Thanks.

Is it the same Sensor as in the Panasonic S5?

not even 3 days later and you are right on the point with the accounment of the Blackmagic PYXIS 6K

Just to clarify, at 5:12 you mention “screen on the side of it”. At the time you filmed this you meant a flippy screen right? Not what we got with the Pyxis, correct?

there are only 2 lamps in this shot. that seems low. lol! but seriously, as an OG shooter and a 4k, and a 6k g2 shooter, yeah I think you are spot on correct about this camera. It will be slept on, for a bit, but it will be one we look back on.

0:51 made me legit LOL. You nailed that test. 10 out of 10.

The real and the best rolling shutter test haha.

You are wrong about lamps... Ambient bioluminescent glow is the future.

At this point I am mostly curious about a pro version. I'm with you on the fact that they aren't likely to just magically drop a cube camera, but the odd part of this camera to me now is the tradeoffs between 6kPro and the Cinema6k. As a filmmaker in that budget range, you want a little bit of what both cameras offer.

I'm really curious what bodies they'll put this sensor in in the future.

I watched this video yesterday. Today I woke up with news of PYXIS. Can’t wait to see the review :)

Okay, what exactly is wrong with the current BMPCCCCCCCCCC Body? Besides that hilarious name? Genuinely curious. I only ever used a ursa before. Oh, yeah the big one. It was hilarious as well. lol.

Well you were right about them offering ursa form factor (now).

Blackmagic always deliver on image. With the pocket range (and now the cinema camera), you've got two types of people who want to buy them. There are people who want them as a B-cam to their more expensive camera, and people who want them as A-cams at a lower budget level. The A-cam people want a cube they can rig more easily, and the B-cam people LOVE the pocket body precisely because they don't need to rig it for low profile situations where they can't use their A-cam. They can't give the A-cam people what they want without losing the B-cam people. With the gap between the performance of different pricepoints closing fast, and the more expensive 12k ursa not selling well, I think blackmagic would do well to overhaul their ursa line. Design a boxy body with L-mount, put the pocket and c6k internals inside them, and that is just the ursa line now. They only have to continue to design 2-3 sensor platforms because they're shared between the bodies, and both a-cam people and b-cam people can be happy.

Is the opening shot filmed with the lumix 20-60 too? Looks so good!

Can get very close to this on a Fuji with promist. Nice footage. Great work.

Fast forward to today, and this camera is selling for $1500+ directly from B&H/Adorama. I've been a Sony shooter for the last 5 years, but this BMD seems like a great way to reignite the creative muscle. Thoughts on this vs the PYXIS?

It's also so much lighter then the previous models

So I'm assuming the PYXIS is a skip for you... but my question now is what are you looking for in a camera? Do you even want a box/cube cinema camera or are you waiting for a specific brand to release something with built in ND, sony-level autofocus and good IBIS?

Patrick you were wrong about something

Sure hope so, I just picked up 2 of these from Adoromo total savings of $2k

No stabilization? No flippy screen?

How about $1500 now. I almost bought it a day before the sale. I agree, it’s a future classic 😊

the bmcc6k is a cinema camera of all time

man I just want that free copy of resolve studio lol I can't even afford that let alone the camera, but idk why people hated on the 6k much. The body worked on previous pocket cameras and sure maybe a box would've been better but if it gets costs down and it wasn't that much complained on the previous pocket cameras, then I really see no problem.

here i am, sitting here debating the camera for $1575rn.

You are 100% right,

"Throw this sensor in an ursa" Prophetic

well... even with the new box camera, this camera still fits a solid need. The new camera needs a monitor and/or EVF which adds significant cost - so at this price point, this is the only camera of this quality that is good to go out of the box.

I'm still shooting my 4k. Honestly love it.

Pyxis 6k just came to fulfill your wish list.

very nice night footage! There are some other videos on youtube that complain about how bad it is in lowlight, what's your secret?

I think people are pissed it's essentially the same sensor just bigger. I mean I'd be upset too but it's comparatively cheap... Idk Still waiting on the new gen apsc sensor from BMD. 3:2 (or 4:3), faster readout speeds, 15 stops of DR, same great io and screen and a mirrorless mount at the same price. I'd actually be able to justify the purchase.

Called it!!! 👌🏽

Dune 3 on the BM FF 🥹

To me, the fact the camera only does BRAW is an instant turn-off (as on a lot of projects I have to deliver anything but raw [or log for that matter] directly straight out of camera an transcoding this, even with the most powerful of computer, is still time lost for those clients) the same way the fact that Kinefinitys only shoot log is.

Sounds like “GOKU and Gohan inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber theme”🔥🔥🔥🔥

Just got mine on the limited time sale for $1500😂

This was like…prophetic.

pyxis baby lesgoooooo. still waiting for s1hii though lol

Love this take.

At the end of the day the only thing that matters is the final image. BlackMagic produces incredible images. There's nothing wrong with the camera.

4:20. OMG yes. I've been screaming about this for ever in comments. Here's what my comment usually looks like Yes sure you don't like the new camera but please stop acting like BMD can compete with Sony and Canon. They are 2 complete different realms. No BMD can't implement autofocus in their cameras, not without a ton of work and why would they, most of their customers don't even use autofocus (I've literally seen so many BMD cameras in studio like environments. Imo that's the majority of their customer base) It drives me nuts when people assume putting in autofocus in camera is just a little bit of work and BMD is just lazy 😅

Has your opinion changed since yesterday?

Few years more like a few days

Lowlight is better than folks are saying no?

It’s crazy how a lot of people dismissed this camera and the hate it got. Every time I shoot with my 6K FF, I’m always amazed by how great it looks and grades compared to other more expensive cameras like Sony for instance. Absolutely unbeatable for what it does at its price point.

You are wrong that Blackmagic cannot compete with Sony or Cannon cinema lines

Pyxis oncoming

There's no way anyone is hating on like the best camera for shooting long form for under $3000.......SURE ....LY....

i don't hate it. I have one ;)

You're wrong about wanting a box camera. Knockoff Action Cameras circa 2015 are the ideal format

How does it feel knowing you accurately predicted the future like 3 or 4 times in this video?? Play those lotto numbers

you already knew...

Jajaja, the camera is perfect, but the codecs don't convey confidence.

Well shit. Look what just happened 😂

Yo Patrick, Who hates on this? This camera is a super beast.

LOL Month after this video its 1600 lol

Pyxis just dropped

1000usd for this camera in a year?😂 Cant buy the OG bmpcc for that price in europe 13 years later. What are you smoking man

If BM ever release a cinema camera with continuous eye autofocus, you’ll have to test that feature like the cool guys. No excuses.

I cried when I couldn’t get the 1000$ off offer on bmcc6kffolpf (just 1500$) in India and now I will have to settle with fujifilm xs20 which is no doubt a good choice but in future I’ll buy ursa12kffolpf or may be ursacine17k65mm.

Full Frame looks shit. Every DP in Hollywood knows that. Arri knows that, panavision knows that... but people think full frame is good. It steals you the look. S35 for ever. Get the 6k pro and be happy
