Can’t beat Blackmagic for image.

6k 3:2 is up to 36fps. 6k 17:9 is up to 48fps.

@@thesavagefilmmaker ARRI does 😅

⁠@@JeanSebastienLEGERwith an hefty price tag.

@@JeanSebastienLEGER obviously he was talking in the same price bracket, Sony Venice and Arri color are obviously best but Blackmagic does amazing for the price

Got one for my a7siii and S5iix love the cine style.

It’s not out yet

Same here, my S1 is great but the Cinema 6k is my best camera for video.

Can’t beat the Blackmagic when you are willing to film with it like a cinema camera.

Pretty great cameras, now what I expected TBH.

Thanks man, good to see you! ❤️

Appreciate that, because thats what I waste all my time on creating those cutaways.

Awesome, thank you!

Give me a bit of Frankenstein and auto focus.

It really doesn't look that bad - especially because it's all blacked out.

@@benjamin.kelleyLooks super Bad imho 🙈 the SSD on top alone is a no go

Give him a break, hes trying to pimp gear and make money. that's all they are good for these days!

​@@benjamin.kelleyFunny you should praise the blackout vibe, as I was just elated over the rig *not* being aesthetically damaged with some ugly "condor blue" colored parts, knobs or cabling. 😂

You can’t be serious. Better features like false color, 2 CFexpress card slots, the best menu system of any camera to date and in a box/cube style with stunning images and great color science.

@@Sethmotley You could just get the False Color V-Log LUT. The BM menu is good, but there's nothing amazing about it. It's simple, it's easy, and that's about it. If I'm really honest with you, it's mostly thanks to it being so light in features. Cramp it up with stuff like you get on Panasonic or Sony cams, and it will lose most of its benefits. Yeah, two CF cards are great, and so is having IBIS. I have nothing against Black Magic; I love mine, and the image is indeed better, but unless all you do is traditional set productions, I would gladly pick the S5II lineup for 70%-80% of the bulk work.

@@lfcruzsierra I have both camera BMD and LUMIX and I think is quite silly to compare them to be frank. A Camera is just like a tool. You don’t use a hammer if you want to screw something in and you don’t use a screwdriver if you want a hammer something, the Pyxis is not a swiss army knife camera they are meant for cinematographers to make movies,documentary and so on. Whatever your project calls for that’s the camera you use.

​@@Sethmotley absolutely. someone needs to evaluate what their needs are. For the majority of people (especially starting out), I would recommend an S5II or IIx over a blackmagic cam. The Panasonic can be used for "content creation" which sometimes means "hybrid shooting" for some people. But it can also be built up to be a proper "cinema camera" (i.e. shutter angle, waveform, XLR add-on, external battery, even BRAW). Will it do it as well as the Pyxis? Debatable, but most would probably say no. However, the Pyxis can't go the other way and be turned into a hybrid camera. It's impossible. No built-in evf, fixed screen, and while it can take stills, nobody would use it for that dedicated purpose. Most people would need to "graduate" into a proper cinema camera like the Pyxis. In other words, they're getting those kinds of jobs or they have the free time to dedicate to filmmaking. Other people without that luxury could use the S5II for a variety of purposes. Photo, video, social, even a vacation/family camera. Luckily, since both are L-mount, they can be used alongside each other.

​@@Sethmotley I haven't disputed that, I'm just praising the versatility of the Lumix as an user an owner of both...having a camera that can work well on a movie, documentarie and also works for run and gun style, photography, media content...make me want to pick the Black Magic less and less but still the image is king. That's still my point, regardless of what i think of the Pyxis. I just expected more.

Yes, I did say exactly that in the video. 😂😂

Currently in development. Stay tuned! :)

@@RigidPRO Ni-i-i-ice! I hope you see the result! Just what I need. [Hides some cash for future investment]. I'll follow you. 💰

💯💯

Or Caleb's cineback is a copy of this?

@@thesavagefilmmaker this is the copy. Stop insisting

@@thesavagefilmmaker Hey fellow Kiwi, my main problem with this vid is at 7:30 "unlike another company making something similar". The rest seems alright, if you'd address or fix it with some humility that'd be sweet, or just delete this comment as well

Okay tough guy 😂👍

Thanks, I own more Blackmagic cameras than any other cameras, but it's true I'm not a fan of the Pyxis.

@@thesavagefilmmaker all good brother I got that from the vid. That rear attachment does give you some added advantages. I pre-ordered the Pyxis myself and I bought the BM Micro Sdio 4k G2 to audition as B or C cam. The BMPCC body style kept me from getting into BMD previous. Continue being savage my brother.

Are you have a video sample?

Would love to try this with a GFX!

I did mention those things in this video.

Yes I compare prices, watch the 2nd half of the video!

Definitely watch the second half of the video.

I did. Good stuff!

Yes, I've used it with my Blackmagic 6K full frame camera.

As a professional filmmaker for near 20 years I have to disagree. On big productions absolutely there are some things that are always expected. But the world of indie projects and smaller productions is full of these types of cameras as b, c and even A cams and that is only going to increase in the future as budgets get smaller and the industry is required to do more with less. I live in a world where I may see an Arri on set or an Fx3 and to be fair if these cams get you in striking distance of ‘pro’ cinema cameras with a ‘cinema’ look, of course everyone will want that. If you think these cams are for hobbyists only you’re seriously misjudging the evolving landscape of film. Old guard mentality.

@@thesavagefilmmaker you haven’t been the sound mixer who gets called by the editor asking why there’s no timecode when they shot on an fx3 that requires a usb dongle for timecode and the acs had no room to rig that usb dongle and now the editor has to sync manually for 30 days worth of footage. A Panasonic with HDMI timecode is even worse. You really expect an editor to clap sync a 30 day show? My point isn’t that these cameras are hobbyist cams. More so than just using the right camera for the job instead of rigging something out for something it wasn’t meant to do. If you needed to put all these things on your mirrorless to service your production, just use something that’s purpose made so you don’t make people like me have a harder time. It just passes along the stress to different people instead of using the correct tool. I’m an IA card carrying PSM in LA. I’m not just a filmmaker. I see this shit on a daily basis. I’m not saying this to bash you, but more to encourage others to use the tools that can best serve EVERYONE and not just the picture. I have no doubt your mirrorless produces professional picture. Shit I’m a believer in lighting over anything. But understand it’s not just about the picture. Remember my department keeps you in sync and we give u the fancy smart slate the least we’d expect is seamless timecode inputs.

Agree, I did mention that 🤣

If you used 15mm rails on the bottom, it would be no taller than any other cine-rig that has bottom rails. However you could easily rig rails to the top plate as well if you didn't want to make it taller. Timecode over HDMI only.

You’re right that is a very valid concern. I have not noticed this as an issue and filmed on the 6k pro’s which also has no OLPF, I have very rarely noticed the moire issues in filming, but I have not filmed enough with the S5 to give a good assessment yet.

Personally I would just use the S5iix's in body stabilisation, it's very effective, the best I've tried. If your lens also has stabilisation it's even better. I don't need anything extra, but If I wanted smooth tracking shots then a Gimbal like the DJI Rs3 would be your best bet.

@@thesavagefilmmaker Have you ever used cinesaddle (there are analogs for 150$) or its analogs? I think maybe using ibis and cinesaddle will result in a super smooth picture?

Can we dare to dream?

Haha.

Probably because it hasn’t come out yet 🤷🏾‍♂️. That’s my guess. The fact that no one technically owns one but we’re here talking about it is the literal antithesis of your statement.

I mean like he said at the end of the video, nothing sub 5k beats the blackmagic image, for me image comes at the very top of my priorities.

BRAW from the S5iix and BRAW from the BMCC6k or the Pyxis are identical as they use very similar sensors and the implementation of BRAW on the S5iix is excellent.

​@@Wildridefilms I've used both cameras, and the Blackmagic delivers a more "filmic" image than the S5iix... The sensor isn't the only factor; if it were, many cameras would look identical... Image processing is also a significant part of the equation.

No Ibis, No auto focus, No B-raw. Otherwise good.

@@thesavagefilmmaker external braw, and most cinema cameras don't want ibis or auto focus.

SDI is better, but having HDMI and SDI is best.

SDI is better. They’re faster and they lock in place. Neither Reds, nor Arris have hdmi ports. It’s redundant. It’s like having usb-c and asking where the slower old usb ports are. You can convert if you need to.

Hard disagree on that one, when you change the shape you change the balance, and that lets you attach things like you would an actual larger cinema camera. This is a much more elegant way to attach a v-mount plus accessories than the regular cheese plate, v-mount plate, and rails, that regular dslr rigs always require.

@@thesavagefilmmaker sure , but a much more pricey way as well. Buying a V mount plate , a rod mount and 2 cheese plates that attach on thr rods or on the side of the cage will come out much cheaper for a beginner. If someone is not a beginner than they can just buy a komodo and dont have to “replicate “ the box shape. ( deepends ofc on what you want from your camera because some mirorrless have different much needed features than the komodo , this is just an example) Box is easier to rig , no arguing over that, but the price on a 3D printed accessory that does not do anything more than a regular D tap splitter , it does not have a voltage meter either like the good quality splitters is crazy.

If it were CNC machined, with a voltage meter built in and with a QR thst allows you to attach and deattach from the cage in seconds.. well that would be something.

I think there is a narrative that Caleb came up with this concept. I think the reality is Caleb popularised this concept to KZfaqrs, but was not the first to create these. So I'm not losing any sleep over making note that the products are never in stock :D

s5iiX has been out for ages bro. 😂😂😂

Does a z-cam have auto focus and IBIS? Nope.

You don't need autofocus

Search your feelings. 😂

@@thesavagefilmmaker lol well color me subscribed. Glad you had a chuckle.

Don’t have a constructive comment, don’t say 🤣🤣

Doesn’t look ugly to me. I’m more interested in the additional features. As for the Pyxis, it’s going to look just as ugly once you have a proper monitor, audio cables and a better power solution. A Pyxis is just a cube, that cube will still require a rig out.

@@thesavagefilmmaker - a top monitor and a Sony BU battery is hardly rigging a camera out. This this thing is just a disguise - trying to fool people into thinking you have a professional cinema camera.

@@iamkubrickor he’s building out something he prefers 🤷 I own the first gen bmpcc6k and still prefer it over the Pyxis. But taking a hybrid camera and having the option to rig it out, ugly or not, it increases the features of what he’s using. To the creator of the video it is beating out the Pyxis and others might agree. It’s just their preference 🙌

@@TheHeadG4mer fair enough - but when the thumbnail says ‘pyxis killer? ‘ the creator of the video can expect some backlash. Thumbnail should be ‘camera cage killer?’.

@@iamkubrick but you do realize that backlash does increase his algorithm and reach as well right? So you commenting that is helping him out so regardless if he’s wrong or not, he’s actually right to do it and smart at that 🙌 but regardless his title still might be accurate in his opinion 🤷 and we all have different preferences so I or you might not agree, but even then someone else might
