So, you want to know about shooting in 6K? Or, how the Super-35mm sensor differs from the sensor found in the Pocket 4K? Well, you can find all that information in our 6K review. As I noted in my initial hands-on impression video (see below), if you want to see what images the 6K Pro produces, you can do so by searching for BMPCC6K footage as the sensor is no different from the Pocket 6K. Although with the rate at which the SmallRig moves, I wouldn’t be surprised if a 6K Pro cage popped up across production outlets within the next few weeks. So, before instantly jumping up to the 6K Pro, you’d have to wait for the manufacturing of third-party cages.

With that, it (of course) renders your camera cage null and void. While there’s nothing inherently disproportionate with the design, and it’s fine for most circumstances, it’s widely accepted that the camera’s bulky handgrip and weight distribution doesn’t make the camera that handy for use with gimbals without additional counterbalance tools.ĭue to the new hardware, which we’ll discuss shortly, the camera is slightly larger and heavier than the standard 6K model (by now, you should know the word “Pocket” is in ethos and not to be taken literally).

However, the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro, which I’ll simply refer to as the 6K Pro from here on out, follows the same design principle as the previous cameras. The cubed design is versatile, compact, and offers a broad range of modular upgrades. With the increase in boxed format cameras, see the Komodo, Z-Cam E2, and the Panasonic BGH1, many expected Blackmagic’s next Pocket Cinema Camera to follow the new design trend.
