Description

Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K next generation, Handheld High-End Digital Film Camera

The Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K is a next-generation, handheld 6K digital film camera with a 6048 x 4032 full-frame high resolution HDR sensor, dual native ISO, L-Mount, CFexpress recording, and direct recording to USB-C disks. Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K features an OLPF for better detail handling and records stunning 12-bit Blackmagic RAW for cinematic images and real-time H.264 proxies.

Large Format Cinematic Digital Film Sensor

Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K features a massive full-frame sensor with a native resolution of 6048 x 4032. That’s almost three times larger than a Super 35 sensor and allows customers to shoot with a shallow depth of field or to use anamorphic lenses uncropped for a truly cinematic look. Whether users are shooting in bright sunlight or in almost no light at all, the 13 stops of dynamic range with dual native ISO up to 25,600 provide stunning low-noise images in all lighting conditions. Plus, customers can shoot up to 36 fps at full sensor resolution or 120 fps windowed.

Full Frame Flexibility

The large full-frame sensor in the Cinema Camera 6K lets customers work in various film formats and aspect ratios without sacrificing quality. Using the full area of the sensor gives customers a unique open gate 3:2 image,, which also lets customers reframe their shots in post-production. The large sensor also lets customers work in true 6:5 anamorphic without cropping, making widescreen cinematic images more detailed and in higher resolution than previously possible. Customers can even use the classic Super 35-sized window on the sensor to create an instant ?close-up? version of their shot that fits seamlessly with open gate footage. All of this lets customers create distinctive cinematic content of the highest quality.

Next Generation L?Mount

Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K features an L-Mount, an advanced lens mount designed to accommodate full-frame sensors while ensuring compatibility with new and vintage lenses. With a large diameter of 51.6mm, L-Mount works with the latest full-frame lenses from manufacturers such as Leica, Panasonic, and Sigma. Plus, a very short flange distance of only 20mm means customers can easily add adapters for a variety of lens mounts without impacting image quality. With L-Mount, customers get a single mount that works with virtually any lens for unlimited creative choice.

Multiple Resolutions and Frame Rates

Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K can shoot in all standard resolutions and frame rates, from HD up to DCI 4K and even 6K. Customers can even shoot stills at 24.6 megapixels. Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K will shoot up to 36 fps at 6048 x 4032 3:2 open gate or 60 fps at 6048 x 2520 2.4:1 and 60 fps at 4096 x 2160 4K DCI. For higher frame rates customers can window the sensor and shoot up to 100 fps at 2112 x 1184 Super 16. Customers can even work in true anamorphic 6:5 at much higher resolutions than other cameras using anamorphic lenses in 4.8K 24 fps at 4838 x 4032. Customers can even shoot 120 fps in 1080HD.

Record to CFexpress Cards or External Disks

The Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K features a built-in CF-express card recorder and a USB-C expansion port for recording directly to external flash media disks or an SSD. CF-express media are more durable and faster than even older media, so they are perfect for recording full-resolution, 12-bit Blackmagic RAW files. Imagine capturing over an hour of full-resolution 6K images on a single 256GB CFexpress card.

Large 5″ LCD Monitor

Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K features a large, bright 5-inch HDR touchscreen that makes it easy for customers to frame shots and accurately focus, whatever the conditions. On-screen overlays show status and record parameters, histograms, focus peaking indicators, levels, frame guides,, and more. Customers can quickly apply 3D LUTs for monitoring shots with the desired color and look. The LCD monitor can even be tilted up to 180 degrees flat and down to 47 degrees, so it’s easy to monitor their shot from virtually any position. Plus, its HDR display features 1500 nits of brightness, so customers can always frame their shot, even in bright sunlight.The Cinema Camera 6K supports an optional viewfinder to make outdoor and handheld shooting accurate and easy. Customers get an integrated, high-quality 1280 x 960 color OLED display with a built-in proximity sensor, and a 4-element glass diopter for incredible accuracy with a wide -4 to +4 focus adjustment. The EVF is extremely easy to connect to the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K, as it simply mounts on top of the camera with a single screw.Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K uses high-capacity NP-F570 batteries. A locking DC power connector is used so customers won’t have to worry about losing power during a shoot. Plus, the included AC plug pack can power the camera or charge the battery when the camera is not in use. Even the USB-C expansion port can trickle charge the battery, so customers can use portable battery packs, mobile phone chargers, or laptops. The optional battery grip lets customers add extra batteries to dramatically extend the power of the camera, so they can keep shooting all day.”With the new Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K, we wanted to create the most portable camera possible for high-end, large format cinematography,” said Grant Petty, Blackmagic Design CEO. “That?s why we took the Pocket Cinema Camera platform but completely re-engineered the electronics inside around a full-frame sensor and L-Mount. This means our customers get amazing large-format images in an extremely portable design that also works with the accessories they already own. The L-Mount also opens up some amazing creative options, like using the latest Leica lenses or using vintage lenses customers already own in an entirely new way. This is a truly high-end cinema camera designed for high-end work, and we think it gives our customers a whole new way to tell their stories.To view more Products BlackmagicRelated Camera Products: Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K ProBlackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera Pro EVF for 6K ProBlackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K Handheld Digital Film Camera Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K 35mm Digital Film CameraBlackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K OLPF 35mm Digital Film CameraBlackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Camera with EF Lens MountBlackmagic URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 Digital Film CameraBlackmagic Camera Digital Film Camera Controls to Apple iPhone
