The Super 35 23.1 x 12.99mm HDR Gen 5 CMOS sensor sits behind a Canon EF mount that will accept a multitude of lenses. My review unit featured the five-inch tilting LCD touchscreen, three F570 batteries, the Blackmagic Pocket Camera Battery Pro Grip, and the optional electronic viewfinder Good luck.The Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 is a very solidly built camera-much like a DSLR on steroids. Only experience will help you get the right settings for your work. Use either a light meter or the in-camera false color to check exposure.Įxperiment. Start with using native ISO and adjust stops. Make sure your media supports your selection of codec, codec rate, and frame rate.Ĭalibrate your camera and adjust to get the WB you want.Įxpose (and monitor your exposure) to get the best dynamic range of your image. If you want to have the utmost flexibility in post grading, then shooting in BRAW at a lower compression will give you more flexibility. Ask yourself if you will be needing filters too.

Use a lens that will give the desired image (sharpness, softness, vintage, etc.) that you're going for. That's something you will need to figure out. Alternatively, you might prefer to set up your camera and light the scene based on your camera setting. Your settings will depend on how you are planning to light the scene. There is no Prores RAW on any of the Blackmagic cameras, including the BMPCC 6K. Let's get something out of the way first. Not familiar with any of the settings as far as 5:1, 3:1, Constant bit rate, constant quality, etc. First time user and I want to make sure i'm recording in the best settings and also what will I need if I want to shoot in BRAW unless Pro Res Raw will be okay to shoot in. I'm gonna be shooting a commercial that will be on both web and tv and was wondering what the best settings are to shoot in with the BMPCC 6K.
