22:51 This camera has a lot of great features, but how do you find the lack of IBIS? Do you find enough lenses with enough stabilization? Or you have another work around like shooting style or fix in post? How do you find manual focusing only?

[@WoodsonsWorldStudios]

Great breakdown. I just ordered the 6K Pro… I should have it Thursday to shoot my feature on in two weeks.

[@investvfx]

Can i use the normal crane 3s with the blackmagic 6k pro, battery grip and a microphone? Above all, I have doubts about whether the blackmagic will fit with the battery grip on. I was also wondering what video tripod you recommend between $100 and $300, I would also need one that can hold the camera vertically, do you know of any? Thank you 🙂

[@60park]

Hi Michael, enjoyed the great tutorial and 1000hr round up. Yes, I also found the viewfinder hood coming off and then making sure I did not lose it hugely irritating.. What worked wonders was a simple black light duty cable tie to secure it and never had a problem again !

[@initialfocus]

ooo that’s a solid idea! Might have to try that!

[@Chromedbustop]

Had to pause the video to say I LOVE Blackmagics UI on the cameras. You get used to Sony, Canon, Nikon menus, sure. But they always feel very sort of utilitarian. As silly as it sounds, the ui on the BMPCC cameras is actually fun to use. One of the best features of the cameras. for sure.

[@initialfocus]

That’s such a great way to word it! I can absolutely use other camera brands menus because it’s a utility but blackmagic’s is actually a joy.

[@CarlAustinGregory]

6:48 - Yes, I own Sony gear and Blackmagic gear, and I use Canon at work. Blackmagic has the best UI. The menu is the so easy to use. My Sony A7II's menu is cumbersome in comparison, but like you said, you really to just get used to whatever you have because of learning it over time. It's a very nice feature, but for those who can make - what I would call an upgrade to Blackmagic - don't sweat it! You'll do well shooting with what you have if you learn your camera inside and out, and customize it to make it easier on you to use (like customizable buttons, settings, whatever - like Sony did with the C buttons on my A7II).

[@MrIanWebb]

I love the SmallRig NPF battery plate as a solution for extra battery life. It's not too large and I have it mounted on a quick release adapter. I keep one battery in the camera and then a NP-F970 on the battery plate, when that dies, the camera then begins drawing from the internal without cutting out.

[@initialfocus]

Great solution! I do love BM for having internal battery so that you can hot swap batteries without ever cutting!

[@stevenhower1228]

Hi Michael. I am brand spanking new to this video scene and just purchased this camera a couple of days ago and it will be arriving today. I noticed you had a 15mm Irix on the camera. I too am planning on using the Irix Cine lenses myself. Which mm lens would you start off with if you didn’t have a single lens for the camera? I will be doing this as a hobby and if anything, will be shooting/creating an intro music video for a future entertainment/DJ company. I was leaning towards the 30mm but that 40mm could be a better choice. In the future I plan on purchasing about 4 of the lenses. What do you think?

[@guguemichaels]

Enjoyed the video. I just wanted to point out that, this camera is not made for run and gun. I really wish people will understand that. It is made for indie films, commercials and music videos. It's made for controlled environment. When used as what it was made for, the battery life is not even a factor. So I think people need to stop complaining about the battery life. This is not a vlog / run and gun / wedding camera. People should buy DSLR cameras or mirrorless cameras if they want that kind of small long lasting battery life. This is a cinema camera in a small body. key word being "cinema". Nonetheless, nice video. enjoyed it very well.

[@tombuck]

I only had the chance to use a 6K Pro for a week, but the menu system ruined me for all other cameras. This is an excellent long term review! 👏

[@TheMxSFxT]

Great review man! Also love my kitted BMPC6K, solved most of the issues that the Pro does with some add-ons... but mannnnn I really wish I knew the full Tilta cage wasn't going to work on the Ronin S. I've not been able to get it balanced for sh*t because of that tiny sliver of cage on the right side of the body, even with the mounting plate and all. Such a pain. Also, while I agree about the plastic body, they'd for sure have to keep the weight super light to avoid needing an OP gimbal. But yeah, maybe carbon fiber or something... like a "rugged" edition lol.

[@prabhakarrao4922]

I have used the 6K Pro and I must say the videos out of it are very good. I have owned both the 6K Pro and the Lumix GH5 I would say in most situations the 6K Pro does produce a more pleasing result. Certainly a "softer image" which I prefer. However the 6K is not a well built camera and will not take even a moderate knock whereas the GH5 is an extremely well built tough unit. My 6K did freeze on 2 occasions but for me that is not a biggie. One of the most amazing features the 6K Pro offers is the builtin ND filters. This feature alone is worth at least $600 in my books.

[@Jaxplode]

There so many nice options to shoot handheld with the 6k pro and getting less shaky footage. I got rid of using gimbals so much even with commercial. for me most cinematographers have something like a reflex always grabbing the gimbal in the fear of dealing with shakes and so on... but its a good way of learning to film much more old school.

[@petespanchos]

Director here. I honestly dislike gimbals. I try and shoot on sticks, on my tripod dolly or handheld. Occasionally I’ll use a gimbal for a pedestal shot or a tracking/dolly shot on uneven terrain but otherwise old school is better 👍

[@brettvadset2387]

My 15yrold son has been scripting, shooting and editing now now stop for the last 4years. He has a Nikon DSLR that he has loaned from school film department now for over 2 years.

Looking at Black magic 4k, 6k, or 6k pro...thoughts?

[@initialfocus]

I love Blackmagic cameras obviously! The biggest thing to know though is to film by yourself with Blackmagic can take quite a few extra accessories like monitors, cine lenses, focus gears, tons of batteries etc. if he needs/wants anything like autofocus or a smaller camera package then may want to look at stuff like Sony/Canon mirrorless. But for films and traditional movie making I think Blackmagic is the best you can get for the money.

[@waynelast1685]

21:40 I watched several BMD 6k pro videos. One video mentioned fan noise created near on-camera mics. have you experienced that as well? It seems like the fans could really create an issue . I know most professionals would not use on-cam mic as primary but if one is doing run and gun ( like a wedding) then the on-cam mic would almost be necessary.

[@LuisBazan]

The long-awaited review!

[@christianhotter]

I like that Tilta has already made an extension cable for the viewfinder. That should let people use the 6k pro as a shoulder mount camera.

Right! Tilta is always innovating like crazy.

[@davidjaypeterson644]

[@DutchAussieProductions]

Thanks for the video, Michael. I appreciate all the effort and time you spend making very informative videos. I like you, like the Blackmagic Design camera menus. I had not used my Sony DSLR for several months, and when I needed it, I had to almost relearn how to use the camera. Sony has rubbish menus and is the reason I changed to my BMPCC 6K. Have a great day.

[@Oguz-mv3hi]

Very helpful review, thanks for that🙏.We actually started producing an indie film with a BM 6k. After 7 days of filming we decided to switch to a RED Raptor camera to scale up from "indie" quality to "Hollywood/Bollywood" quality. The BM 6K is without a doubt an outstanding camera, especially when you consider the price-performance ratio. However, an experienced Hollywood colorization expert must then lend a hand during the colorization process so that you can get a somewhat cinematic feeling. Unfortunately, the BM 6k does not close the gap to premium league cinema movie quality and for 2-2.5k $ one cannot expect that. However, I agree with some of the comments here that the BM 6K is very suitable for indie and "standard" music video productions and documentaries.

[@exit61]

Absolutely awesome and in-depth review. You covered it all and covered it well. Thank you. You definitely sold me on that camera

[@brettrohlfingvideo]

I saw in the menu an option for Horizon and Crosshair on the "Grids" menu. Is it just a dead line through the center, or doe sit move and change color when it's perfectly lined up like a GH5 horizon? It being called a "grid" makes me think it's not an active tool and just a flat line, but I hope I'm wrong.

Hi Michael how is possible to use only the EVF and not the monitor?I did not find this in the menu.

[@initialfocus]

The EVF is activated and monitor turned off when that sensor has something in front of it. There’s no way like you said to only have the EVF turned on and monitor off. Closest you could do if you’re trying to save battery is to lower the screen brightness all the way down and just use the EVF.

Thank you for your hard work on this video. Do you have a video that covers the best settings with a DaVinci workflow.

Great review, very thorough and intelligent. I'd like to see a little more talk on the workflow, and color grading the footage through resolve, etc. But maybe that's a different vid. I want to use this as more of a music video, experimental film type camera and less for complete narrative work. I like the fact that you were comfortable shooting it handheld for a long time. And the fact that it feels like a toy was something I never heard before, so good to know. Yes, I would gladly pay extra for a more formidable body as well. Cheers...

Thanks man. Nice review. I am on a c200 at the moment thinking about a switch. Did u had the chance to compare it? Alternatively the c70 would but a great choice but of course way more money. I guess the nd6 falls a bit short if you really want to shoot wide open on a sunny day on the 6k pro. So are u still using the 6k? Also how much crop do I get in 6k raw mode? I am also interested in your lenses? How do they hold up? Are they sharp wide open? Guess the are full frame? Which focal length did you like the most?

This is a bit of a bummer, since its uncomfortable to press record directly on the camera once its mounted on the gimbal. Any advice on how to fix this? Thanks

Great video, saving my pennies!!! Question - for my own learning - why does it seem to me that so many of your scenes here seem washed out, and cold be more 'vibrant'? I'm sure my rookie ass is missing something, so this isn't a dig, i'm just wondering?

[@jonniecandito181]

I have noticed many Blackmagic videos look that way. I suspect part of it is stylistically of course, but also part of it might be due to the fact that Blackmagic shooters often "expose to the right" as it's known to have a decent amount of noise if you expose too dark. And what I suspect is that causes many users to keep it over-exposed when editing, rather than bringing it back down. I think it's a geniune error on the user end, as I have seen some sharp and contrasty footage from Blackmagic. It's just surprisingly rare.

[@davidjaypeterson644]

[@davidjaypeterson644]

On 4k it's impossible to correctly expose using built-in monitor in daylight

I mean I can hear the fan technically when I put my ear up to it sure but I don’t really get it in the internal mics. That being said the internal mics are really made for high quality audio capture. In my opinion they are solely good for scratch audio. Either a on camera mic or separate audio recording is definitely a must on any important dialogue or sounds.
