The next version needs this. I also think 8k would have been better. 2025 is around the corner. This camera reminds me on the BMCC 2.5K i got at launch. Same vibe. But they need to fix/add things and make it a bit more expensive.

@@a5pictures They have, but this is supposed to be the compact box form factor. They put 6K in the product name for a reason. Next year everyone wants to upgrade to the Pyxis 8K. Sure it's not a problem, but rather unfortunate.
@kris46372 ай бұрын
1. Most box style cameras come with terrible tiny screens because for this style of cameras it is an afterthought, but BM went above and beyond to bring a big side screen. That is a huge pro, not a con. 2. It has SDI, which is superior in everyway. 3. It is by design! when you're out in the wild there are scenarios that will make you want to lock all the buttons INCLUDING the record, ESPECIALLY the record button because if you accidentally hit it, you're losing footage that you won't be able to shoot again. 4. Big whoops, for the price it is expected, it's not that bad. Most people who complain about rolling shutter only do so because the are looking for it. There are tons of movies with visible rolling shutter that won't take you away from the movie. 5. It's an under $3k camera ffs, you can't win it all. for the price you're getting a camera that stands shoulder to shoulder with an Arri Alexa in most scenarios and these YT idiots compain about the most insignificant things.

For the HDMI to USB-C monitor, you CANNOT use USB-C to HDMI-to-HDMI adapter to monitor, it has to be direct, HDMI to USB-C no interconnections interfering. You have that exact problem, remove the adapter and get a USB-C to HDMI Direct, and you fix it. Source: I daily use this method with my Portkeys LH7P.

1. Screen rotation: BM will fix this soon. 2. HDMI: Nope not needed at all. 3. Lock settings toggle: BM will also fix this one soon. 4. Rolling shutter: Can be easily fixed in seconds with DaVinci Resolve Stabilization -> Mode: Camera Gyro. 5. Internal NDs: You don't really need them. You have more creative freedom without them. Internal NDs would not beat or be as flexible as the NiSi True Color Swift System VND and would also not be better than having a NiSi Athena Prime lens with drop-in blades. These 5 issues are all minor and BM will fix two of them soon. The upcoming Pyxis monitor will make this camera even better and should be shipping around November 20th. Nope, I'm super happy with my Pyxis L-mount and I am glad I decided not to buy a Komodo-X. I've seen side-by-sides of the BM vs Komodo and BM has the better color and skin tones than the Komodo. For the same picture and harsher colors, the extravagant price of a Komodo doesn't make any sense.

With due respect, camera is not the star of any movie, music video, short films or commercials. I've shot over 10 feature films with various cinema cameras. Shot my first film in 1995. And camera is a tool used to tell a story, period. If you want vertical camera, why not use your iPhone? You're pretty big on using those, aren't you? Complaining about a cinema camera not able to shoot vertical videos for TikTok or IG story is crazy to me. Blackmagic have spoiled a lot of you KZbin and content creator guys. If you are not making movies or commercials or music videos, this camera is not for you, sir. Lastly, it's a $3k camera but you all want it to do what a $60 - $100K cameras does. Smh...it's wild to me.

Congrats on all those features. Sounds like a truly awesome career! You’re not necessarily wrong about anything you’ve said. I will say though that I too work in the real “pro” world and not just a sit behind a desk KZbinr. I understand it’s just a tool and some of these points may sound petty like vertical flips. My only response really is either it’s feedback I’ve gotten from commenters or DMs to pass on to BM or just some not so deep thoughts. If BM never releases an update to flip the screen you won’t hear anymore complaints from me. If some new sensor comes out that has horrible patterned noise like they used to then sure both you and I will be speaking up about that hah! Appreciate the feedback.

I agree on all your points. So many people are gushing over this camera, and rightly so for the price. However, there are so many obvious oversights with its design that I’m confident Blackmagic is already working on a new iteration. This version is selling very well, due to the very good image quality and bargain price. While it truly IS a good value, many corners were cut to bring it to market at $3k.

I like the BM Community. Seems to be all the apple guys who defend every product. I bought this week the PYXIS and tbh. He is right. Specially the rolling shutter is really bad on this one. I filmed a lot with the pocket 6k g2, and I was never disturbed by the rolling shutter. But the PYXIS is shifting while handshaking the camera. This camera is designed for only very slow movement. Forget to pan while shooting, it's crap. I was nearly crying when I tested it yesterday. I am really thinking about revoking the purchase. I hope BM will make a G2 or Pro version with better rolling shutter. Internal ND would be also a nice feature, but the rolling shutter is much more important on this one.

@@initialfocusthe 6k pro has both a smaller sensor (which means it can use smaller filters) and the body around the sensor in that camera is bigger than the Pyxis.

The sensor is SO out of date. That’s why I sold my two BMCCs and canceled my Pyxis order. Open gate doesn’t matter given the awful rolling shutter and the very poor low light performance. If all your filming is locked down interviews or narrative in well lighted spaces I guess it’s an okay camera. But if you have to do run and gun in the real world I’ll pay the up-charge for an FX6 every time.
