The color issue... I believe that the flat “yellow” look to the 4K is due largely to the speed booster. I’m not saying they are identical without the speed booster but WAY closer. At least the stuff I’ve gotten a chance to see that used both(friends projects) a skin tone test on the 4K with and without speedbooster would be awesome

@@julianburrus It's workable except for extreme close-up shots where you still need to capture sound. Also, my first copy had a defective fan. I sent it back to the retailer and they sent me a new camera. I don't see it as a complete deal-breaker, I just prefer cameras that shut down their fans while recording. Many of the bigger cinema cameras do this now - shut off or slow down the fan substantially while recording.

@@julianburrus I have the 6K and I'm an audio guy at heart. In an average silent-but-untreated room, you need to be inches away to hear the fan (with an ear or a microphone). I could only imagine it being audible in a dead silent treated studio where you're recording macro video with the mic on the camera. Even then, it's a very consistent low frequency and would be easy to filter in post. I worried about the fan noise too, until I actually got it in hand. The fan noise in the video is *severely* boosted, it makes it sound like a vacuum cleaner. In reality it's essentially silent and nowhere near such a high pitch.

There's already a full frame speedbooster for the 6K on the market - LucAdapters magicbooster - also adds a better IR Cut Filter and will have clip ND filters in the future. This makes shooting in 5.7K kind of attractive, because the field of view will still be wide, you can shoot 60fps, record in 3:1 and have a better rolling shutter time.

@@TrentsMullet Afaik there is still no card on the market that can shoot 3:1 Raw on 6k with 50fps. However, you can shoot 3:1 and 60 fps on 5.7k with a Samsung T5 (although the data rate shouldn’t be substantially lower, but it seems to be enough). So higher frame rate, better compression rate. When your finished product will be 4k, which it will be in most cases, then 5.7k is still good enough for getting crispy oversampled 4k or doing crop-ins and I bet you won’t be able to tell a difference, if I upscaled to 6k. Also the rolling shutter is reduced from 19,8ms to 16,3 ms and by that pretty much on par with the BMPCC 4k. So what’s there not to like? Maybe that the crop factor increases from 1.558 to 1.692. Well, put the magicbooster behind the lens and you are on 1.2 and gain 1 stop of light.

Absolutely love using it with my set of Zeiss ZE primes, and I can unscrew the focal reducer glass by hand whenever I want. By the way, if anyone wants one, Luca is very responsive on Facebook (just search LucAdapters). And I agree, shooting 5.7K is the way to go as it's such a nominal FOV loss with much better rolling shutter.

Yes it does, to counter that I would get a Zoom H1, H2, H4n, H5 or H6, from the smallest which is easily held in your palm to the biggest H6 which can still be handheld, or a Tascam or a Sony field recorder. Then bring in the good quality sound in post. It's an extra step, and annoying, I know, but that consistency of doing that will build a good habit of always relying on top notch sound for your footage, and rarely using the onboard camera recording unless of course you're recording kids running around, making noise and that will actually cover that annoying camera sound. Most of the time, I prefer using an external mic, it makes a vast difference in sound quality and stereo field.

The only time I'll happily record straight from camera is if I'm in a noisy atmosphere, and believe it or not, with some good EQ knowledge and a Compressor you can get the camera audio to sound closer to the H1. Anyways, cheers and enjoy the Blackmagic. I absolutely love mine.

As a user of the Pocket 4K for more then half a year: Please don't underestimate the file size, especially in RAW. Don't buy any of these camera's if it's your complete savings account. You really need a more expensive SD card for RAW (At least lexar 1667x, tested on 12:1 60fps 4kDCI) and a lot of (possible expensive) storage if you're going to be shooting on these. And don't forget you probably want a rig, extra batteries, several cards as backup, maybe even a gimbal like ronin-s or zhiyun, a special baseplate for the ronin-s or a cage for the zhiyun crane etc etc etc. The total towards shooting what you want is probably going to cost a lot more then you think. Make sure you have more savings to use and/or income.

The 4K fan might be quieter, but it might also be ineffective. A friend took a BMPCC 4K out to the California desert to shoot a narrative film (i.e., actors and sound) and it shut down in the heat. I'm working on a film now using a BMPCC 6K and it is having no trouble shooting in the Los Angles summer. Caveat.

My Panasonic Gh5 2 doesn't overheat, neither does the GH6. And i dont need no stinking speed booster. There's no crop on these cameras in ANY mode, so the hell with Black magic cameras.

Hey! Could someone help me? I'm pretty new with filming. Now that the 6k is 2000 bucks, would it be the better buy than the 4k with a metabone speed booster, which would be roughly the same? My taste: I like organic cinematic feel, vintage lenses and would also like to do music videos. Thank you!

I've used the 6k before, and while it does get great resolution and picture quality, from my point of view it's not worth it based on all of its cons. If you're more into vintage lenses and cinema, based on this video you're going to be able to get more variety of lens choices with the 4k. The thing I love most about the 6k is its color grading (I can't speak for the 4k since I haven't used it yet). However I absolutely HATE the battery life. You either need the powerbase edge which gives you about 3 hrs. of recording time, or you have to have A/C. Another problem I've run into with the 6k is that unless you significantly downgrade the picture quality, the file sizes are MASSIVE. I shot 5 minutes of footage and it was a 115gb file. That's insane. To be able to complete my project, I had to put the settings on ProRes LT to make the file sizes manageable, and that was about 1gb per minute of footage. With either camera you'll need to invest in a good size external hard drive. Some people really like using higher res cameras and downgrading the footage like he talked about, however the reality is that if you're not actually planning on editing and showing the footage in 6k, it's kind of a waste of money. Technology is just now catching up to be able to handle 4k. And like I said, if you want that vintage cinema feel, I think the lens choices you will have with the 4k cam will give you that ability. That's just my opinion.

@@alirazastudios4427 I honestly can't say because I have very limited experience with BlackMagic cameras. When I used the 6k, I had it paired with a Sigma Art Lens using the Canon EF mount, both the 18-35mm and the 24-70mm, mainly because that's what was available for me to use. Rokinon has a pretty decent cinema lens kit that gives you 6 prime lenses for $2,500. That would be more than enough to get you started. I would say don't invest in super expensive glass until you really know what you're doing. You can learn how to get great shots with a mid-level lens. If you're on a tight budget, then maybe get one zoom lens and one 50mm prime lens. But if you can afford to get a variety, that will help you get a wider diversity of shots.

If you live in USA, than Pocket 4K is cheaper version. But if you live somewhere in Asia, as i do. Pocket 4K is 1700$ + Metabones for Bmpcc4k is 900$ (including delivery and taxes). So in total it's 2600$. But i love it so much! Worth every cent that i invested.

You can buy a "Magic Booster" for the 6k. This reduces it to 1.1x crop. This sits between the sensor and the mount. It also acts as a very light promised filter making it more cinematic.
