First Look & Setup - Blackmagic PYXIS 6K 🔥

[@-austinsmith]

Hey man, you’ll want to check out the SDI protocol. Powering it on with cable already in will ruin your SDI input.

[@LeeZavitz]

Yeah it was the same procedure as with the Komodo

[@eddie_g]

Loving my Pyxis so far! Excited to see what you create with this thing!

[@RyuBlaze24]

Really appreciate your vids and this especially!!! Good stuff!

[@SightseeingStan]

Nice one Lee! 🙌 Can't wait to get my Pyxis sent out! 🤤

[@LeeZavitz]

Nice! its a whole lot of camera for the price. It's kind of insane tbh. I know it's quirky but for what I shoot its perfect.

[@theboringmiddle]

backdrop reminding me of GMM. love it

Is B&H Photo Video congested or what? I ordered my Pyxis (L mount) as the kit with the Irix 21 and 24mm lenses and it's on backorder. How are all these creators getting this camera? Were you also on backorder when you placed your order?

[@LeeZavitz]

They are showing as in stock at B&H now so I think they are starting to fulfill orders. I got mine direct from Blackmagic which is how a few of us are getting them (early) first batch.

[@smith8747]

Great Video. You share studio license If you don’t need?

[@PD_DOP]

Nice unboxing. Side screen is awesome, for menu or false colours. Still you all need extra monitor, I used a n my rig subs to HDMI cable to hook up monitor with transmission. Shoulder mount RIG. 😊

[@LeeZavitz]

Yeah even when I had it on the car rig I took off the top handle and monitor to keep it more compact and I could still see the image from the side screen which was kinda nice

[@PD_DOP]

@ exactly, and funny enough, while shooting interviews… monitor on side of the camera… priceless 🤪 hahah

[@PD_DOP]

@ haha nice. Of course we are talking about situations when it works to use side monitor for preview, but it doesn’t mean that it’s main purpose. Let’s say it out loud: this monitor’s main purpose is for menu… but can by useful for other purposes in some circumstances. Period. Hehe

[@RodieOsc]

Was gonna get this but bought the FX3 instead.

[@colinthomas2525]

Nice video, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to see what you do with it.

[@LeeZavitz]

Thanks for watching. Yeah I shot one big production with it so far and it ran flawless and footage looks amazing.

[@colinthomas2525]

@ I want one but I’m sticking with the finicky bmpcc og as I’m a beginner still learning colour grading, editing, ect. I’m also hoping the og’s limitations help me to learn the fundamentals without all the fluff so to speak. Treating it like a film camera with those crazy large cDNG files.

[@LeeZavitz]

@@colinthomas2525we all had to start some where. At least you can shoot raw and get a feel for what it’s like to colour grade that. But it’s crazy how much of a camera you get with the Pyxis for the price.

[@guylain.caudron]

I've had the Pyxis for a month. One thing was bothering me-the lack of a tally light on the camera. And now you’ve just taught me that the small LED on the power button also serves as a tally light! 😭

[@LeeZavitz]

Yeah there should be one on the front, so weird that there isn’t one.

[@bensmart3569]

Pls how is the L mount to EF adapter with variable ND filter working with focusing. I am trying to see if I can get the PL mount and use the variable ND filter adapter, but I was told it dose not focus properly.

[@LeeZavitz]

For one. The Pyxis doesn’t have continuous autofocus. So it’s just gonna be a spot focus when you hit the focus button. So it’s really not useful for that. But I did try it on the s5iix which does have continuous autofocus and it was ok. I tried it with just the canon nifty fifty 1.8

[@JadonSantos36]

I try to find samsung s21 camera photography but I've never find it on your KZbin channel😢

[@LeeZavitz]

I’ve never tried an S21

[@EldenEleSinema]

Thinking one to buy. Looking forward to see your opinion

[@LeeZavitz]

Nice! So far I've only used it on a full day shoot but the footage looks amazing and the camera performed flawless for 12hrs straight.

[@EldenEleSinema]

@ Perfect.what battery? Low light performance?

[@LeeZavitz]

@@EldenEleSinema I was using V mount on most of the shoot. But the one BP-U65 I have is this one: a.co/d/1DHJHDy in terms of lowlight I haven't done a lot of tests but it its pretty average for a Fullframe camera. If you've seen anything from a Pocket 6k FF it's the exact same.

[@semihkayikci]

Very handsome camera 🙂I would love to see some footage from your hands. Anyone you shared the license? I am candidate to get it😅
