I Love this BMPCC 4k Rig | Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k

[@bigdandvip]

I am so glad you broke this down. I follow you on Instagram as well and was blown away when you showed this beautiful rig. I must get mine rigged up like this. PEACE FAMILY!

[@dylanbaer4262]

Thank you SOOOO much for this video!! I needed it so much! I have the BMPCC4K and this is like THE PERFECT RIG!! Thanks man!

[@ElijahTichborne]

volume level much better. great video

[@bwashmedia]

Thanks had to fix it.

[@Adejavufilm]

Very very dope Rig and video I appreciate your content and the information provided in there, my question is how do you prevent ground loop when plugging your monitor in the V Mount battery and not burning up the HDMI port

[@dbalwani]

Nice rig and great explanation. Is there specific reason that you are using NP-F battery in the video but mention powering it via V-Mount or V-mount plate? I have heard horror stories of people burning out their HDMI port when powered by same V-mount battery both camera and monitor?

[@McDoogMedia]

Sharp looking set up!!

[@MovieWhisperer]

*We can solve wobbling between speedbooster and camera mount with adaper support, but Is it reasonable to spend a bit more buying Metabones T CINE Speed Booster XL 0.64x with locking mechanism (to avoid any wobbling between heavy lenses, such as Xeen and the speedbooster) over the regular version?*

[@seanhynesdirector]

EF lenses have a higher compatibility with most flange distances so safer to get EF even if only using Sony E mount or other camera mounting options.

[@joaomestre2584]

Hey! Thanks for the video. Isn't that Xeen lens a PL Mount? You simply plug it into the metabones speedbooster?

[@KONDORBLUE]

Great vid! Awesome to see you using our gear!

[@zacktowner]

I see that 2-5 filter comes with the kit on B&H. But where did you get the other 6-9 ND filter from? I can't find them anywhere.

[@bklounge78]

Love the intro man! good job

[@thomaszamolo]

Nice rig! One question: I see in the b-roll footage that you are powering your ninja with the v mount battery. Could you let me know what is the best fact cable you’re using? Tired of all those batteries on the camera and would love to find a better solution with only one battery powering everything on my rig. Thanks in advance...

[@grantrobinmedia]

I LOVE this rig. Looks so sick. One question: how much does not being able to access the menu system easily affect you on shoots? I would imagine you have most of your essentials programmed to function buttons, but I’m sure it’s still a pain. Do you have a work around for that?

[@MiguelReyes-sx1vs]

Grant Robin I use the app on my phone this way I don’t have to look at the screen

[@grantrobinmedia]

Miguel Reyes oh cool! I didn’t know there was an app. The app in pretty easy to use? I’m looking into possibly getting the bmpcc 6k so I wanna ha e my head wrapped around it before I purchase it

[@zackketz]

You can also mod the monitor to pop out & tilt. Tilta offers the DIY mod or you mail in the cam so they can do it for a fee.

[@2gunzfilms425]

honestly I never even bother with the screen beyond initial setup. I use Cine DS lenses for all my aperture settings and the ISO button is there along with a wheel. Most of the stuff you want to do can be done with the buttons and the scroll wheel, and it's actually quicker in most cases than trying to use the screen for it. A great workaround to that though, instead of buying an Atomos or Smallrig monitor, just get the Blackmagic monitor. you'll retain touch screen function in your external monitor. Also as some say, you can always just use the app. It works just as effectively.

[@wolffpv535]

Are you using an IR filter?

[@michaelruebusch2275]

Pretty sick setup, but how do you move between camera menus with the battery in the way?

[@user-nu8bf3bf9m]

I really need you to go over where you connect all your cables to! I think its combinations of Dtap-BMPCC4k, Dtap-Nucleus nano. but where do you connect the cable from atomos ninja V using Kondour Blue cable?

[@larryd.johnsonjr.4847]

Have you ever delt with a cinema lens shifting when using a wireless follow focus on the bmpcc pockets and if so how did you fix it? I have a 6k pro

[@RedBellyMedia]

best way to fix this is use a matte box that clamps onto the lens. you can then use a lens support mount connected to the rails and into the matte box. this holds the lens in place.

[@GuillePozzi]

I love TENBA's Cineluxe Backpack 24" or 21" hightop to fit my rig fully rigged in a backpack

[@JimmyBlanco]

Do you Get IR pollution from the Polar Pro ND's?

[@finality4795]

Gotta love cameras with internal ND filters, don't have to walk around with a matte box everywhere

[@anderson7308]

Hi, Good video. have you seen the xeen lens link? on amazon it appears for less than half the price of the others, do you know why? thank you

[@bwashmedia]

It should be 1495 brand new. There are different prices for different focal lengths.

[@manykzofficial8111]

where we can see your music videos shot with it?

[@imetvnj]

Thanks!!!!

[@Matsumoto_E.O.]

Awesome review bro! Real quick, what do you do when you want to use another filter such as, for example, the black pro mist? Polar Pro Base Camp is proprietary hardware so it's not possible to add other filters other than the variable Polar NDs right?

[@bwashmedia]

That is my current number 1 issue with this system. Looking for a solution

Trying to decide between BMPC 6k and Full Frame z cam 6k - any advice ? Cheers!

[@bwashmedia]

I’m waiting to get pro res raw and control of the camera on the ninja v which should be coming soon. Then I’ll test it out and make a decision.

[@rh6626]

Watch Gerald Undone and Tom Antos reviews on Z cam 6k. If you want to shoot raw, there appears to be issues with zcam, whereas Braw is excellent (I have BMPCC6k - very happy). If you want to shoot pro res and want full frame, Zcam (raw may improve with firmware updates over time - I have no personal experience with z cam). Where both cameras seem to be excellent 'budget' (relative) offerings, each come with certain trade-offs. It depends on your requirements and workflow, really...

[@SHVideografie]

The music was way too loud in the beginning bro, and then I had to adjust the volume again when you were speaking. That being said: Awesome Rig!

[@Goriza]

[@frankiefilms4142]

how do you change the camera settings with the v mount battery blocking the screen?

[@bwashmedia]

Most of the buttons needed to make changes are on the front of the camera. ISO WB are on the front handle. And any big changes I do before slapping the battery in the way.

[@frankiefilms4142]

@@bwashmedia yeah makes sense but i have a photo lens, so the only way to know what aperture I'm on is through the camera screen, but I guess you don't have that problem with the xeen

@@bwashmedia That's why you should try (rent) them. 😉 Solid construction, sharp even wide open, smaller, lighter, don't need to mess with speedbooster, work great with follow-focus and you can buy a set for less than one Xeen.

You're not supposed to power the Nano Hand wheel from the usb port, only using the 14500 batteries. It can damage it. At the bottom of the page: tilta.com/shop/nucleus-nano-wireless-lens-control-system/

That's a sick setup! But, damn... I don't even want to know how much that costs :(

Xeen: $1500. BMPC4k: $1300. Ninja: $600. Metabones: $650. Cage: $200. FF: $200. Battery: $200. Makes no sense to put a $650 Metabones in front of a $1500 lens, when for the same price of EF BMPC6K at $2000 will have a no adapter to the Xeen lens. And despite all of this, there's no, no IBIS.

Like your rig bro! With ninja V, that ProRes raw recording is in 1080 and not 4K right? I ask because the bmpcc4k does not export anything higher than 1080p60 externally through hdmi.

You can't shoot BRAW in $k on the P6K, that's a factor to consider

@@charlieitravers4776 you absolutely can shoot BRAW on the p6k. idk where you heard that.

[@baqcasanke]

I prefer the pocket4k over the 6k. I dont want to shoot 6k all the time. My comp cant handle it well and theres no need all the time. When shooting lower res it simply crops in on sensor instead of resampling. Not a fan of that. Also the 6k has terrible rolling shutter. Imo the rolling shutter makes it unable. I watched someone getting a dolly shot on a onewheel and the vertical pillars of the parking deck were angled at like 30degrees because of the rolling shutter. Not very cinematic
