My Top CINEMATIC Moments Shot on Blackmagic 6k Full Frame 2024

This is a montage of my top moments captured since owning the the Blackmagic 6k Full Frame (L Mount).
Featuring lenses such as:
DZOFILM Catta L Mount 35-80mm T2.9
Blazar Remus Lens set (45mm, 65mm, 100mm)
I have outlined the compression settings and record settings so you can all contrast how they affect the image.
This video is comprised of work and not test footage.
Extra Thoughts:
I think you can really see the difference when you look at what lenses each piece of work was shot on. The DZOFILM lens is very cinematic and as I start using photography lenses, it starts to be overall sharper and I would say less “cinematic”.

I recently got a Blackmagic 6K full-frame camera, and I'm looking for some advice on choosing a lens for shooting cinematic films. My goal is to find a lens that offers high-quality performance, especially for versatile shots, but I'm also mindful of my budget. Thank you so much for your help! .

Looks beautiful ❤️

Thanks for the inspiration! I have a Cinema 6k as well. Great job 👏🏽

[@liamamani]

👏👏👏 phenomenal footage as always. Truely inspiring

hi, i love those shots!! are those clips handheld or are you using a gimbal (i see some shots with tripod, but the others?) The shots with the catta 35-80mm, is that handheld or some kind of other rig, because it is nicely stabelized.

[@corryraymondfilms]

It’s a mix! The shots where the camera rushes past or does a 180 on the subject, that’s a gimbal. Shots which are static are all on a tripod. The ones on the pier however were handheld, literally the palms of my hand, and I was able to stabilise it to appear like it was on a tripod. The Catta is a really heavy lens, so that’s either on a tripod or on a shoulder rig with two handle grips which I am holding onto

do U have noise with this camera?

[@corryraymondfilms]

Yes it’s very noisy

[@carlos.sierra]

Can you explain why you used each different compression level? Do you usually stick to certain ones? I saw you use 12:1 a lot.

[@corryraymondfilms]

So Q is going to prioritise quality. When I’m shooting 12:1, it’s normally because I need the drive space and the project doesn’t need to be at a high bitrate, for instance, because it’s on KZbin. I bring out the Q compression when the project’s life is going to go beyond KZbin for instance

[@carlos.sierra]

@@corryraymondfilms okay, I was wondering what your thoughts were because I never know which compression rate/type makes sense to use.

[@corryraymondfilms]

I know what you mean. The Q ones are the best. I would recommend using the Qs and only use the 12:1 if you need the card space and the end client is like KZbin and can afford to be heavily compressed. It does make a big difference in the quality of the shadows shooting on 12:1/Q5 when compared to Q0,1,3

[@carlos.sierra]

@@corryraymondfilms okay, thank you. So you personally pretty much only use constant bit rate (CBR) when you know you’re going to use 12:1? Otherwise, you’re just using constant quality C.Q.? Are there any use cases for 8:1, 5:1, or 3:1?

[@corryraymondfilms]

Cases for 8:1, 3:1… I personally haven’t found one. The Q is really useful for getting high quality images, especially Q0 as it is the lowest compression you can get (although it’s still compressed) and Q is very reliable for card space. 3:1 is going to be less than Q0, Q1 and sometimes it’s going to be more quality than is necessary and sometimes it’s going to be less than needed. However, Q really takes care of that. 12:1 vs 8:1 I have noticed a difference in the shadows, so 8:1 doesn’t mess with the blacks like 12:1 does. Q5 I have also found to have purple hues in the blacks, when compared to the higher resolutions. Hope that helps you decide what to shoot with
