You actually can move the AF area by long pressing on the screen
Honestly, best review I've seen so far of this camera, many are either gushing at the RAW quality or complaining incessantly about the form factor and stopping at that. Yours is the most practical, objective and hands on view of it - again you two are the very best, keep it up peoples! Best video quality I've seen in your videos, wonder why you don't use it more often.
Nice to see a BlackMagic camera review that's in focus
The other difference on the 6K Pro from the G2 aside from built in NDs is the Screen Brightness. The G2 gets a tilty screen but it's brightness has not been boosted to levels that are as useable outdoors like the Pro model. So, if you are rigging anyways with an external bright monitor and NDs the G2 might make sense. Bringing just the camera the way it is made without more rigging, get the pro.

Excellent review that was badly needed. Thanks !
I just got the 6K Pro a bit ago and freaking **love** it. Amazing output, ND filters are fantastic and I've been able to finally pick up a set of cinema lenses (all of the Meike primes) and a Great Joy 50mm anamorphic lens. I'll be getting the 35mm Great Joy when it comes out, too. I bought the original BMPCC 4K not long after it was released, and still have it for a 2nd cam.
Just wrapped a feature on the 6k pro. Loved it! I look at this as a cinema camera and not run & gun camera.
Thank You for the review. I liked: it was informative, had nice amount of real footage and some humor also!
We have original 6k use specifically for green screen or interview setting. The BRaw or QT codecs just so easy to work with even in Premiere. Color is fantastic also. However I usually pick different camera for run and gun.

A fair assessment. I still have the BMPCC original, and part of why I love it is the entirety film-dedicated menu.
The black magic image does look absolutely gorgeous.
I had the 4K for half a year and really enjoyed using it. Of course I rigged it out with Speedbooster and vmount , Monitor ,etc. when I experienced dropping frames in recording when it was cold outside, I knew that I had to sell it ASAP. There was nothing wrong with it, just not a really robust camera to take out in the kind of environments I work in. I love the IQ and BRaW was simple enough to work with giving a pleasing result in the finishing touches. However, I use RED for most of my work these days. However, BMD really, particularly during our Pandemic, saved my backside for the one man multi camera production company days. All that switching and streaming was made easy. Back then I had 5 bmd cameras and all the gadgets to go with connecting it all. I digress, for the price, you cannot beat this camera. I love how accessible good IQ is to the average or new creator ! Also, regarding the EF mount comments: they may be discontinuing the EF but that doesn’t mean that there are millions of those lenses out there in all shapes and sizes, plus the adapting of m42 or other types of lenses ... don’t get me started! We have no excuses not to create beautiful images. Cheers for the upload ! Greetings from Norway 🇳🇴
FYI - BRAW files edit just fine in Premiere Pro if you install the free plugin from Blackmagic. The full version of Devinci Resolve is included with the camera anyway so you're covered either way. Surprised you didn't talk about the built in XLR audio input as standard. That's HUGE! Lastly, there's no IBIS as you said, but there is gyro data that Resolve can read in post to help stabilise the footage.
Can we please all ask Jordan to release the full video of the concert ?! I'm a noob in music but he seems pretty good and fast with the drums to me and he is so freaking enjoying it like at 5:38 or 6:58 ; would love to see a full version ! 😁
Used to read your reviews years ago. Nice to see you on YT, Just subbed
It cracks me up that 20 msec is now considered "intolerable" rolling shutter. I can still remember when the cool kids were rocking out with their 1Dx IIIs and C300 IIs at ~16.7 msec, and the rest of us were trying to convince ourselves that our A7-family cameras were tolerable at 30+. I agree with the bottom-line point that the BMPCC6K family aren't "run and gun" cameras, but if you're doing more conventional cinematography from a tripod then they're extremely strong cameras. You can't and shouldn't judge them by the standards of hybrids IMO. Pro tip: Check out the BlackMagic focus demand. It was designed for the Studio family, but works perfectly on the 6K. It occupies the USB port, which is a bummer for obvious reasons, but in exchange you get outstanding focus control.
BMPCC4K has tally light brightness adjustment, it should be in this version too. And the brightest level is pretty bright. Also - You can move AF area with long press on a screen. The AF is shitty, but it's needed to use focus rack function through Android software.

Thanks for the extra tips on AF area move, tally light adjustment and LCD brightness level. It's clear some of the bashing we get on cameras, esp. BMPCCs has to do with user experience. Some of the things they bemaon are already there and well.
Thank you for comparing the rolling shutter readout on this system. something I didn’t know
BMPCC6K G2 image quality is very close to high-end cinematic cameras like Arri cameras. But Panasonic GH6 or Fujifilm H2S image quality is like other normal digital non-cinematic cameras.

Where did you hear that it is close to the Arri Alexa? That sounds like a cope from someone who just bought one and is trying to justify the purchase. The reality is, the Blackmagic is a consumer camera (as indicated by the design and name that is meant to appeal to non-professionals) and is nowhere near close to the Arri or the Red. The Arri Alexa 35, for example, as 17 stops of dynamic range, compared to the Blackmagic's 13-14, which is not acceptable in the professional world. The Blackmagic is also pretty bad in low light.
Keep on drumming Jordan!!!!!!😀👍😀👍🌴🦜
Wish they remade the og pocket.
Excellent review. If you're shooting long-form formal docs (lots of interviews) this camera series is unbeatable. I do think the Pro is worth the extra money although fair game to BMD squeezing an extra model out of the machining for the body.
Thanks for the review. Questions... Is this camera great in low-light conditions, or not great? Another question... Your audio came through great. Was there a mic under your shirt or is the mic on the camera just that good? Thank you.
Love these guys.
I do want to point out that B-Raw inside of Premiere works great now. I personally own a BMPCC 4K and my employer has us use the 6k Pro.
Great review! Are you going to test the Z Cam anytime soon?

Thanks Jordan! I wonder how you feel about Pocket 6K versus Panasonic S5 with the BM Video Assist 5". Price wise they end up around the same bracket, so would love to hear your thoughts on that as an option. Also do you think Blackmagic Design might end up being the next member of the "L-Mount Alliance"?
Jordan, your lav cable is happy to see us 👀
When will you do the complete analysis of om-1?
As someone who’s been watching your channel for a long time: The Blackmagic portions look so much better than the gh6 footage (as did the S1H footage) to my eyes.
would be interesting to see how the new gyro stabilization update for blackmagic cameras works. for run and gun I feel the gyro stabilization (especially for standing handheld) is a big positive for this camera. (sony can do gyro stabilisation with catalyst browse, but that's far less convenient than using davnci resolve and stabilizing the footage in your edit)

Is the screen on the 6k G2 the same brightness as the original 6k or something in between the 6k and 6k pro?
Good video, how is the autofocus Does it has dual recording or livestreaming and recording internally
Thanks for a well made video!!
Great video! How would you compare the 6K FF and Pro against the 6K G2? I'm considering the 6K G2 over the other two, because the difference of the 6K Pro pretty much only is the built-in ND filter. The 6K FF is full-frame, which can be worth it, but not sure if that's a big leap worth the money. Currently have a rigged out BMPCC 4k (with ext battery, matte box and nd filters, ext monitor etc.) and I am also not sure if it is worth the upgrade to the 6k G2. The 6k G2 has a crazy deal of €1500 and if I sell the BMPCC 4k, it is only €400 extra for me to upgrade.. Thank you!
May I know which leofoto tripod you are using to shoot this video? Would you recommend the same for wildlife photo/video?
Beautiful. Can you record with G2 in Braw 4k dci in 24 and 60 frames? Thanks a lot
As an added bonus, you get a license for DaVinci Resolve Studio when you buy their hardware. That's $300 on top of everything.

Great review ! 👍You didn't try to be hokey, jokey, and pokey 👍The image quality on the 6K looks really cinematic -In particular, the flesh tones are superior to any of the hybrid cameras I have seen lately (Maybe not so much as compared to the S1H ?). I think I would go the route of the URSA mini Pro 12K instead of the weird body the 6K comes in.😳
1:57 is going to be a useful flange distance when LucAdapters releases the new G2 version of the Magic Booster, essentially turning the G2 into a (nearly) FF camera, just like the 6K before.
Its a video camera of course but can ik take 'raw' photo's as well? Like the bigggg tillable screen. Would be great for interior photography on a tripod
It seems that the wonderful quality images is what makes this camera special, and really, isn't that what good video is all about ? I'm looking forward to the next generation of BM cameras with mirrorless, with stabilization, smaller size, but keep the wondeful image quality.
Another Blackmagic camera announced today (2/23/2023) with the EF mount. Is there any hope they could use the Fuji XF mount?
Finally there is 1080p standard in camera screen resolution world. I hope soon all camera screen using that standard. 1080p = 2 mpx (RGB) = 6 mpx dot. Also I hope many more camera can record raw footage in the camera.
No internal NDs means better lens compatibility with a PL mount conversation. The Ursa broadcaster G2 also uses the 6K sensor but faster processing and you can put an EF/PL mount on it. So that's the step up if you don't want to have 80MP
Hey. Thanks for the review. What I'd like to see BM do, in order of priority, is: - mount with a more accommodating flange distance: I'm sticking with the BMPCC 4k with speedbooster so I can use my FD lenses, but I'd rather go straight in. Would be great if it had positive lock. But I know that is unlikely. - image quality (high iso noise) and rolling shutter improvements. I favour these over higher resolution, go back to 4k. - true full frame/Super35 sensor. I've had enough of camera companies claiming to have super35/full frame sensors when they just don't. i.e. BMPCC6K Sensor size = 23.10mm x 12.99mm. Super35 = 24.89mm x 18.66 - a body that is less of an odd shape. I'd sooner have a box, with a handle. But please BM don't lose the built in screen, it's excellent. - auto focus that's on par with Sony On another note, I'd say keep CFAST, because with sd cards users are VERY limited with choices for record formats.
I like this brutally honest take on black magic and agree with everything you said from praising the image quality to criticizing the ridiculous body design (and dumbass naming scheme black magic is sticking to). It’s to a point where black magic needs to pick a lane with a body redesign. They either need to build a better mirrorless body or go full box style camera. Because the current design is neither and is struggling with an identity crisis. It has the worst ergonomics of any mirrorless style camera on the market and sucks to rig out, unlike box style cameras. And this camera absolutely requires a complete build out to function anyway. You need to Mount an ssd, batteries, mics, etc. If they’re going to stick to horrible ergonomics, why not just make it a box like the countless cinema cameras out there. For example, I’d much rather rig out a zcam box than a bmcc. Hell that would be an amazing product imo, a red Komodo or zcam style mini box cinema camera for $2000 with decent mounting points. I’m sold.

Agree with all you've said, but the body design, despite appearing like a children's toy, is very comfortable and solid to hold and use, and the large screen is a God send compared to other smaller, sexier cameras. But again, Blackmagic should, in parallel, release different form factors including 'box' design preferably with internal space for one or two SSDs (seeing they're the go to option in the 'pocket' cameras) and an external monitor with cables / connector built into the mount, like their viewfinder, to eliminate cables dangling around..... but again, they should also keep the 'mirrorless' photo camera form factor too in my opinion.
I really appreciate your reviews. I am *SUBSCRIBED!* I want IBUS and excellent auto focus in a camera. I think a Sony Alpha a7S III is in my future. Have you reviewed it? (I'll search for it on this channel.) I love the levity. Keep it up.

There's been a funny amount of video-centric cameras over the last couple of years that have launched with CFast. I thought it was dead but it's definitely been revived! My theory with these newer cameras is that they do it because CFast uses SATA as opposed to PCI-E 3 like CFexpress, while available speeds are good enough.

The pro market is very conservative about adopting things that don't have concrete benefits, and the additional bandwidth simply isn't needed for compressed-RAW formats like BlackMagic Raw or ProRes Raw. The market will move if/when there's actually a requirement for more bandwidth, but until then backwards compatibility is more important. BlackMagic knows their customer and what they're doing here. I think their media choices make perfect sense.

6:20 I kind of recommend against an external recorder. The HDMI out on the thing is only 1080p so you'd lose a lot of flexibility in POST if you decide to use an external recorder.
In the $1500-$2500 price range, what is the best video capable camera for enthusiasts? The new Fujifilm? The OMD-1? A Sony APS-C?
How much expenses after i just buy the BMPCC6k body only ?
Yeah, I don't get why the GH6 doesn't support BRAW, at least externally. Well, the poll during a Lumix Live some time ago was heavily in favour of Apple, , but still. Also, why they are so slow with feature updates....
Blackmagic needs to bring back the Global Shutter, like in the old days. And I want to see a camera from them to compete with the RED Komodo. Global Shutter, same square body style and mirrorless or interchangable mount. That would be a massive hit!
The main advantage and maybe the only advantage of specialized videocameras is the intergraded multiple optical neutral density filters. ND filters are vital for videographers because beyond the triangle of shutterspeed-aperture-ISO there is the frame rate rate factor too which usually demands ND filters.

Hey there! Long-time viewer. When I got my first camera I watched this channel's video a lot. GO CANADA! As a narrative creator, the more I watch review videos the more I see certain patterns in the talking-points. All these concerns sound like the issues that people who shoot weddings and church services and NOT narrative or documentary. Maybe you can address that in some of your content in the future? For me a 'cinema camera' is for..., well.., content that is going to be seen on a big screen, or will look great on a big screen. The fact that a cinema camera can be used to shoot a 2-hour TEDx conference keynote is nice...., but that's not cinema. Most of the time it's overkill or used as a selling point to clients..., The P6K reminds me of a film camera which is a box with film in it and a lens stuck to it. It's the choice of film stock, the operator, and the color timer who make the magic happen. Shooting at max settings makes my work as a creator easier. Autofocus? H265 Recording Options? Rolling Shutter? Using a wide variety of photograph lenses for video? These features would have been welcome additions to the ENG and Studio Cameras from days gone by...., As a solo shooter, I don't feel like I'm missing anything by not having them. Showing an example of rolling shutter by panning a camera wildly in a scenario that doesn't call for it is kind of pointless, but the drummer was awesome! Maybe showing how the rolling shuitter effected the drummers moments would have been a better choice or sports, but then again who considers a cinema camera appropriate for sports????? I just want the best quality image possible in order to tell the story. Sometimes that is a Smartphone camera, a 360 Camera or a Rented Alexa. It would be great to see videos of other creators' workflows with the cinema cameras and does a particular camera benefit certain types of shooters or not. BM has excellent image quality at a great price, but most of the opinions and reviews are for commercial shooters IMO. One more thing..., Why are internal NDs such a big deal?? To me using internal NDs are like buying a Porsche and keeping the stock rims the car came with! and Mr. Drake...., we need MORE cowbell!
This is a solid camera.
Well, this video image looks more pleasant.
A workable AF and shooting "real" high quality stills are the two features I wanted from upcoming pocket cameras.

You guys have one and only intro humor sense man lololol.
Does this have auto focus option?
Get one of those Fujifilm X-H2S sensors on a new Blackmagic body asap!
Of course without the longer flang then it's a pain in the but for PL which is really what should be used for this and I wish blackmagic created a PL version.
The big advantage for me was that I already own like 20 EF lenses, so that investment is a good match, all things being equal - I wish Canon took a page from Nikon with lens mounts... seems like a waste to have to re-buy all your lenses or be stuck with adapters... I have many cameras, but I couldn't pass the G2 up when it was sub $1500 new... I recommend the Small Rig Cage for it with the wooden handles too!
It's not the camera for me, but I could see where this would be a good option for some people. The Pro model is definitely worth the extra cost for the ND filters. That X-H2S does sound mighty appealing. For me, I'm taking a hard look at the Canon R7 though. It's less expensive and still offers 10-bit recording with reliable autofocus and IBIS.
