The OG of the first BMD Pocket redesign, BMPCC 4K brought the lineup out of the HD landscape and into the world of 4K. So yeah, it’s just a cheaper 6K Pro without any NDs, right?
In a nutshell, it’s basically a 6K Pro without the ND filters and an LCD screen that may not have 1500 nits (we're still investigating). The second generation of the regular BMPCC 6K isn’t so much an upgrade, but a replacement to get the design language in line with the updates made by the 6K Pro. It’s got the uber-popular EF mount, internal NDs, a Super 35 CMOS sensor, and an optional viewfinder that’s received some love from the modding community.
It almost feels like an upgrade to the original BMCC 2.5K, if you look at BMD’s release history as a whole. The “flagship” Pocket camera of the lineup, the 6K Pro packs a mean punch in a tiny package. We’ll start at the top with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro and go down (or up depending on how you feel). Because sometimes, the biggest and baddest isn’t always the best choice. So let’s break down what’s currently being offered, and why you should get one over the other. The Australian company releases new cameras almost every year with either giant leaps, like the URSA Mini Pro 12K, or incremental baby steps, like the new BMPCC 6K G2.īut with the release of the latter, the BMD Pocket lineup has gotten a bit fussy. If Canon is the Microsoft of the camera world and Sony is Apple, would Blackmagic be Linux? Probably, especially with its super chill announcement vibe. With the new BMPCC 6K G2 just announced, the Pocket lineup is getting a bit confusing.
