Blackmagic Design brings next-gen digital film capture to the masses with their new Cinema Camera 6K. Based around a full-frame 6K sensor and an active Leica L lens mount, this high-end camera features rich colors, accurate skin tones, a wide 13-stop dynamic range, and a built-in OLPF filter (optical low pass) that is tailored specifically to the massive 24 x 35mm sensor. ENG users and other on-the-go shooters will appreciate the ability to record both deep bit-depth Blackmagic Raw and H.264 proxies simultaneously to Blackmagic Cloud. The Cinema Camera 6K takes a step up from the Pocket Cinema Camera line but handily retains the ability to use all the existing PCC accessories.
- A massive full-frame sensor with a native resolution of 6048 x 4032 enables you to shoot with a shallow depth of field and to use anamorphic lenses uncropped for a truly cinematic look.
- The sensor's 13 stops of dynamic range with dual native 400 and 3200 ISOs extending up to 25,600 provide stunning, low-noise images in all lighting conditions, including bright sunlight and very low light levels.
- The Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K's full-frame sensor provides the ability to work in a variety of film formats and aspect ratios without sacrificing quality.
- Using the full area of the sensor gives you a unique open-gate 3:2 image, which also enables you to reframe your shots in post-production.
- The large sensor enables true 6:5 anamorphic without cropping, producing detailed, cinematic widescreen images in higher resolutions than previously possible.
- Use the classic Super35-sized window on the sensor to create an instant close-up of your shot that fits seamlessly with open gate footage.
Advanced Leica L Mount
- The Leica L lens mount accommodates the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K's full-frame sensor while ensuring compatibility with both new and vintage lenses. With a large diameter of 51.6mm, the L mount is compatible with the latest full-frame lenses from manufacturers like Leica, Panasonic, and Sigma.
- Its very short flange distance of only 20mm means you can easily add Canon EF, ARRI PL, and other adapters for a variety of lens mounts without impacting image quality.
- The separately available EF adapter enables lens control and data transfer for compatible lenses.
