Blackmagic Pocket 6K Pro + Samyang 35mm T1.5 Mk II

Pocket 6k Pro + Samyang 35mm Blackmagic camera

Features of Blackmagic  Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro

To surpass its previous achievement with the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K, Blackmagic Design adds an even more complete compact Super35 camera to its cinematic style lineup with the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro. The 6K Pro features all the recording, sensor, dynamic range, buttons and ports features like its predecessor, and adds a variety of important new features, such as a 5" tiltable HDR capacitive touchscreen LCD display with 1500 cd/m² brightness, an optional Pro EVF, integrated clear/2/4/6-stop ND filters, dual mini-XLR inputs, an accurate timecode clock, an NP-F570 L-series battery slot, and updated Gen 5 color technology.

With only a slightly larger form factor than the 6L, the 6K Pro records the same video resolutions of up to 50fps 6144 x 3456, and retains CANON's valuable active EF mount, allowing users to take advantage of the wide range of EF/EF-S-mount lenses available. The EF mount supports iris, autofocus and zoom functions via electronic communication when using compatible lenses.

The 6K Pro can turn a frame into two by cropping a second shot of a frame, scaling to 8K, or simply capturing rich, detailed footage with your favorite EF/EF-S mount lens. Updated Gen 5 internal color processing makes it easy to collate 6K Pro, 6K, and BMPCC 4K footage. Record using the CFast 2.0 and SD/UHS-II internal card slots or through the full-size HDMI port to an optional ATEM Mini switch for live streaming, or output via the USB Type-C port to capture longer clips to an external SSD. The 6K Pro includes a DaVinci Resolve Studio license and supports capturing Blackmagic raw from the sensor. Using the Raw format with sensor metadata simplifies editing to fit any project and makes editing with DaVinci Resolve easier.

The compact 6K Pro retains the familiar controls and menu design of the 6K model, such as up to 25,600 ISO support, 13 stops of dynamic range, and 1920 x 1080 HDR monitor output. Professional audio support now includes two mini XLR inputs with +48V phantom power, a 3.5mm stereo input, a mono speaker, a headphone jack, and an integrated stereo microphone system.

Additional professional features include lens metadata support, 3D LUT application for monitoring and recording, still image capture up to 21.2MP, and a multi-function grip that allows one-handed operation. Sync multiple cameras for a concert, event, or other multi-camera shots by connecting an external timecode generator to the 6K Pro internal timecode generator (accessed via the 3.5mm audio port). Then, save valuable time by using Resolve to automatically sync your multi-camera shots in the post.

In addition to the DaVinci Resolve Studio activation key, the 6K Pro comes with a 30W power supply that offers simultaneous battery charging, an MP-F570 battery, a lens port cap, and a camera strap. Optional accessories designed specifically for the 6K Pro include the BMPCC Pro EVF and BMPCC Pro Battery Grip, available separately.

Features of the Samyang 35mm T1.5 Mk II lens 

Using a multilayer coating process for uniform color reproduction from lens to lens, the Rokinon T1.5 Cine DS 35mm lens answers the challenge of assembling a set of lenses over time. The lens comes with CANON EF mount and features industry-standard geared focus and iris rings that share a common position with other Rokinon Cine DS lenses. To help focus extractors who have to work on both sides of the lens, aperture and focus scales are marked on both sides of the lens.

This 35mm lens produces a 63.1° angle of view when used with a full-frame sensor camera or a 35mm SLR. Hybrid aspherical lenses deliver sharply defined images with minimal distortion and chromatic aberrations, with a minimum focusing distance of just under 12" from the lens. A petal-shaped removable lens hood provides flare protection when shooting without a matte case, the lenses are threaded to the front accepts a 77mm filter ring.

Please note that some cameras may require the shutter lock to be disabled when using this lens.

• Ultra Multi Coated lenses minimize flare and ghosting, and lens colors match a standard, eliminating the need to purchase a full set of lenses at the same time.
• Industry standard gear for focus and aperture rings. Each lens in the Rokinon DS series shares common focus positions and iris gear ring, speeding up lens changes as there is no need to reposition accessories such as tracking focus units or iris motors.
• "No click" aperture ring for soft pulls of the iris.
• A minimum focusing distance of 12" allows you to get closer to your subject.
• A removable petal-type lens hood provides flare protection without a matte case.
• The lens opens up to T1.5, giving you the ability to shoot in low light or create an extremely shallow depth of field.
