@1337kakash1 3 года назад

Some people say it doesn't do well in low light but, the camera does if you use the false color and shoot at 1250 iso. At least for me. At 1250 I have been able to record footage at night with little to no noise. Though this is with the pocket 4k, I'd imagine the 6k can do the same if not better.

The only problem I have with the black magic cameras is that when is out of warranty there’s no parts for it so you literally have to get a new camera. When it decides not the power on anymore. Black magic does not make any replacement parts for any of the cameras

@klatchabobby 3 года назад

So? Just send it to them and they'll fix it themselves.

@landolakes 3 года назад

When it's out of warranty, you can still send it in for repair. I cracked my screen and they fixed it for a very reasonable price. My friend fried his HDMI port and they also fixed his outside of warranty.

@SvetlinTomanov 3 года назад

I've used Sony for as long as I can remember and last year I had to film a documentary with the Pocket 4K. It surely is a different beast and comes with its limitations, but the picture it produces, oh man, it's incredible. I probably won't just to BM anytime soon, and I'm gonna stick with Sony, but for story driven content, the Pocket brings out the best of most cinematographers in my opinion. Great video, Ryan! Keep them coming!

Nice build Ryan!! I recently picked up the BMPCC 6K. I edit in Premier and downloaded the plugin for BRAW. I experimented with some BRAW 6K shots and they looked very grainy compared to the pro res 4K. Does editing BRAW in Resolve make a difference compared to Premier?

@ykchew4793 2 года назад

Raw footages are generally grainier than compressed codec like prores. Editing in Resolve or Premiere would mostly differ in its workflow, not so much on quality. But definitely it is much easier to edit BRAW in Resolve

I do wish I didn't buy the battery grip waste of money.
