Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K (Full-frame)

[Gear Rumors Admin]

Blackmagic has granted many people's wishes and has launched a full frame camera. However, they did not grant the wish of a different, more box-like form factor as the body remains relatively the same as its predecessors.

Key specifications:

• Full-Frame 6K sensor
• 6K36fps open gate
• 4K Anamorphic mode
• Active Leica L Mount
• OLPF Filter
• 13 Stops of dynamic range (this may be conservative or other factors may contribute to a superior image as compared to mirrorless cameras with 13+ stops of dynamic range_
• Dual 400/3200 native ISOs
• 5" Tilting LCD touchscreen with high brightness
• CFexpress type-B singe card slot
• HDMI, USB-C, 2 x Mini-XLR Audio Ports
• $2600USD

More information can be found at Blackmagic's website.

With some luck this will push the price of the previous, crop sensor 6K models, either new or used.

I have had a chance to use this camera and there is something special about it. It's not the best cinema camera. But it's 100% the best for the price. The image is outstanding. The ergonomics are so-so. If image quality is what you value most and you're on budget then your questions and prayers are answered.
