High Resolution Cinematic Digital Film Sensor
The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K features a native sensor resolution of 6144 x 3456. Whether you're shooting in bright sunlight or in almost no light at all,Feature 13 stops of dynamic range and dual native ISO up to 25,600 for stunning low noise images in all lighting conditions. Plus the 6K model's larger Super 35 sensor allows shooting with a shallow depth of field and anamorphic lenses. Let you shoot up to 60 fps in full resolution or 120 fps windowed. When you combine the sensor with the latest Blackmagic Generation 4 Color Science, you get the same imaging technology as our most expensive digital film cameras.
Shoot Incredible High Dynamic Range (HDR) images
The distance between the lightest and the darkest parts of an image is called dynamic range and is measured in stops. Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K and 6K both have an incredible 13 stops of dynamic range which means they preserve more detail in the lightest and darkest areas of an image than simple video cameras can. This allows you to set exposure for an indoor scene such as a cafe and still retain the details of bright outdoor light coming through a window. You even get more colors than the standard DCI P3 colorspace used for feature films. DaVinci Resolive Studio software is included with the camera, which means that you get total creative freedom with full exposure adjustiment and recovery controls when color grading
Dual Gain ISO for Exceptional Low Light Performance
In digital film ISO is a measurement of the image sensor's sensitivity to light. This means the higher the ISO number the more sensitivity to light so it's possible to shoot using natural light even at night! The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera features dual gain ISO up to 25,600, which means both the 4K and 6K models are optimized to minimize grain or noise in images, while maintaining the full dynamic range of the sensor. The native ISO of 400 is ideal for scenes with on-set lighting. The secondary high base ISO of 3200 is perfect when shooting in dimly lit environments. The gain is set automatically as you adjust the ISO setting on the camera, so it's easy to capture great images when you don't have time to set up lights.
