    "I wanna thank the sponsor WHICH IS MYSELF" the ultimate flex
  • @BasicFilmmaker
    Always great coverage. Love the sponsorship. You have a bazillion awesome camera courses over at your academy which is awesome. I know you put a lot of time into these, so they’re a super bargain. 👍

    I don’t have the money nor the need for either of these, but I want them lol
  • @13_cmi
    4K is plenty. It gives smaller files, easier on the computer, and it's more than enough for me. If they come out with a 4K pro I might go with that because built in nd filters and all that good stuff would be super handy
  • @1001Hobbies
    This video is so informative and so professionally done. I can imagine how impressive your guides are. You are surely one of the best people doing such videos on YouTube.
  • @cameramanced.
    Your a life saver, I was about to buy the 6K but I settled with the 4K because you pin pointed everything I needed to know about the two cameras thank you!
  • @EXORDIUM-3D
    Best comparison I've seen so far. I love that you talked calmly which makes the presentation clearer. One of the things I hate most about "content creators" is that they are super-hyped. I swear, I feel tired just by listening to them talk.
  • @joenicklo
    Just wanted to stop by and day that your courses are freaking amazing. I purchased the GH5 and the BMPCC courses and they're so easy to follow. You do an amazing job at explaining everything.
  • @BlaqcRain
    Best channel in the game right now on breaking products down and giving you the real on what you should get for budget prices
  • at 2:37 the story begins always great reviews ( thanks for the no music background) just the review I appreciate all the hard work you do to produce these
  • @colewithacam97
    Great video, Caleb. I just bought the BMPCC6k a couple of months ago and have barely scratched the surface of what this camera can do. Watching this video helped to assure me that I made a good purchase, but I just need to invest time into learning this BEAST! Haha. I'll check out some of your other content and your Academy to keep educating myself. Thanks for all you do for the video-shooter community!!
  • @FilmAshton
    I love when Caleb sponsors himself! It’s both awesome and hilarious!
  • thanks, Caleb, your videos are so informative and helpful, I really appreciate the clarity and fine points, I learn so much watching your videos
  • @variananora
    the video that i'm waiting for in the community! thanks for the explaination!
  • @beaustine6093
    Once you mentioned wider shots on the 4k with the speed booster, I was sold. Thank you. 🙏🏻
  • The color issue... I believe that the flat “yellow” look to the 4K is due largely to the speed booster. I’m not saying they are identical without the speed booster but WAY closer. At least the stuff I’ve gotten a chance to see that used both(friends projects) a skin tone test on the 4K with and without speedbooster would be awesome
  • @luxnatsoap
    I get such a kick out of watching your videos. Very informative. Thank you!
  • @KomuFrank
    This is such a great help. Definitely gets me a step closer in deciding what to buy. Thank you
