    "the next camera will be an entire haiku" 😂😂😂
  • People forget because they are so caught up in idiotic camera brand fights, that we are so so lucky to live in this day and age right now where we have access so many amazing cameras at such affordable prices and almost anyone now can make something that looks somewhat like the films and shows we all watch and have watched throughout our lives 💙🔥

    Great video as always guys! The blackmagic color science, especially with the gen 5 update is insane. Super good in low light too with that dual iso. I need to test this out!

    I have a BMPCC6K Pro rented right now and I love it. The interface and usability is by far the best I’ve ever used on any camera.
  • @thrumyeyesphoto
    Absolutely loving my 6k Pro. With the battery grip, it's a totally useable self-contained Cinema Camera that can be used handheld. Pretty incredible for the money.

    This is by far my favourite low cost cinema at the moment

    I have 2x4PKs and one P6K. This rev2 6K looks like a very nice upgrade. The EVF option, tilt screen, bonus mini-xlr port, and ND filters show that Blackmagic is listening to customers. This camera definitely performs outside its price range. Having said that, I've always had to fight a bit with it to get the color grade to do what I want. My C70, however, usually looks amazing with just the default Rec709 LUT. I know this Youtube video wasn't necessarily meant to show a great color grade on the 6Kr2, but I really don't like how the camera looks in many of the shots, especially in the night parking lot shots. When it cuts to the C70, it's night and day in terms of image quality. At 13:18, it does look very nice though. I also don't like how the extra battery grip is basically a clumsy fix for the horrible battery life. I wish they had just gone with a different battery. The C70 gets around 3 hours with just one of their small batteries that takes a fraction of the bulk of the P6Kr2 solution. In spite of my complaints, you can definitely shoot some very nice footage with it, and if you put in the time in the color, you can achieve excellent results. In my experience of using Canon, Sony, and Blackmagic mid-range cine cameras, I've always been the most pleased with Canon's color out of camera and achieved desired end results much quicker. It's definitely subjective of course, but even my old 5D3 video looks fantastic right out of camera (though with lower res and limited dynamic range). Blackmagic is still the hands down king of UI. Their menus destroy every other camera I have used. We are slowly starting to see other cameras move in their direction. Canon's C70 menu takes a few cues from BM, but has along way to go.

    Great Video Gene! My previous company of 18 years died with the pandemic, so I started watching your videos back in March last year and learned enough about videography to be able to help out struggling small businesses in my community with content. This camera was my 1st "real" camera moving away from an iPhone. I had the Mavic Mini, but it's currently on holiday 150 ft. at the bottom of Lake Cumberland so a new Mini 2 would be a great addition to my business
  • @Mvshootz
    00:45 😂 ... You’re a real one my guy, did the whole video again for us. We appreciate you

    Petting my regular 6K whispering “you’re enough”
  • Have been waiting for you to go over the 6K Pro. Really considering it as my first cinema cam and have been watching so much about it. Glad an update was released.
  • @thedecker1253
    I was shopping black magic cameras this morning, the price point is crazy! Glad to see the blog coming back too!!
  • Blackmagic's UI is really nice on their cameras, something completely underrated. So much nicer than wading through the MMO of menus in Sony/Canon/Nikon!
  • @dag221
    The Sam angry at the sea montage was too good.
  • @AltoProperty
    I just got one! Stoked thus far. Been shooting canon dslr. Definitely a few things to learn about on this new cam and it serves a great purpose. The dynamic range is great
  • @ShahRukhGhumman
    I've just started doing video work and loving it! This thing would take things at whole new level! 🔥
