Your complaint about the ergonomics is very strange to me. I own the 6K pro and not once has this problem occurred to me. Picking up my camera after hearing you complain just to see where my left hand would naturally gravitate to I found my left hand automatically rested right on the snout. It feels perfectly fine and it's so strange to me that anyone can pick this camera up and be at a loss as to where to place their left hand but here we are. Very odd complaint imo edit: I used you're instead of your haha
Yessss! plus, now your arm is away from the weipu and usb-c connections. I got into a habit of looking down at my 6k to make sure I wasn't pressing against those connections. Now, I dont have that problem. "stay tuned for my next video, where I solve these problems I made up...links in the description"
@@bmefilms6879 Yeah the whole bump out idea made me laugh to myself. It's as if I'm watching a video by someone who has never held a small form factor camera before but I know that isn't the case. DSLR is in the name of the channel haha. Very weird to me
@@josephwoods354 I own the 6k Pro and was also suprise by what he said as it feels really comfortable and natural placing my hands under the snout. I was always advocating for the cube form when i had the og 6k, but after buying the 6k Pro and filming with it, i now prefer this form over the cube. The cube looks good and looks pro but this is much easier to de-rig from a gimbal and run and gun with.
Personally, I think this is the best camera out there. Image wise, it blows even more expensive cameras completely out of the water. Ergonomic-wise, you'll learn to work with it. I just use a Plong plate or some rods and the grip is fantastic! Great video, Caleb.
I've shot a bunch of videos with my 6k Pro and I disagree with pretty much your entire complaint department. Is the camera slightly big and clunky? For sure, but 'Awful' is pretty far fetched and over-dramatic. The camera is absolutely ridiculous quality for the money. 99% of people using it will be rigging it up with a follow focus or something similar. The whole 'palm' complaint is super strange and VERY specific to only you! :)
GOODNESS GRACIOUS, Why did it take this long for someone to make a review like this??!?!??! All I've seen are specs specs specs, we can all read specs, usability factors are crucial. Thank you for this Caleb, you're a gem buddy
honestly, We use the 6k as our studio camera and for talking head stuff, and use a C200 for run-and-gun with the dual pixel af. We'll probably get a 6k pro for a two-angle talking head setup. Fixed focus and it's on sticks so for that you really can't beat the quality, especially writing directly to an ssd. really comes down to being the right tool for the right job!
trust me the size and weight is not a deal breaker. if you want a affordable cine cam, buy this. you can build a rig using SmallRig parts to even the weight out
Honestly, I watch a lot of your videos. especially the old camera reviews, however, I must admit, this video kinda ticked me off a bit. It's like, no matter what camera manufacturers do, people will find something to complain about. No camera i perfect. NONE! This camera was designed for full production. Movies and high end commercials...not run and gun shooters. I mean, with everything BMD put into this camera, you still found something to complain about. I used this camera to shoot a commercial last Friday, and it was joy to work with compared to my other big massive cameras. DPs I know that are shooting FX shows and BET shows love this camera and can't praise it enough. Anyways, I guess to each it's own.
In fairness, if someone made a video and didn't put any negative critiques in it then people would be like "Oh you're probably getting paid by the camera company!!! Sellout!" So even if someone loves using a camera if they make a video review about it they kind of do have to find something negative to say just to seem balanced. Thats why so many people have to take time putting disclaimers in their videos ("This video is/isn't sponsored." "It's my opinion." So on and so forth). So while it may be true that no matter what camera manufacturers do, people will find something to complain about, the same thing could be said about video reviews. No matter what kind of review someone gives, viewers will find something to complain about. And I'm not saying this to get into a fight with you. Just that I kind of understand that it can be tricky to do these kinds of videos, especially if you say something negative about the product. But he just gave his opinion. I don't think he meant for it to be taken as the end-all-be-all review of this camera.
@@Chromedbustop I understand what you are saying, however, as user of that product, those complaints are non-void because I just shot an entire movie with that camera and do not agree with some part of his review. As I said, the camera is not a run and gun camera but yet, people use it as such them complain when they don't get the same result as run and gun DSLR cameras. That's what ticks me off. It is a production camera. Even Blackmagic as a company said it in all their videos. It is for movies, commercials and controlled environment. Not run and gun or vlogging. It ticks me off whenever people complain about things made for controlled environment with this camera. So it's not the review, is what he complained about.
It's now a couple of years later, and it's still hard to beat. Any thoughts on how the Pyxis line? It seems like a love it or hate it situation. A box is great for people who always build a rig, but they left out a few things like HDMI, so people who use things like a Ninja V will need to get a new display or add an adapter to their rig.
Man this camera doesn’t have disadvantages for 2500$. It’s cinema camera, so it counts to use with tripods, steadycams, rigs, extra batteries etc. Comparing with other cameras incorrectly
I have the 6k and 6k Pro. I was going to sell the 6k on eBay, BUT, being as the 6K Pro is SO MUCH heavier and larger, I will most likely keep both! I had to use a Small Rig double-handled cage to get my 6K Pro more usable.
I wish Blackmagic had released a hybrid 6k camera between the pocket series, micro series and ursa series. basically boxy like a Komodo. I hate how wide the pocket series is so long. it makes balancing on smaller gimbals so tricky but there isn't any other camera like it in its price range
I think ergonomics wise you're using it wrong. I dont think its meant to be used ENG style. I think its meant to be either sitting on a tripod or rigged up to how you need it to be for extra money. I think its meant to be a way to shoot amazing footage for cinema (not ENG) on an extremely low budget.
If you want on the go quality just get any 2022 flagship phone. Is it gonna be as good as a DSLR or Cinema cam. No. But they fit in your pocket and are pretty decent as long as you bring the right skillset
from what I understand, most cinematographer/videoographers/serious users of these pocket cameras will generally spend a bunch more money rigging them out to be actually useable anyway
And I thought the 4K was ergonomically awkward. I'm not sorry I switched over to Sony. Although the image out of the Pocket 6k Pro looks really really nice, it's not worth the headache of operation, at least not for me.
Hey Caleb can you send this video that you just made to black magic maybe they'll make them improve the next version I am looking forward to get a black magic camera I just don't want to get him back when you can always not the very useful I think I couldn't cope with RF lenses to this camera?
I truly, honest to fucking GOD- wish Canon, Nikon, Sony, RED, Panasonic, Fuji- every major camera manufacturer needs to just *COPY* is the pocket 4K/6K Pro’s *menus*. This isn’t my fav cam ever but their menu system and layout could NOT be easier. The UX mind you, not commenting on the touchscreen.
Hey Caleb! Loved this video. Gave it a thumbs up. I have a question for you, I was watching the new Bo Burnham Netflix comedy special “Inside” that he filmed alone in his house on the Panasonic S1H with lots of artistic projector lighting effects, I noticed he was using some aputure MC”s. Can you tell what projector he’s using? I would love to get into projector stuff like he’s doing in this special, do you have a video about video projectors for artistic video effects?
So if you don’t like how you have to hold the 6k Pro, you may want to consider another camera that feels more comfortable to hold?? I’m just making sure I follow you
My problem with blackmagic is that their products are specs amazing, but it looks like some dad from the 90’s designs the bodies. Kelly johnson creator of the SR-72 blackbird said that for a plane to fly nicely it has to look good to be aerodynamically good.
This is what happens when someone who doesn't make content that requires a Blackmagic camera has his opinions. It's an awesome bit of kit and we're lucky to have Blackmagic, without them we'd be at the mercy of red, arri et al. You need to use a GH5 or something, the cinema cameras aren't for you, they should be rigged/set up for shooting, either shoulder mount or tripod mount etc. When you rig any BMD up properly, it's just as easy to use as any other camera. Also, the ability to place this where other raw 6K cams won't go, is it's selling point. It can be rigged up to be red big, or broken down in a class of its own. You say the IQ is great but your footage is flat plant leaves. Show us how great you are and then your critique will be more valid. The clickbait will work with those not in the know though 👌
Man, you said all. Totally agreed. I've looking to buy this camera as first camera (not my first cam to handle, I have a job in a film company and we use to operate Sony and Canon cameras) and everyone that is saying tha BMPCC6PRO is not ergonomic, battery sucks is just trying to compare to A7SII or A7III. This fellas looks that can't see that for the price of an A7III you have 6K BRAW 50fps, ND filter Built In, full size HDMI, 2 mini XLR connector, one of the best color science for the price and false color inside camera too. I guess those guys that talk about "ergonomics, battery wont last" it's suffering for the past of the launch of pocket 4k. Ok was a disaster, but look to this beast that we have now, so much features for a small price in compare with cams withe same level of budget
But you gotta know that this guy has EXTENSIVELY tested the A7s3 and… trust me he does not call that a cine camera!! Watch his videos. I ended up choosing the ZCam because that is a solid bang for true Arri competition.
Caleb never even mentioned the a7s III in this video. He compared the 6K Pro to other cinema cameras like Panasonic, RED, Canon and Blackmagic’s other cameras, focusing primarily on ergos and build quality. The review was not even necessarily negative. It would seem to be only in your mind where the a7s III lives rent-free.
@@JonPaisthis dude’s comment made me think the same thing with your reply. Ergonomics are important with shooting video. That goes for any tool. If it isn’t nice to use, that’s a problem. And yea, didn’t mention anything about the A7III. Some people just grasp at straws
Sorry, but the handling "issue" you're going on about is so disingenuous that I felt compelled to comment. You put that Sigma 18-35mm on any of those cameras you got sitting on your desk and you got the same problem, although I don't even see the problem in resting your palm on the base of the lens instead of the side of the camera. I use this camera almost daily with that lens and I honestly don't see how it is awful. And taking a point away because the LCD tint issue was addressed in a firmware update and not perfect out of the box? Come on :) If I nitpicked to this degree every camera out there is awful.
YES! I dumped my awful ‘cube’ because the corners made my hands sore when using handheld, but half the users here praise the cubbies, while downing this as non-ergo!
It's because he's purchase a cinema camera and hasn't spent any time rigging it. He's a DSLR/Sony/PanaLeica shooter expecting something completely different to handle the same.
The first company to turn the ergonomics of these professional "DSLR's" into a traditional camcorder, while keeping the price point, will win big time.
@@andredemony XC cameras are old now. Of course they didn't have ProRes or 10bit. RAW is overrated anyway for RUclips content style stuff. Just give me a great 10-bit log with as much dynamic range as possible. I think C70 does it best with DGO sensor and CLOG2. Would love to see a FF C70 style camera from Canon with DGO.
@@jessejayphotography spot on - the XC line isn't exactly competitive in the space we're talking about, but ergonomics were perfect. I've been waiting for them or someone else to wake up to that, but I guess the closest thing has been the C70?
the biggest issue in modding this camera is that Blackmagic uses one giant pcb reaching inside the grip all the way out to the ports and top to bottom. Even if you rebody it and rotate everything around, at best you are left with the ursa mini forfactor.
I totally understand that the ergonomics are awful if you are trying to use it out of the box. That being said, if you rig it up and use it as a cinema camera, it is literally unbeatable for the price. I think even with the body style they chose, this camera really isn't meant to be used as a mirrorless or dslr style camera ergonomically. I really wish they just did a modular cube design like the Red Komodo, but I can get over that very easily due to price and image quality. I personally would 100% recommend this camera for people who plan on rigging it out. If you plan on using it out of the box, Id consider buying something else.
Nah saying this camera is not meant to be used like a mirror less camera is BS. I guarantee you 95 percent of people buying this camera will literally be using it that way. Also he already mentioned putting a cage onto it and it not fixing the issue.
this is for clicks. all these guys videos have taken a hit with views, This camera is so easy and fun to shoot with. lens, ir cut filter, battery grip and Go! I slap an ssd on top but you can use a Cfast card so you literally have no cables. most lenses will tip the camera so a manfrotto tripod plate is a must anyway. he picks up a c100...are you kidding me?
Ohh, I'm looking forward to the 3D printed fix! We use the non-pro 6k. Although I really like the ND filters built into the pro we will not be upgrading just yet. Great vid!
I shoot with this camera everyday. One thing that helps massively is running a baseplate with 15mm rods, vmount plate mounted horizonizontally off the back with mini vmount batts. That solves the power issue, helps distribute weight and the rods are a great place to put your hand while pulling focus.
So interesting because on Corey Robinson’s shootout video between the Sony FX3 & BMPCC 6k Pro, he says around 4:05 how the Ergonomics of the Pocket 6k Pro “feel sooo good” haha. The combination of both y’all’s videos tell me that I must get this camera.
Most people will throw a cage on the camera. Once you do that, a simple smallrig single rod will give you a place to rest your palm. You can also use a plate that extends out which most people throw under the camera for tripods…Problem solved. Not going to lie, this was kind of nitpicky compared to the other pocket reviews. Mentions of the plastic body when it’s actually more solid than the last ones. Idk. Anyway…love the camera.
Exactly this, you can't even use this camera on its own for the most part without any additional rigging. Sure you could use it as is as a DSLR camera cinematographer but cmon, this is a cinema camera. The red he showed had an additional handle and whatnot attached to it. Same could be in this case. You could get small rig or tilt a handles. Hell I don't even imagine using this camera handheld like he did with his hand under the lens. Are you kidding me? You're getting this camera to have your hand on the lens when adjusting focus? What happened to follow focuses or wireless focuses? There is no way this camera is getting rocked on its own like this unless it's going to be used by some amateur wedding photographers. This is not a run and gun camera and it never was advertised as. Sure it's called the pocket but it also says "CINEMA", which involves then modularity. You have to rig it.
@@RiderInRed then it's no longer pocket. Some people goes for portability and looking to keep the quality. Sometimes people like to work without dealing with much hassle
@@samuelsulaiman Yes, but cinema cameras are a whole different realm. it says pocket cinema, which in and of itself should already signify that this thing is not going to be portable or pocketable. If you dont want to deal with hassle and wanna go for a run and gun scenario, cinema cameras are simply not for you. Look at other cinema cameras and compare the size of BMPCC and you'll see that this thing is rather on the smaller side of the bunch
Kinda seems like you have a love/hate relationship with cinema cameras in general. I think like the sigma fp, this is a case of who is this camera for? If you’re a videographer or youtuber and you need a quick turnaround time, this may not be the best option. But if you’re an independent filmmaker and you’re looking for something that handles raw well and you’re working with a small crew, this is a viable option.
We use a pair of 6K Pro's for all our productions and a 6K for our RUclips content. Fair criticisms all around, but like you said towards the end, for what you're paying/getting in this camera, it's absolutely unparalleled. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
I’m glad to say that my 2 year old Lumix S1 just added an upgrade that made it a beast in 2021. 10bit true VLOG, 14 stops of dynamic range, 5.9k at 60 frames, anamorphic mode, full frame mirror less CMOS, and more. I paid 3400 with lens and all two years ago but it’s nice to know that Panasonic has it’s customers in mind and that the S1 is still very, very relevant two years later.
The BMPCC 4k, 6k and 6k Pro needs (can't emphasis this enough) a cage for best ergonomic effect. Using the same video you created for the 4k with a cage, rails, external battery and adding audio cables and SSD drive for recording you can have a beast of a video camera for under $3500
The camera is awful because you have trouble holding it and the screen colours may be slightly off but can be adjusted? All you need is a cage with rails and that will solve the issue, giving you a place to put your hand under, or even mount a follow focus too and grip onto that - its not an awful camera, it may just have a design thats unlike your other cameras.
God I want this camera so bad. Every time I hear someone break down the positives and ask if the negatives are worth it I don't even think twice when I say yes. If you are an aspiring filmmaker, you want the most features and control as possible on a budget. Rigs on cinema cameras are almost always a cumbersome mess of cables, antennae, operating equipment, and monitors anyway, and the majority of moving shots are still going to be on some sort of steadicam or or dolly system because the hand-held look doesn't apply. The value of this camera so outweighs the cost it's insane.
I went into a store last weekend to check this out. I found that my palm rested comfortably on the snout and I was able to focus the Canon zoom easily. Problem solved. The C70 didn't seem as comfortable to handle to me. I'm not a hand-holder in general, but found the 6kPro to be surprisingly comfortable and thought with a stabilized zoom...perhaps I would shoot more that way. And the carbon fiber body didn't feel cheap. I appreciated the weight.
its not bad ergonomics , people will just find anything to moan about. Like its not a big deal, its super comfortable. And for the price, you can't beat it
My team got this camera right when it came out. For the first few months without a rig, using it was almost impossible, it's ergonomics are really annoying. Once cages were finally being produced, getting it rigged up with a specific combo of handles really worked for me, and now it's a dream to shoot with. I don't have to touch the nasty plastic, and the cage's ergonomics are way better and help with the weight distribution. Since it was always our plan to rig it up, this worked great for us, though I have to agree I really with the camera was better without a cage. If you are planning or willing to cage this beast of a camera, I really don't think it can be beat for the price range it's incredible to work with RAW footage that's so high quality at this price point.
Seems like a well thought out review, but perhaps a bit biased. The lens on this camera is narrower and longer than the others, perhaps to exaggerate your point, but seems a bit dishonest. Sorry. Another error that’s not limited to this reviewer is the statement that this body is plastic. Not quite, but rather this body is carbon fiber. While carbon fiber is technically a composite plastic material, it is superior to ‘plastic’ and it is also superior to metal, so the inferiors are the ones on the table. This body flexes less than the others and is lighter as a result. Think Really Right Stuff, Ferrari, Corvette and on and on.
Hey what tripod are you holding up the 6K pro with ? I need a small little guy like that. Great video, I think the same thing. I have both 6Ks, The non-pro is way easier to move around.
Dude what a joke haha I have this camera and I have never thought this. Sure it's a funky shape but it's NEVER ruined a shot or stopped me from shooting something. Some people are such premadonna.
Thanks for this video. Quick question for you. I have a sony a7siii and I need a second camera for an additional angle. Its for a home studio for a youtube channel. I also just bought an Atem mini extreme iso. I have the choice of getting another sony camera of lesser value or a BMPCC like the 4k or 6k. Would would you suggest? Do you think the black magic could go well with the sony? Thank you!
I am glad you finish the video mentioning "3D Printed Parts" - you can make a super customised to your liking Grip and it probably will make it a dream to use! Excellent review!
I mean.... I can hold it the way he's talking about... maybe because I have large hands? Also, the reason why the battery life is so poor, is because you literally have a built in 5inch Monitor...eliminating the weight of having to have an external monitor.

I think I watched this video when it first came out but after having shot with the 6K Pro now since it was first released I have to say the complaints in this video just don't make sense to me. The snout is where I rest my hand and every position you described as "comfortable" on other cameras looks extremely uncomfortable to me. Your solution of adding the bump out I tried to imagine and I'm pretty sure you couldn't even reach the lens with a bump out. I have pretty average sized hands and resting my hand under the snout with the other hand on a the large grip feeds fantastic, especially compared to smaller camera bodies like the typical hybrid cameras. Then the color temperature shift is a non-issue that is a one time fix that takes maybe a minute to do, and my Blackmagic battery (3500mah) I did a test with and got over an hour of battery life. The 3rd party 2200mah or 2600mah will definitely not last as long though so I'm assuming you were using one of those. I also rarely shoot with the screen above maybe 20%-40% brightness because it's SO bright and indoors I'll turn it even lower, which helps with battery life. The 5 inch (super bright) screen is fantastic for solo shooting. Most cameras you definitely need an external monitor just to make them even usable but this is already built in and tilt-able for high and low angle shooting. Honestly its ergonomics make it one of the most fun cameras to shoot with in my opinion.
You don't need any "3D printed parts" or SOLDERING (?!?!) come on man, ahah! You just need to rig it a bit, or, as someone else suggested, to mount a longer plate to the bottom of it, if you really don't want to add anything (which doesn't really make a lot of sense for such a camera, to me).
Its not Giant, you have small hands are come from a generation of phone users.. Those of us that came for the Analog world into DV Really want these cameras to be larger and more Camera like. Go pick up a Real old School Camera and use it for a living.. :) then you will love the 6k pro and will no longer "hate" Remember its not a ENG camera. You are asking for a Cinema Camera to be an ENG camera. We do not want that. Love your Vids. !!! But you just have tiny hands :)
I....what? Cinema cameras aren't meant to be handheld. Like, ever. That's not what they're for. They're not SLRs. I feel like it's crazy to complain about the fact that it's not ergonomically perfect for....something it's not designed to do.
What a waste! I thought your channel kinda usefully but you only make videos for views. start with the clickbait title then 10 minutes you talk about the ergonomics of the camera. Guess what it's not a run and gun camera never meant to be. It's a budget cinema camera . 9 out 10 people would buy this camera for its image and price. Most dont go out and shoot handheld family videos with it. You should stick with dslrs only my friend.
It's been about two years since this video first uploaded and he still hasn't done a video where he makes a 3D printed attachment to improve the ergonomics of the camera 🤷♂️ wth
I don't disagree entirely but IMO I don't think it's THAT bad to shoot with. I've filmed 3-4 weddings with the 6K pro and plenty of other gigs. A few cage-less, with a neck strap, and a few completely rigged out. I find myself resting my palm on the rails positioned under the lens to pull focus and my right hand on the grip. I will be using the half-cage in the future though because I have smaller hands and holding onto the grip WITH the cage is pretty difficult. Let's all hope for a CUBE shaped BM camera in the near future. LOL
Well of course, and the updates to make the camera better have been a major plus side, just add in the extra battery pack and you have 3 batteries 1 interior and 2exterior in at once and can change batteries without having to stop recording (because of the interior battery), then just through on a cage or gimbal (with counter weight if needed) and you’re all set
"I hate this camera"
"I use this camera every day"
Your complaint about the ergonomics is very strange to me. I own the 6K pro and not once has this problem occurred to me.

@@bmefilms6879 Yeah the whole bump out idea made me laugh to myself. It's as if I'm watching a video by someone who has never held a small form factor camera before but I know that isn't the case. DSLR is in the name of the channel haha. Very weird to me

I was always advocating for the cube form when i had the og 6k, but after buying the 6k Pro and filming with it, i now prefer this form over the cube.

FINALLY! been checking every week or so to have you opinion on the BMPCC6K pro. Cant wait to see what 3D printed solution you come up with
honestly, We use the 6k as our studio camera and for talking head stuff, and use a C200 for run-and-gun with the dual pixel af. We'll probably get a 6k pro for a two-angle talking head setup. Fixed focus and it's on sticks so for that you really can't beat the quality, especially writing directly to an ssd. really comes down to being the right tool for the right job!
That is a great setup/use case for the cameras for sure.
trust me the size and weight is not a deal breaker. if you want a affordable cine cam, buy this. you can build a rig using SmallRig parts to even the weight out
I have a 3D printer and a 6k pro I shoot all day weddings on (handheld with steadxp or gimbal), eagerly waiting for the video and fix.
I'm glad you pointed out the ergonomics, most people ignore such things but it makes a huge difference when operating
Honestly, I watch a lot of your videos. especially the old camera reviews, however, I must admit, this video kinda ticked me off a bit.

And I'm not saying this to get into a fight with you. Just that I kind of understand that it can be tricky to do these kinds of videos, especially if you say something negative about the product. But he just gave his opinion. I don't think he meant for it to be taken as the end-all-be-all review of this camera.
@@Chromedbustop I understand what you are saying, however, as user of that product, those complaints are non-void because I just shot an entire movie with that camera and do not agree with some part of his review. As I said, the camera is not a run and gun camera but yet, people use it as such them complain when they don't get the same result as run and gun DSLR cameras. That's what ticks me off. It is a production camera. Even Blackmagic as a company said it in all their videos. It is for movies, commercials and controlled environment. Not run and gun or vlogging. It ticks me off whenever people complain about things made for controlled environment with this camera. So it's not the review, is what he complained about.
Have you posted the modification video yet? I was thinking of using 3d printed parts too!
Definitely not without its quirks but man what an image coming from this camera. Perfect companion to me URSA G2.
Just coming to the 6k pro, so thanks for the reviews. Have you got a link for the mini tripod and head that you use?
It's now a couple of years later, and it's still hard to beat. Any thoughts on how the Pyxis line? It seems like a love it or hate it situation. A box is great for people who always build a rig, but they left out a few things like HDMI, so people who use things like a Ninja V will need to get a new display or add an adapter to their rig.
Add some rails man, job done
Man this camera doesn’t have disadvantages for 2500$. It’s cinema camera, so it counts to use with tripods, steadycams, rigs, extra batteries etc.
Comparing with other cameras incorrectly
The things as problems you mentioned, It could fix with some tools. So I think it could be worth it.
If you are ever get sick of it and want to get rid of it you can send it my way!!!!😂😂. Love your channel and have learned a lot.
Great video! I own one as a second camera for interviews (so tripod and running AC power) and it's been perfect for that with the Samsung T5 drives.
Do you see the ND’s shifting colour? If yes is it bad and did you manage to correct it?
Super fun camera to use, the menus, the internal NDs, and then you get home and the footage is so nice 👌👌👌👌👌👌
While you are at it, .....could you print/make a bump with a focus pull mechanism?
I have the 6k and 6k Pro. I was going to sell the 6k on eBay, BUT, being as the 6K Pro is SO MUCH heavier and larger, I will most likely keep both! I had to use a Small Rig double-handled cage to get my 6K Pro more usable.
I wish Blackmagic had released a hybrid 6k camera between the pocket series, micro series and ursa series. basically boxy like a Komodo. I hate how wide the pocket series is so long. it makes balancing on smaller gimbals so tricky but there isn't any other camera like it in its price range
I think ergonomics wise you're using it wrong. I dont think its meant to be used ENG style. I think its meant to be either sitting on a tripod or rigged up to how you need it to be for extra money. I think its meant to be a way to shoot amazing footage for cinema (not ENG) on an extremely low budget.
Pls kindly give me a link to your lut for color grading. Thanks
Wow, the audio on your video is sooo good! What's the secret, haha?
If you want on the go quality just get any 2022 flagship phone. Is it gonna be as good as a DSLR or Cinema cam. No. But they fit in your pocket and are pretty decent as long as you bring the right skillset
from what I understand, most cinematographer/videoographers/serious users of these pocket cameras will generally spend a bunch more money rigging them out to be actually useable anyway
I like how your ending gets more and more dramatic, haha
Ha! That about sums it up!
And I thought the 4K was ergonomically awkward. I'm not sorry I switched over to Sony. Although the image out of the Pocket 6k Pro looks really really nice, it's not worth the headache of operation, at least not for me.
what did you use to film this video? thanks
Hey Caleb can you send this video that you just made to black magic maybe they'll make them improve the next version I am looking forward to get a black magic camera I just don't want to get him back when you can always not the very useful I think I couldn't cope with RF lenses to this camera?
I have the 4k..rigged up..super rigged up..was looking to buy the 6kpro..but who really needs 6k right now..I'm stick with my 4k..good review
I truly, honest to fucking GOD- wish Canon, Nikon, Sony, RED, Panasonic, Fuji- every major camera manufacturer needs to just *COPY* is the pocket 4K/6K Pro’s *menus*.
This isn’t my fav cam ever but their menu system and layout could NOT be easier. The UX mind you, not commenting on the touchscreen.
How did you grade the footage on this video? Was it a lut?
Hey Caleb! Loved this video. Gave it a thumbs up. I have a question for you, I was watching the new Bo Burnham Netflix comedy special “Inside” that he filmed alone in his house on the Panasonic S1H with lots of artistic projector lighting effects, I noticed he was using some aputure MC”s. Can you tell what projector he’s using? I would love to get into projector stuff like he’s doing in this special, do you have a video about video projectors for artistic video effects?
So if you don’t like how you have to hold the 6k Pro, you may want to consider another camera that feels more comfortable to hold?? I’m just making sure I follow you
Using your left wrist for one contact and left hand on the lens.
My problem with blackmagic is that their products are specs amazing, but it looks like some dad from the 90’s designs the bodies. Kelly johnson creator of the SR-72 blackbird said that for a plane to fly nicely it has to look good to be aerodynamically good.
COuldn't a cage or cheeseplate.and some kind of grip fill in that "bump" gap?
Do you think a strategically rigged baseplate battery could help, both as a battery booster and place for your left hand to rest?
This is what happens when someone who doesn't make content that requires a Blackmagic camera has his opinions.
It's an awesome bit of kit and we're lucky to have Blackmagic, without them we'd be at the mercy of red, arri et al.
You need to use a GH5 or something, the cinema cameras aren't for you, they should be rigged/set up for shooting, either shoulder mount or tripod mount etc. When you rig any BMD up properly, it's just as easy to use as any other camera.
Also, the ability to place this where other raw 6K cams won't go, is it's selling point. It can be rigged up to be red big, or broken down in a class of its own.
You say the IQ is great but your footage is flat plant leaves. Show us how great you are and then your critique will be more valid.
The clickbait will work with those not in the know though 👌
Built-in NDs - why aren't they doing this on SLRs?
The BM 6K Pro is designed around a DSLR, while most are designed around camcorders and film cameras.
Getting a little tired of RUclipsrs reviewing the Pocket line like they're supposed to be an a7S III
Man, you said all. Totally agreed. I've looking to buy this camera as first camera (not my first cam to handle, I have a job in a film company and we use to operate Sony and Canon cameras) and everyone that is saying tha BMPCC6PRO is not ergonomic, battery sucks is just trying to compare to A7SII or A7III. This fellas looks that can't see that for the price of an A7III you have 6K BRAW 50fps, ND filter Built In, full size HDMI, 2 mini XLR connector, one of the best color science for the price and false color inside camera too.
I guess those guys that talk about "ergonomics, battery wont last" it's suffering for the past of the launch of pocket 4k. Ok was a disaster, but look to this beast that we have now, so much features for a small price in compare with cams withe same level of budget
But you gotta know that this guy has EXTENSIVELY tested the A7s3 and… trust me he does not call that a cine camera!!
Watch his videos. I ended up choosing the ZCam because that is a solid bang for true Arri competition.
Caleb never even mentioned the a7s III in this video. He compared the 6K Pro to other cinema cameras like Panasonic, RED, Canon and Blackmagic’s other cameras, focusing primarily on ergos and build quality. The review was not even necessarily negative. It would seem to be only in your mind where the a7s III lives rent-free.
@@JonPaisthis dude’s comment made me think the same thing with your reply. Ergonomics are important with shooting video. That goes for any tool. If it isn’t nice to use, that’s a problem. And yea, didn’t mention anything about the A7III. Some people just grasp at straws
Sorry, but the handling "issue" you're going on about is so disingenuous that I felt compelled to comment. You put that Sigma 18-35mm on any of those cameras you got sitting on your desk and you got the same problem, although I don't even see the problem in resting your palm on the base of the lens instead of the side of the camera. I use this camera almost daily with that lens and I honestly don't see how it is awful. And taking a point away because the LCD tint issue was addressed in a firmware update and not perfect out of the box? Come on :) If I nitpicked to this degree every camera out there is awful.
YES! I dumped my awful ‘cube’ because the corners made my hands sore when using handheld, but half the users here praise the cubbies, while downing this as non-ergo!
You said exactly what I came here to say.
First world problems 🤦🏻♂️
It's because he's purchase a cinema camera and hasn't spent any time rigging it.
He's a DSLR/Sony/PanaLeica shooter expecting something completely different to handle the same.
Thank you for this comment, he spent way too long talking abt that needlessly
The first company to turn the ergonomics of these professional "DSLR's" into a traditional camcorder, while keeping the price point, will win big time.
Canon kinda did it with XC style cameras.
@@jessejayphotography yes, but where is the ProRes, Raw, 10bit?
@@andredemony XC cameras are old now. Of course they didn't have ProRes or 10bit.
RAW is overrated anyway for RUclips content style stuff. Just give me a great 10-bit log with as much dynamic range as possible. I think C70 does it best with DGO sensor and CLOG2. Would love to see a FF C70 style camera from Canon with DGO.
@@jessejayphotography spot on - the XC line isn't exactly competitive in the space we're talking about, but ergonomics were perfect. I've been waiting for them or someone else to wake up to that, but I guess the closest thing has been the C70?
the biggest issue in modding this camera is that Blackmagic uses one giant pcb reaching inside the grip all the way out to the ports and top to bottom. Even if you rebody it and rotate everything around, at best you are left with the ursa mini forfactor.
It's an amazing camera. I've been using it for 6 weeks and I love it. Your gripes are petty
I totally understand that the ergonomics are awful if you are trying to use it out of the box. That being said, if you rig it up and use it as a cinema camera, it is literally unbeatable for the price. I think even with the body style they chose, this camera really isn't meant to be used as a mirrorless or dslr style camera ergonomically. I really wish they just did a modular cube design like the Red Komodo, but I can get over that very easily due to price and image quality. I personally would 100% recommend this camera for people who plan on rigging it out. If you plan on using it out of the box, Id consider buying something else.
I'm 100% with you on that.
I agree with your statement, but id like to raise you the Z cam E2 S6... Which is a 6k S35 modular cube design for 2500$
@@kovafilms it’s lacking in some departments for me but that’s an awesome camera for sure!
Nah saying this camera is not meant to be used like a mirror less camera is BS. I guarantee you 95 percent of people buying this camera will literally be using it that way. Also he already mentioned putting a cage onto it and it not fixing the issue.
@@kovafilms great camera! Only issue for me is no internal raw. Personally I’d rather shoot on something that has it.
I solved this problem with a long manfrotto plate under the camera. I can rest my left hand on there and focus. Right hand is on the grip.
Was thinking something similar. 😄
Plus, the camera won't tip forward when placed on a table :) Solves all the issues right there. And all that for like 20 bucks!
this is for clicks. all these guys videos have taken a hit with views, This camera is so easy and fun to shoot with. lens, ir cut filter, battery grip and Go! I slap an ssd on top but you can use a Cfast card so you literally have no cables. most lenses will tip the camera so a manfrotto tripod plate is a must anyway. he picks up a c100...are you kidding me?
@@bmefilms6879 ‚All these guys videos taken a hit‘.
Sure man, 617K subs and 60M views is really poor.
LOL.
@@TheOneMonk haha, what are you the defender of the universe? breathe in deep dude, youre not getting paid off his views!
Ohh, I'm looking forward to the 3D printed fix! We use the non-pro 6k. Although I really like the ND filters built into the pro we will not be upgrading just yet. Great vid!
Thanks man! Yeah for indoor/RUclips use, the ND isn't a must have.
Hey David's here!
I shoot with this camera everyday. One thing that helps massively is running a baseplate with 15mm rods, vmount plate mounted horizonizontally off the back with mini vmount batts. That solves the power issue, helps distribute weight and the rods are a great place to put your hand while pulling focus.
Oh yess!!!! Cant wait. Please release that video asap Caleb. Best cliffhanger on youtube!
@@brandonmurray3629 ANY PICS
So interesting because on Corey Robinson’s shootout video between the Sony FX3 & BMPCC 6k Pro, he says around 4:05 how the Ergonomics of the Pocket 6k Pro “feel sooo good” haha. The combination of both y’all’s videos tell me that I must get this camera.
Most people will throw a cage on the camera. Once you do that, a simple smallrig single rod will give you a place to rest your palm. You can also use a plate that extends out which most people throw under the camera for tripods…Problem solved.
Not going to lie, this was kind of nitpicky compared to the other pocket reviews. Mentions of the plastic body when it’s actually more solid than the last ones. Idk.
Anyway…love the camera.
Exactly this, you can't even use this camera on its own for the most part without any additional rigging. Sure you could use it as is as a DSLR camera cinematographer but cmon, this is a cinema camera. The red he showed had an additional handle and whatnot attached to it. Same could be in this case. You could get small rig or tilt a handles. Hell I don't even imagine using this camera handheld like he did with his hand under the lens. Are you kidding me? You're getting this camera to have your hand on the lens when adjusting focus? What happened to follow focuses or wireless focuses? There is no way this camera is getting rocked on its own like this unless it's going to be used by some amateur wedding photographers. This is not a run and gun camera and it never was advertised as. Sure it's called the pocket but it also says "CINEMA", which involves then modularity. You have to rig it.
@@RiderInRed then it's no longer pocket. Some people goes for portability and looking to keep the quality. Sometimes people like to work without dealing with much hassle
@@samuelsulaiman Yes, but cinema cameras are a whole different realm. it says pocket cinema, which in and of itself should already signify that this thing is not going to be portable or pocketable. If you dont want to deal with hassle and wanna go for a run and gun scenario, cinema cameras are simply not for you. Look at other cinema cameras and compare the size of BMPCC and you'll see that this thing is rather on the smaller side of the bunch
Kinda seems like you have a love/hate relationship with cinema cameras in general. I think like the sigma fp, this is a case of who is this camera for?
If you’re a videographer or youtuber and you need a quick turnaround time, this may not be the best option.
But if you’re an independent filmmaker and you’re looking for something that handles raw well and you’re working with a small crew, this is a viable option.
We use a pair of 6K Pro's for all our productions and a 6K for our RUclips content. Fair criticisms all around, but like you said towards the end, for what you're paying/getting in this camera, it's absolutely unparalleled. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
Reminds me of my early days with my 4K 'Production' camera. The only production camera to have a battery that lasts 10 minutes! 😂
Those were dark times ha!
I’m glad to say that my 2 year old Lumix S1 just added an upgrade that made it a beast in 2021. 10bit true VLOG, 14 stops of dynamic range, 5.9k at 60 frames, anamorphic mode, full frame mirror less CMOS, and more. I paid 3400 with lens and all two years ago but it’s nice to know that Panasonic has it’s customers in mind and that the S1 is still very, very relevant two years later.
The BMPCC 4k, 6k and 6k Pro needs (can't emphasis this enough) a cage for best ergonomic effect. Using the same video you created for the 4k with a cage, rails, external battery and adding audio cables and SSD drive for recording you can have a beast of a video camera for under $3500
The camera is awful because you have trouble holding it and the screen colours may be slightly off but can be adjusted? All you need is a cage with rails and that will solve the issue, giving you a place to put your hand under, or even mount a follow focus too and grip onto that - its not an awful camera, it may just have a design thats unlike your other cameras.
Part 2 involves soldering? You SOB, I'm in!
Gonna say your set design with the C-stands at the back baller
Totally! A VIBE!
It's like the more civilized alternative to RGB tube lights
Thanks man! Love me some C-Stands!
Good breakdown! Looking forward to your solution!
The ‘oh no I can’t hold the camera’ thing is fucking bananas. You couldn’t fix it with cages??? You absolutely could, this is completely bonkers.
Couldnt agree more!
Totally agree.
Calebs point is that you have to fix things, which is annoying
Just add baseplate with carbon fiber rods and you are good to go :D
These typin hands want more... 😂 Definitely could do that.
God I want this camera so bad. Every time I hear someone break down the positives and ask if the negatives are worth it I don't even think twice when I say yes. If you are an aspiring filmmaker, you want the most features and control as possible on a budget. Rigs on cinema cameras are almost always a cumbersome mess of cables, antennae, operating equipment, and monitors anyway, and the majority of moving shots are still going to be on some sort of steadicam or or dolly system because the hand-held look doesn't apply. The value of this camera so outweighs the cost it's insane.
I went into a store last weekend to check this out. I found that my palm rested comfortably on the snout and I was able to focus the Canon zoom easily. Problem solved. The C70 didn't seem as comfortable to handle to me. I'm not a hand-holder in general, but found the 6kPro to be surprisingly comfortable and thought with a stabilized zoom...perhaps I would shoot more that way. And the carbon fiber body didn't feel cheap. I appreciated the weight.
its not bad ergonomics , people will just find anything to moan about. Like its not a big deal, its super comfortable. And for the price, you can't beat it
Exactly!! However I found that adding rails allow you to rest your hand on that rail which allows separation from your palm and the lens.
That's what I was thinking. Rails or a plate, screwing on the bottom.
My team got this camera right when it came out. For the first few months without a rig, using it was almost impossible, it's ergonomics are really annoying. Once cages were finally being produced, getting it rigged up with a specific combo of handles really worked for me, and now it's a dream to shoot with. I don't have to touch the nasty plastic, and the cage's ergonomics are way better and help with the weight distribution. Since it was always our plan to rig it up, this worked great for us, though I have to agree I really with the camera was better without a cage. If you are planning or willing to cage this beast of a camera, I really don't think it can be beat for the price range it's incredible to work with RAW footage that's so high quality at this price point.
CanI find these cage/rigs on Amazon/websites?? Pls do give the link, thank you!
Seems like a well thought out review, but perhaps a bit biased. The lens on this camera is narrower and longer than the others, perhaps to exaggerate your point, but seems a bit dishonest. Sorry.
Another error that’s not limited to this reviewer is the statement that this body is plastic. Not quite, but rather this body is carbon fiber. While carbon fiber is technically a composite plastic material, it is superior to ‘plastic’ and it is also superior to metal, so the inferiors are the ones on the table. This body flexes less than the others and is lighter as a result. Think Really Right Stuff, Ferrari, Corvette and on and on.
Hey what tripod are you holding up the 6K pro with ? I need a small little guy like that. Great video, I think the same thing. I have both 6Ks, The non-pro is way easier to move around.
Dude what a joke haha I have this camera and I have never thought this. Sure it's a funky shape but it's NEVER ruined a shot or stopped me from shooting something. Some people are such premadonna.
Thanks for this video.
Quick question for you. I have a sony a7siii and I need a second camera for an additional angle. Its for a home studio for a youtube channel. I also just bought an Atem mini extreme iso. I have the choice of getting another sony camera of lesser value or a BMPCC like the 4k or 6k. Would would you suggest? Do you think the black magic could go well with the sony? Thank you!
I am glad you finish the video mentioning "3D Printed Parts" - you can make a super customised to your liking Grip and it probably will make it a dream to use! Excellent review!
Hoping to buy this camera soon. Ergonomics my ass. I just want a beautiful image
I mean.... I can hold it the way he's talking about... maybe because I have large hands? Also, the reason why the battery life is so poor, is because you literally have a built in 5inch Monitor...eliminating the weight of having to have an external monitor.

Dude I love that your "awful" is because you have trouble holding it. Hilarious.
I think I watched this video when it first came out but after having shot with the 6K Pro now since it was first released I have to say the complaints in this video just don't make sense to me. The snout is where I rest my hand and every position you described as "comfortable" on other cameras looks extremely uncomfortable to me. Your solution of adding the bump out I tried to imagine and I'm pretty sure you couldn't even reach the lens with a bump out. I have pretty average sized hands and resting my hand under the snout with the other hand on a the large grip feeds fantastic, especially compared to smaller camera bodies like the typical hybrid cameras. Then the color temperature shift is a non-issue that is a one time fix that takes maybe a minute to do, and my Blackmagic battery (3500mah) I did a test with and got over an hour of battery life. The 3rd party 2200mah or 2600mah will definitely not last as long though so I'm assuming you were using one of those. I also rarely shoot with the screen above maybe 20%-40% brightness because it's SO bright and indoors I'll turn it even lower, which helps with battery life. The 5 inch (super bright) screen is fantastic for solo shooting. Most cameras you definitely need an external monitor just to make them even usable but this is already built in and tilt-able for high and low angle shooting. Honestly its ergonomics make it one of the most fun cameras to shoot with in my opinion.
Well…. It’s not a DSLR. It’s meant to be built out. A cinema camera. Not used like a photography camera.
You don't need any "3D printed parts" or SOLDERING (?!?!) come on man, ahah! You just need to rig it a bit, or, as someone else suggested, to mount a longer plate to the bottom of it, if you really don't want to add anything (which doesn't really make a lot of sense for such a camera, to me).
Its not Giant, you have small hands are come from a generation of phone users.. Those of us that came for the Analog world into DV Really want these cameras to be larger and more Camera like. Go pick up a Real old School Camera and use it for a living.. :) then you will love the 6k pro and will no longer "hate" Remember its not a ENG camera. You are asking for a Cinema Camera to be an ENG camera. We do not want that. Love your Vids. !!! But you just have tiny hands :)
I....what? Cinema cameras aren't meant to be handheld. Like, ever.
That's not what they're for. They're not SLRs. I feel like it's crazy to complain about the fact that it's not ergonomically perfect for....something it's not designed to do.
Awesome review! But what's that small tripod you got there??
What a waste! I thought your channel kinda usefully but you only make videos for views. start with the clickbait title then 10 minutes you talk about the ergonomics of the camera. Guess what it's not a run and gun camera never meant to be. It's a budget cinema camera . 9 out 10 people would buy this camera for its image and price. Most dont go out and shoot handheld family videos with it. You should stick with dslrs only my friend.
It's been about two years since this video first uploaded and he still hasn't done a video where he makes a 3D printed attachment to improve the ergonomics of the camera 🤷♂️ wth
I don't disagree entirely but IMO I don't think it's THAT bad to shoot with. I've filmed 3-4 weddings with the 6K pro and plenty of other gigs. A few cage-less, with a neck strap, and a few completely rigged out. I find myself resting my palm on the rails positioned under the lens to pull focus and my right hand on the grip. I will be using the half-cage in the future though because I have smaller hands and holding onto the grip WITH the cage is pretty difficult. Let's all hope for a CUBE shaped BM camera in the near future. LOL
Why would you buy this camera for weddings and out yourself through that lol
Well of course, and the updates to make the camera better have been a major plus side, just add in the extra battery pack and you have 3 batteries 1 interior and 2exterior in at once and can change batteries without having to stop recording (because of the interior battery), then just through on a cage or gimbal (with counter weight if needed) and you’re all set
I don't get it, why not make it a box cam ? Is there really anyone shooting a cine camera like it's a DSLR ?
Man, the click bait headline is so egregious you should spend time in prison for it.
(You may now refer to me as a “former viewer.”)
Rods with a follow focus solves this problem
Did he make a video about pimping out the camera with 3D Printed parts and (maybe) some soldering yet? I'm quiet interested in that (hint hint)
Your last two videos have been a one-two punch of reminding me how much I love my C100.
C100 forever!!!
Just got a c100 and love it.
Seems like a few things in life have this paradoxical imbalance. Some cars are amazing to drive and terrible to live with for example.
What is the “one serious problem “?
Waiting for a full frame version with 14+ stops of DNR lol
rig it up, that is a serious filmaker camera. i dont think thats a problem...
