The back of the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K features a super bright, large 5 inch touchscreen. This makes it easy for you to frame shots and accurately focus, without having to carry around an external monitor or viewfinder. You get the same menus and interface found on URSA Mini cameras, including on screen overlays for recording parameters, status, histogram, focus and peaking indicators, and playback controls. In addition, you can apply 3D LUTs so you can monitor the shot with the desired color and look. Not only can you use the 3D LUT for monitoring, it can even be baked into the recorded footage. There’s even a speaker located near the screen, which makes it easy to quickly play back and review shots on set.

The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K uses the Canon EF lens mount, so you options for lenses are include full-on cinema style lenses or popular DSLR lenses.

When it comes to recording, the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K gives you 3 kinds of media to choose from. Images can be recorded on to fast UHS-II SD cards, CFast 2.0 cards or external SSD's. High definition video can be recorded using regular inexpensive SD cards. Higher performance UHS-II cards can be used for recording Ultra HD in ProRes at up to 60 frames per second and RAW at up to 30 frames per second. CFast cards can record 12-bit RAW at all supported frame rates. For longer recording times, you can also record directly to an external SSD or flash disk using the built in USB-C Expansion Port. Best of all, there’s nothing proprietary. The files will work with all professional post production software.

The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K uses standard removable LP-E6 type batteries. You also get a locking DC power connector so it can’t be accidentally disconnected in the middle of a shoot. The included 100 – 240 volt plug pack can be used to simultaneously power the camera and charge the LP-E6 battery. The USB-C Expansion Port accepts power so you can charge the battery from portable battery packs, a mobile phone charger or even your laptop computer. The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K gives you a wide range of flexible power options so you can shoot all day, although the battery life for an LP-E6 battery is about an hour.
