Unrivaled Cinematic Prowess from Blackmagic Design
The Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 builds on the features of Blackmagic’s popular Pocket Cinema Camera 4K with enhanced resolution and unparalleled compact video performance. With expanded definition, the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K is now one of the most powerful compact digital film cameras on the market! The camera itself is solid, light, and easy to manage during extended shoots. A high-strength carbon composite body reinforced with carbon fibers gives the body rigidity and shock resistance without adding bulk, so you can safely take it anywhere without fear. A full-size Super 35 HDR sensor captures 6K images at up to 60 fps, while a large 5-inch touchscreen with touch focus tools, overlay monitoring, and more handles controls and monitoring. The Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 is ready to tackle any shooting scenario, including low light, thanks to enhanced dual native ISO with 13 stops and a massive 25,600 ISO ceiling. Audio options are equally robust; the camera has four built-in mics and additional inputs for external microphones via onboard 3.5mm and mini-XLR jacks. From shooting to monitoring and even audio, this is a true high-end camera designed for high-end work!

Super 35 sensor with Gen 5 color science
Like its 4K predecessor, this camera is built for action! However, the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 raises the stakes with a native resolution of 6144 x 3456 (versus the 4K Pocket Cinema’s resolution of 4096 x 2160). The Super 35 sensor allows shooting with a shallow depth of field and anamorphic lenses for ultra-vivid captures and rich visual detail. Part of this detail comes courtesy of Generation 5 color science as featured on the high-end URSA Mini Pro 12K camera; Gen 5 color science features a new dynamic 12-bit gamma curve that captures more color data from highlights and shadows, which makes for better-looking images and a film-like response to color adjustments.
Superior shooting simplified
Beyond 6K, the camera is streamlined and enhanced for professionals who need to work smarter — not harder. The Pocket Cinema Camera’s unique ergonomic grip is a big hit with Sweetwater videographers! The buttons are laid out perfectly for fast access to recording, still photos, ISO, shutter, aperture, white balance, and more, so you never have to miss a magic moment again. Should you want photos, the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 also offers 21.2-megapixel still-image shooting, saved as uncompressed DNG frames, which makes ordering professional prints a breeze! Moreover, this camera also comes with a full license for DaVinci Resolve Studio editing, color, visual effects, and audio post production, so you’re ready to make some movie magic right out of the box!
Ample audio options
Little cameras aren’t typically known for their audio capability, but the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 flips those expectations upside down with multiple ways to capture top-notch audio. The camera comes with four built-in microphones capable of true stereo imaging. These microphones have an extremely low noise floor and are shock and wind resistant, ideal for pumping out quick content. Advanced users will find plenty to love about this camera’s generous audio I/O. External mics can quickly be set up using a 3.5mm stereo jack or two mini XLR audio inputs. For fans of condenser microphones, the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K even offers +48v phantom power for juicing up your favorite mic. The camera also features a built-in speaker for fast, easy playback in the field and a 3.5mm headphone out for real-time monitoring audio.
Customize and expand with maximum modularity
The Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 packs a monster mix of I/O and customization options for getting the most out of your rig. When it comes to lenses, the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 uses Canon EF-style lenses. The camera’s lens mount is active, which means specific lenses will give you expanded controls (iris, focus, zoom, automatic metadata population, etc.) via buttons on the Pocket Cinema’s multifunction grip. The camera also offers an impressive selection of recording destinations. There are SD UHS-II and CFast card slots onboard, with the option to record straight to an external disk such as a hard drive or flash drive. Pro shooters will be glad to know the camera features a full-size HDMI output for monitoring and Bluetooth remote control — both features make this camera a stunning pick for solo operations like shooting content for social media!
