New Camera Time: Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 6K (Patreon)

Hello again!

I'm running some tests on this new Blackmagic camera, and I wanted to give you a behind the scenes look.

There's two main reasons I bought this camera. The first reason is size and weight. This year, I plan to travel and collaborate with other YouTubers more than ever. Having a lightweight camera body makes that easy! But there's another big reason…

Low light performance. This camera boasts a dual native ISO (400 and 3200). Here's some samples below. Note, all samples were shot in 4K, but resized to around 1080p.

This is a shot from the normal setup—Blackmagic Design URSA Mini 4K at ISO 400, Film setting.

Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K at ISO 400, Film setting. Note how much brighter the image is, yet there's less visual noise.

This is a comparison—Pocket Cinema on the left and URSA on the right.

Here's a resized comparison (10x nearest neighbor). See how much less noise is on the left? The Pocket Cinema performs much better in low light! I can't wait to use it in a real shoot.

Stay tuned for the next episode! I'll use this camera to shoot it. Hoping it works!
