Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2

Pro Power in Your Palm

This small wonder brings big-movie quality to small-crew shoots. It packs a 6K punch in a grab-and-go body.

Why It Stands Out

TALKS TO YOUR LENSES

Active EF mount controls Canon glass for focus and iris settings

BIG PIXELS, SMALL BOX

Shoots 6K video in a body not much bigger than a still camera

REAL PRO AUDIO

Mini XLR plugs mean you can use real mics for top-notch sound

RECORD TO HARD DRIVES

USB-C port lets you save to cheap SSD drives instead of pricey cards

Who Uses It

Indie filmmakers love this box for its small size and significant image. YouTube creators, doc makers, and small ad teams grab it when they need pro looks without the bulk. Film students pick it up as the first cinema camera that won't break the bank.

Bottom Line

The G2 model brings key updates, like the active lens mount, that make life easier. For the money, you won't find many 6K cameras that pack this much punch. While it lacks some bells on pricier rigs, the images stand tall next to boxes costing far more. This pocket beast delivers the goods without emptying your wallet for small crews with big dreams.
