Blackmagic BMPCC 6K VS BMPCC 4K Which LOOKS BETTER!?

Wanted to test out the New Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K and put it against the Blackmagic Pocket 4K to see if you can see any differences.

These are just some first impressions, I feel the dynamic range on the 6K is slightly better but this could also be the Speedbooster on the 4K that could degrade the quality so still testing that. Having the extra field of view on the 4K is nice, but 6K is crazy sharp so there's a trade off. Being able to adapt different mounts on the 4K is awesome, I like to use PL lenses and you can't do that with the 6K version. I plan to do a more in depth video once I play with it a bit more so stay tuned!

the detail when zoomed in at 3.5x on the 6k is exactly what i need for my wild style of music video editing

[ThisIsTechToday]

Wow, the 6K seems like a really nice step up! Maybe more contrast or saturation on the 6K? The extra details and sharpness are nice, especially for punching in or reframing. Both seem to be even on noise, yeah?

I can't believe the quality we're getting out of these little cameras. RED is dead ya'll.

The only thing that can make a 4K camera image look a little dull
Is a 6k camera

[dmitry_vancouver]

Very honest test. Clearly shows all pros and cons of both systems. Obviously clear that 6K BMPCC doesn't kill 4K BMPCC - it is still solid camera and it has much more flexibility for lenses. With 6K you stuck in Canon - EF or EF-S lenses or 100% compatible trough ring adapter. 6K has more details and shallower DOF. But you can only shoot BMRAW so you obligated to use resolve for anything. On 4K version you can easily go even to PL-mount. Edit with any of your software packages, and if you deliver mostly HD with occasional 4K I think 4K BMPCC is better buy.

Given that I blur my BMPCC 4k up to 2-3 times over its normal sharp point (otherwise it looks like video, instead of cinematic), I don't really care about 6k. Film was soft, 1080p-kind of soft. So if you're after an authentic film look (and not the sharp, documentary-style of Youtube), the bmpcc 4k is plenty enough to zoom and resize etc. No 6k needed. There's a reason why Alexa still rocks it at 3k res. Plus, I can mount a lot more lenses on the MFT (or any other mirrorless mount) than on EF. In fact, the smarter option would have been to go for the EF-M mount on the 6k, and provide an EF adapter too. This would allow proper PL support among many other lenses support. I don't have plans to upgrade to the 6k. Even when TVs would upgrade to 8k, most of my work would still be 4k, because I like the old, soft feel of classic Hollywood movies.

Been tempted to get the 4K for a while whoever I’m trying to justify the purchase Vs the film looks... Most of my work ends up on the internet and it seems that at that point 6K even if down sampled doesn’t make a whole lot of difference.
I actually like the fact that on the 4K version you gain full frame look like + 1 stop of light when using the metabones adapter. It is smaller and so are files. The fact that you have more recording options on the 4K version as of today makes me want to get 2 X4K for the price of 1 x 6K that has tons of drawbacks IMO. Plus I own several Lumix glass I want to want the 6K but all conclusions leads to the 4K version 😁

You can see the speedbooster’s effect of contrast loss, green skin tones, and haze problems.

[erwinmarionneaux]

Nice job! Everyone also remember that these are filmed outdoors so a lot of the comments about color and dynamic range may come from slight changes in the white balance and intensity of the sunlight between switching the cameras out.

[britishnomad]

Great video as usual Armando... Despite the hype in my opinion:

Pop a BMPCC specific Metabones XL 0.64 speedbooster on BMPCC 4K with a FullFrame lens and then you have a crop factor of 1.22 and more F stops. It would also improve the low light capabilities. I think if 6k video is a must have then I would go for BMPCC 6K otherwise in most of the factors BMPCC 4K still outshines the 6K bigger, bulkier, more battery & storage hungry sibling...😄😄

[MajorMotions]

I’m watching this on a iPhone trying to judge. LMAO FML

[FTGTapGod]

I'd love to see a comparison between the Pocket 4k and the Z Cam E2. I've compared them personally and, while both have a great image, I preferred the E2 from a usability/versatility standpoint. Also the E2 does 4k 10bit 160fps at 2:4:1 without cropping on the sensor.

Super killer camera and I'd love to see it show up in more comparisons. At $2000 it's incredible what you get.

[dunnadidit]

Damn! The difference was bigger than I thought. Interested to know how much of that is because of the speedbooster.

[Mafkillz]

unfair test, the lens used on the 6k camera is a sigma, the sharpest zoom lens ever, and you're using a canon EF lens with the 4k version, do a test with a sigma in both cameras :)

[OfTwoLands]

Nice video, 6K definitely looks to be sharper (which it should). 6K aside, having a camera that can shoot Prores internally in 4K with having a EF mount and S35 sensor for $2500 is pretty amazing already. Prores in 6K would be nice but for that price can't really complain. Keen to do some tests as well when I get my 6K and compare to my P4K. Cheers

[petbabyrammus]

I wish more channels just showed comparisons like you guys instead of chitchatting... GJ!

[freddumartin]

The 6K by a nice gap. It matches the quality you get from your EOS R + Atomos 10bit setup and C200. I just upgraded my computer to a 4K setup and I was (re)watching some of your video in 4K... Armando you're killing it, the image quality you are posting on YouTube is PHENOMENAL ! The video with the Ninja V to record your EOS R blew me away, I'm going to buy one (I'll sure do it through this affiliate link).
I sold recently my Sony stuff (A7iii and 6400) knowing that new gears were coming out from both Canon and Sony by the end of this year. I kept my EOS R because I think it is far superior (RESULTS, not spec sheet) than anything else existing, and it will be a fantastic B cam when a new better "R" camera will come.
After 18 months of working with Canon, Sony and Fuji (X-t3), I just don't understand how people who REALLY TRIED these brands are not making the same move to Canon that you did after your video with Gene (Potato Jet). I want to mention for the people who read this up to this point, that I started enthusiastic videography and photography only 2 years ago, I just don't give a sh*t about brands, and I knew nothing before I tried these enthusiastic cameras available now : there is no match for me... You, Potato Jet, Matti, Peter, Casey, ... are publishing the best quality videos on YouTube (and numbers are confirming it), they all shoot on ...

[khalidalraies]

The quality of these videos is amazing 🌹

[EliasLopez]

Amazing comparison vid as always Armando..!!! Can't wait for that BMPCC6K Vs C200 Video, and without that DPAF we know Canon has nothing on the P6K, But it'll be cool to watch!
