How does this dude only have 1.5K Subs? Your productions value is very high. I am considering the BMPCC 6K G2. Do you use the pocket for your TH-cam videos? How do you handle focus when shooting solo since it doesn't have live focus?
Thank you very much for your kind words 🙏. Yes, I’ve been using this camera for my YT videos since I got it. Manual focus is very easy to handle. When you get the feel of it, you don’t want to go back to AF. At the beginning used to use photo lenses (Tamron 15-50mm f2.8 and Canon 50mm f1.8) and as they have electronics they are compatible with the “AF” the pocket 6K Pro has, and so I used the Blackmagic app. I sat down and with the phone I focus on my face (using focus assistant). Now I use cinema lenses (Samyang-I did a video about them) and I focus either on my chair etc; an amazing solution can be buying the nano follow focus from Tilta, as you can focus wirelessly! Thanks again for watching and leaving your comment 🙏
@@topicruben that’s great! I just discovered the tilts fallow focus last night. Also discovered the CineEye last night which can be used to basically make a wireless follow focus with a monitor out of your phone or iPad so I will likely do that. I have a ton of photographic glass but I may end up getting a few primes. Thanks for the reply.

Thanks! I just got this camera and have no background in recording video. Your tutorial helped answer my question regarding if ProRes needed to be converted in Davinchi
Thank you very much for your videos! Could you please tell me which objective would you recommend to use with the black magic pro 6 k for youtube videos? Best regards!
Thank you, Erick🙏. If you’re talking about lenses for TH-cam, I totally recommend the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8. It’s very versatile, has and amazing built quality and delivers a beautiful image. Thanks for watching 🙏
The way you talk in all your videos is amazing, passioned and i can undertand your english a 100%. Ill buy 6k pro on November. I have a lot of projects in mind, so. I cant wait more. Thanks
That’s awesome, my friend. Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Congratulations 🎉 on your new awesome camera and welcome to the Blackmagic gang!

Hey Ruben, for using the 6K Pro for TH-cam as you said you do, can I ask how you setup focus, what f stop (or t stop) are you using? Do you find you go out of focus easily in MF?
Hey Kris, great question! Let me go step by step. I use cinema lenses (Samyang/Rokinon in America) and so, inside the house with my lights I normally shoot between T2 and T2.2, not less than that otherwise it becomes more difficult to focus and any little movement back and forth will take me out of focus. To setup focus I put something in the area I’m gonna be sitting on and use my focus assist and then reframe the composition, or tell my 7 yo daughter to put me green, lol. She has become my camera girl. It seems like a lot of work, but after awhile you get used to it and you nail it by yourself! It’s funny but AF bothers me. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your great comment 🙏🇨🇦❤️. Peace and love
6K is better because in Sequence FHD I have three options for different shot sizes without losing quality: 31.2%, 50-70% and 100%. But, unfortunately, in Windows Resolve does not have 422 output for archiving material. You have to convert to DNxHR 444 and then, through Adobe Encoder, to ProRes422.
Great video! How would you compare the 6K FF and Pro against the 6K G2? I'm considering the 6K G2 over the other two, because the difference of the 6K Pro pretty much only is the built-in ND filter. I have a matte box with ND filters already. The 6K FF is full-frame, which can be worth it, but not sure if that's a big leap worth the money (€1k). Currently have a rigged out BMPCC 4k (with ext battery, matte box and nd filters, ext monitor etc.) and I am also not sure if it is worth the upgrade to the 6k G2. The 6k G2 has a crazy deal of €1500 and if I sell the BMPCC 4k, it is only €400 extra for me to upgrade from the 4k. Thank you!
Hey buddy, thanks for watching and for your comment. The FF is a great camera because of the OLPF internal filter which makes the colors more accurate and also because of the cf express card possibility (it doesn’t have good frame rate choices). Of course you can also use an external SSD. It’s true, the price is higher than the G2. I don’t think the 6k G2 has that filter, but you can also correct any shifts in black (under the sunlight) in post, so G2 is newer and better than the 4K and has more choices for lenses. Hope this helps
@@topicruben Thanks for your reply! So I already have a BMPCC 4k + speedbooster. And I already use EF lenses. I'm considering an upgrade to 6k G2, because of the 6k resolution and I'm looking for a leap in quality, sharpness, colors, overall "look" and perhaps a more future proof camera. But I am not sure if changing from BMPCC4k to 6K G2 will make that much of a difference and is worth the upgrade. As for other features: because I already have a BMPCC 4k rig with a speedbooster, and ext. monitor, and a v-mount, some of the improvements of the 6k G2 (like better battery life, flippable monitor, EF mount) aren't THAT important. The extra €€€ for built-in ND for the 6k Pro isn't worth it for me either. For me, I want to make short narrative films (relatively small crew), documentary stuff and make my clients happy with all kinds of videocontent. The 6k G2 has a crazy deal of €1500 and if I sell my BMPCC 4k (+cage + speedbooster), it is "only" €400 extra for me to upgrade. But then again: only if it makes a significant difference in colors/quality/sharpness/flexibility.
Hi Ruben, thank you for this great video. I’m pivoting somewhat late in life to video and filmmaking and have been considering the BMPCC 6K Pro since I already edit in Davinci. I just followed you on IG and look forward to seeing more of your content. We seem to have some things in common. I see that you were born in Cuba. I’m half Cuban, half Puerto Rican (and born in the States). My wife and I love Europe (she’s from Lebanon) and are considering living abroad for a couple of years. Italy is at the top of my list; France hers (we can’t go wrong with either). I also love how you closed your video. It resonates with me, particularly now when I’m going through some challenges. Keep up the great work.
Hi René. Very flattered to have you onboard. It’s never late to do something, my brother! I also started “late” with videos etc. I think with time and age we change somehow looking for ways to express ourselves spiritually. I saw on IG that you are a survivor (amazing photos and story!) Thank you for taking the time and watching and for your great comment. Italy is a mess - nothing works 😂 and yes, you can’t go wrong with the 6k Pro, it’s a fantastic camera. Oh, and Cuban/Puerto Rican is an AMAZING combo!!!!! 🔥 P’lante hermano 🙏
@@topicruben thank you, Ruben. Would love to chat more offline about Italy, if possible. While I’m no longer in the online marketing space, I’m happy to share my insights on marketing (I’ve built brands for some fairly big “influencers,” including Tai Lopez, for whom I was CEO during his “here in my garage” days). Send me a DM on IG if interested!
Hi, beginner question: Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Lightsituation was not to bad - but I had massive red and blue Noise. Is that normal, is the noise filter from the camera in BRAW deactivated? Video set was in a fabric hall with day and flouruscend light Cam settings: ISO 400 Iris 5 Shutter 50 Blackmagic RAW Constant Bitrate 5:1 3840 x 2160 (Ultra HD)
Hi there. I don’t know the Studio 4K, but the only thing I see from that situation is the iris at 5; I would’ve had it more open to let more light come to the sensor, but I don’t know why so much noise?!
@@topicruben i ll try it next week - and let you know ... i ll also compare BRAW and Prores ... Do you know if cameraes or lenses have noise filter - which will be deactivated in raw?
@@Vision-IT_1 I’ve never heard about deactivating noise, you normally do that in post. BRaw will definitely give you a cleaner image and you will have more room with colors etc than ProRes
@@topicruben really enjoyed your video. Im in some cool projects right now and shot all in BRAW. Always trying to squeeze the most out of the gear. thanks for your reply. Check out what my amazing wife and I do as musicians.. its been a pretty cool run. th-cam.com/users/DESTINEAKMUSIC
@@topicruben What would you say your workflow is from BRAW 6k to FCP? Still trying to tighten up the conversion times for large projects. Been watching your videos, great work and tastefully titled!
@@matchmediafilms Thank you 🙏, most appreciated! Well, I normally shoot in BRaw either 12:1 or 5:1. I open Resolve 18, import my footage and export them into ProRes. Then I open them in fcpx and do my editing, BUT, things are changing now! If you saw my latest video, I started working and learning DaVinci Resolve. It’s the best way to work with Blackmagic products, as shooting in bRaw I can edit directly using Resolve. Besides, Resolve is like having a whole postproduction studio in a single app! I like fcpx-been using it for a long time, but Resolve is a different ball game, man. Thanks for checking my new videos. I also watched the video you have and it was very cool 🙏. Cheers
@@topicruben thanks for the detailed workflow, Looks like we are playing the same ball game. Eventually, maybe 2 projects from now I will be in DaVinci for all editing and sound design. Probably still use FCP for special titles and some fx i have purchased from motion vfx. Thanks again and looking forward to more content.
Super cool video, good to have a break down I shoot YT videos on this camera. It’s made me a fan of MF instead of AF and the app is so powerful. It’s just a beautiful camera.
I can only agree with the others here, great video and great content you produce here! I just subscribed to the channel!!! I got my BMPCC 6K PRO (with DJI RS 3, DJI RS 3 - 3D TOF LiDAR and Irix Cine lens 21 mm) about 4 weeks ago, but haven't had much time to try anything yet. I would like to shoot in BRAW so that I can make changes to the material in post-production.
That's excellent, Stefan! Shooting in BRAW is awesome and working in post with that footage is like eating bread with nutella, lol..., meaning is really fun doing it! Thanks a lot for supporting the channel, man. Highly appreciated 🙏
Dude, believe me, it is worth every penny. The 4K is great, but if you do the math you’ll be spending more between rig, batteries, monitor and metabone!!! Thanks for watching 🙏
@@dericsanchez4081 In that case the 6K Pro is defo a better choice. At some point I rigged it up, cause I didn't want to worry about battery (cause even the 6K pro doesn't have a great battery life), and yesterday I got the best solution I never thought about before. Now I can go out and shoot with minimum stuff and have 3 or more hours of battery. I got the Anton Bauer Titon battery, which you attach to the bottom of the camera with a quick release and boom!
Good morning, I have just watched your video with much interest. As a new user I am still becoming conversant with the 6k Pro. Tomorrow, I am shooting a dance routine for a music video. Would you recommend using Pro res, so I can import straight away into FCPX? Can I please ask what settings you would advise me to use, if I shoot in 4k Pro res. Thank you. :)
Hey brother, first of all thank you for taking the time, watching and leaving a great comment! Your recording settings can vary depending on what final quality you want, or the client wants. Also it is important to keep in mind what kind of computer you have so your whole project runs smooth. However, if you want to shoot in ProRes to use it straight away with FCPX I would recommend 422. It'll give you an amazing quality. Look, BRAW 6K 12:1 will give you 1h and 47 minutes (aprox) and ProRes 4K 422 will give you 1h and 51 minutes, so it's pretty similar regarding file-size (not quality size of course) If you're planning to do several takes and let's say one of them will be a fixed footage (like on a tripod), I would shoot that one in 24 fps, and if you do other takes, let's say handheld I would use 60 fps so if you use slow motion or stabilize the footage it looks better. If you wanna go even smaller in file-size you can try ProRes 4K LT. It'll be the smallest and fastest, but the quality won't be as the other codecs. Feel free if you have any other questions. Thanks so much
Hi again, So the shoot went really well, just one issue, if I can ask your advise? although I think I know the answer. A bright day, so shooting at iso 100. 24 fps, shutter angle 180. Exposure meter is telling me f8, but ideally I’m looking to shoot at 1.4 or 2.8; I’ve used the camera’s internal ND filters and still can’t get the desired f stop. As far as I know, my only other option to get the aperture I want, is to put another ND filter on the lens. Am I correct? No other options? Thank you.
@@Liam_Doherty_UK hey brother, thank you for the comment. The answer is noooo! 😄 you do not need another ND filter, you should shoot at 400 ISO. Remember that the 6k Pro has 2 native ISO 400 and 3200. You should always try to stay in that range to obtain better results. Now, the way I see is that you want to obtain some good blurry background. In that case you can use the internal ND at 6 stops with 400 ISO and that should give you a good range to open the aperture of the lens, but if you’re shooting at midday that could be an issue, you probably won’t be able to open your aperture at f2.8 cause it’s too bright. Why don’t you shoot early in the morning or at golden hour? That would be awesome! Shooting at golden hour with the sun behind the subject (reversed light) and a positive panel to give some light to the subject!!! If you want you can DM me on Twitter or IG (same name) or you can find my email in my about page in my channel. Hope this was helpful 🙏
I’ve got to say you do know so much about the cameras you have and use I’m thinking of buying a new camera once I’ve saved up a lot of pennies that is .. not sure what one to get something easy to use but great zoom and hopefully dose not take GCSEs to actually be able to use it lol 😂 Great video as always ❤️🥰❤️👍👍👍 amazing editing and very informative
Thank you Claire! Maybe a good choice for you could be a GoPro, or like you said, something small, compact with good quality and without breaking the bank. There are many choices out there. I’ll send you some ideas later. Thanks again. Cheers to you and your family ❤️
The camera is great indeed, but is not the most important thing. The main thing is the one who operates it and its talent using it. Thanks a lot for your great support my friend
I have in issue, and I can't find information about it in the internet. As I set max quality 6k, Q0, or even Q3 at 60 fps, the camera stops recording. And while I was shooting outdoor it even was turning off every 3-5 second. Any explanation?
Ok, everywhere I checked and it seems to be not a normal thing! The camera shouldn’t have any restrictions about recording time in any code. Is your camera still on warranty? You should contact Blackmagic Design by email. They always answer!
@@topicruben as I know? I have a global warranty, or something like that. But the thing is that I'm from Kazakhstan, and in the shop where I baught the camera, I was told that I would have to wait like 2 months before I send camera to England, so they could repair it and send it back. I've sent the message to blackmagic, still waiting for the response))
Hey man, know I'm late and I hope you have fixed it, but it could be that your storage card can't handle that. If you are using a Card with 200mb/s it can stop the recording because it can't handle that huge amount of data in that short time. Maybe your problem is solved when you are using a external Storage like Samsung T7 with 1000mb/s
@@jonasusinger3650 hey. Actually it was a card problem, and it's T7 problem. I've texted to bmpcc, and they told me that this card doesn't allow you to record in better quality, which is weird🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@Sch0koK3ks Thanks for your patience, brother. I just turned the camera ON and tried and the answer is definitely YES! I tried Constant Quality Q5 and Q0 and (I repeat) it worked fine with the T5
It all depends on what compression you use. I believe that if you use ProRes 422 it would be harder to use on a windows 🪟 computer, but it also depends on what OS you’re running! If you do video editing, or music on windows you must have a powerful one 💪. Nevertheless, thanks so much for checking the video and leaving a great comment. Cheers 👍🙏⭐️
@@topicruben Thanks for your reply … I use a Dell G5 5590 i7 9th generation with 1TB HDD and 500GB SSD running on a windows 10 so I think it’s enough powerful laptop to edit with…. I only get to play my prores files when imported to Premiere pro … Same prores files works or plays perfectly on my MacBook while Braw works working on Windows ….
You smentioned at 3:46 that 6K BRAW image isn't cropped as it is when using 4K ProRes; however, 4K ProRes actually uses the whole 6K sensor and downsamples to 4K which also provides a cleaner 4K image than if you shot BRAW 4K which is cropped.

6K is better because in Sequence FHD I have three options for different shot sizes without losing quality: 31.2%, 50-70% and 100%.
But, unfortunately, in Windows Resolve does not have 422 output for archiving material.
You have to convert to DNxHR 444 and then, through Adobe Encoder, to ProRes422.
Great video!
How would you compare the 6K FF and Pro against the 6K G2? I'm considering the 6K G2 over the other two, because the difference of the 6K Pro pretty much only is the built-in ND filter. I have a matte box with ND filters already. The 6K FF is full-frame, which can be worth it, but not sure if that's a big leap worth the money (€1k).
Currently have a rigged out BMPCC 4k (with ext battery, matte box and nd filters, ext monitor etc.) and I am also not sure if it is worth the upgrade to the 6k G2. The 6k G2 has a crazy deal of €1500 and if I sell the BMPCC 4k, it is only €400 extra for me to upgrade from the 4k.
Thank you!
Hey buddy, thanks for watching and for your comment. The FF is a great camera because of the OLPF internal filter which makes the colors more accurate and also because of the cf express card possibility (it doesn’t have good frame rate choices). Of course you can also use an external SSD. It’s true, the price is higher than the G2. I don’t think the 6k G2 has that filter, but you can also correct any shifts in black (under the sunlight) in post, so G2 is newer and better than the 4K and has more choices for lenses. Hope this helps

Thanks for your reply!
So I already have a BMPCC 4k + speedbooster. And I already use EF lenses. I'm considering an upgrade to 6k G2, because of the 6k resolution and I'm looking for a leap in quality, sharpness, colors, overall "look" and perhaps a more future proof camera.
But I am not sure if changing from BMPCC4k to 6K G2 will make that much of a difference and is worth the upgrade. As for other features: because I already have a BMPCC 4k rig with a speedbooster, and ext. monitor, and a v-mount, some of the improvements of the 6k G2 (like better battery life, flippable monitor, EF mount) aren't THAT important.
The extra €€€ for built-in ND for the 6k Pro isn't worth it for me either.
For me, I want to make short narrative films (relatively small crew), documentary stuff and make my clients happy with all kinds of videocontent.
The 6k G2 has a crazy deal of €1500 and if I sell my BMPCC 4k (+cage + speedbooster), it is "only" €400 extra for me to upgrade. But then again: only if it makes a significant difference in colors/quality/sharpness/flexibility.
Love the video! How did you do that smooth zoom in at 1:34!? So smooth
Thank you so much 🙏. Highly appreciated. That’s a plug-in by MotionVFX. I did another video about it!!!

Hi Ruben, thank you for this great video. I’m pivoting somewhat late in life to video and filmmaking and have been considering the BMPCC 6K Pro since I already edit in Davinci.
I just followed you on IG and look forward to seeing more of your content.
We seem to have some things in common. I see that you were born in Cuba. I’m half Cuban, half Puerto Rican (and born in the States). My wife and I love Europe (she’s from Lebanon) and are considering living abroad for a couple of years. Italy is at the top of my list; France hers (we can’t go wrong with either).
I also love how you closed your video. It resonates with me, particularly now when I’m going through some challenges.
Keep up the great work.
Hi René. Very flattered to have you onboard. It’s never late to do something, my brother! I also started “late” with videos etc. I think with time and age we change somehow looking for ways to express ourselves spiritually. I saw on IG that you are a survivor (amazing photos and story!) Thank you for taking the time and watching and for your great comment. Italy is a mess - nothing works 😂 and yes, you can’t go wrong with the 6k Pro, it’s a fantastic camera. Oh, and Cuban/Puerto Rican is an AMAZING combo!!!!! 🔥 P’lante hermano 🙏
@@topicruben thank you, Ruben. Would love to chat more offline about Italy, if possible. While I’m no longer in the online marketing space, I’m happy to share my insights on marketing (I’ve built brands for some fairly big “influencers,” including Tai Lopez, for whom I was CEO during his “here in my garage” days). Send me a DM on IG if interested!
BRAW squad, but you're right. ProRes is probably enough for most use
Yes, indeed. I haven't use it in awhile. When you go RAW is like when you go Mac, lol! Thanks brother (but you have a chooooiiiiceeee)
Hi, beginner question: Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K
Lightsituation was not to bad - but I had massive red and blue Noise.
Is that normal, is the noise filter from the camera in BRAW deactivated?
Video set was in a fabric hall with day and flouruscend light
Cam settings:
ISO 400
Iris 5
Shutter 50
Blackmagic RAW Constant Bitrate 5:1
3840 x 2160 (Ultra HD)
Hi there. I don’t know the Studio 4K, but the only thing I see from that situation is the iris at 5; I would’ve had it more open to let more light come to the sensor, but I don’t know why so much noise?!
@@topicruben i ll try it next week - and let you know ... i ll also compare BRAW and Prores ...
Do you know if cameraes or lenses have noise filter - which will be deactivated in raw?
@@Vision-IT_1 I’ve never heard about deactivating noise, you normally do that in post. BRaw will definitely give you a cleaner image and you will have more room with colors etc than ProRes
Incredible information, video and you have amazing character! SUBBED! Cant wait for more!
Thank you very much for your kind words 🙏
@@topicruben really enjoyed your video. Im in some cool projects right now and shot all in BRAW. Always trying to squeeze the most out of the gear. thanks for your reply. Check out what my amazing wife and I do as musicians.. its been a pretty cool run. th-cam.com/users/DESTINEAKMUSIC
@@topicruben What would you say your workflow is from BRAW 6k to FCP? Still trying to tighten up the conversion times for large projects. Been watching your videos, great work and tastefully titled!
@@matchmediafilms Thank you 🙏, most appreciated! Well, I normally shoot in BRaw either 12:1 or 5:1. I open Resolve 18, import my footage and export them into ProRes. Then I open them in fcpx and do my editing, BUT, things are changing now! If you saw my latest video, I started working and learning DaVinci Resolve. It’s the best way to work with Blackmagic products, as shooting in bRaw I can edit directly using Resolve. Besides, Resolve is like having a whole postproduction studio in a single app! I like fcpx-been using it for a long time, but Resolve is a different ball game, man. Thanks for checking my new videos. I also watched the video you have and it was very cool 🙏. Cheers
@@topicruben thanks for the detailed workflow, Looks like we are playing the same ball game. Eventually, maybe 2 projects from now I will be in DaVinci for all editing and sound design. Probably still use FCP for special titles and some fx i have purchased from motion vfx. Thanks again and looking forward to more content.
Super cool video, good to have a break down I shoot YT videos on this camera. It’s made me a fan of MF instead of AF and the app is so powerful.
It’s just a beautiful camera.
It is indeed. Thanks so much for watching and for sharing your comment 🙏

Hi Manuel. You need to do it from your computer. I haven’t been able to do it from the camera. Thanks for watching and welcome 🙏
@@topicruben thank you!
I can only agree with the others here, great video and great content you produce here! I just subscribed to the channel!!!
I got my BMPCC 6K PRO (with DJI RS 3, DJI RS 3 - 3D TOF LiDAR and Irix Cine lens 21 mm) about 4 weeks ago, but haven't had much time to try anything yet. I would like to shoot in BRAW so that I can make changes to the material in post-production.
That's excellent, Stefan! Shooting in BRAW is awesome and working in post with that footage is like eating bread with nutella, lol..., meaning is really fun doing it! Thanks a lot for supporting the channel, man. Highly appreciated 🙏
I’m actually thinking about picking up the 4K. Would like the internal ND and better screen of the 6k pro but not sure it’s worth the extra $
Dude, believe me, it is worth every penny. The 4K is great, but if you do the math you’ll be spending more between rig, batteries, monitor and metabone!!! Thanks for watching 🙏
@@topicruben that’s true. I’d hope to not have to rig it up all crazy and just use it more run and gun.
@@dericsanchez4081 In that case the 6K Pro is defo a better choice. At some point I rigged it up, cause I didn't want to worry about battery (cause even the 6K pro doesn't have a great battery life), and yesterday I got the best solution I never thought about before. Now I can go out and shoot with minimum stuff and have 3 or more hours of battery. I got the Anton Bauer Titon battery, which you attach to the bottom of the camera with a quick release and boom!
@@topicruben can you please show us how you solve the battery problem in a video? I love this camera and I shoot with it music videos.
@@benjaminmagambo3849 Hi Benjamin, that would be a good idea, cause I just upgraded mine so, I’ll should be making a video soon. Thanks for watching 🙏
Thank you very much
You’re very welcome! Do you use the 6k Pro?
Amazing video thank you
Thanks to you, brother 🙏
Good morning, I have just watched your video with much interest. As a new user I am still becoming conversant with the 6k Pro. Tomorrow, I am shooting a dance routine for a music video. Would you recommend using Pro res, so I can import straight away into FCPX? Can I please ask what settings you would advise me to use, if I shoot in 4k Pro res. Thank you. :)
Hey brother, first of all thank you for taking the time, watching and leaving a great comment! Your recording settings can vary depending on what final quality you want, or the client wants. Also it is important to keep in mind what kind of computer you have so your whole project runs smooth. However, if you want to shoot in ProRes to use it straight away with FCPX I would recommend 422. It'll give you an amazing quality. Look, BRAW 6K 12:1 will give you 1h and 47 minutes (aprox) and ProRes 4K 422 will give you 1h and 51 minutes, so it's pretty similar regarding file-size (not quality size of course) If you're planning to do several takes and let's say one of them will be a fixed footage (like on a tripod), I would shoot that one in 24 fps, and if you do other takes, let's say handheld I would use 60 fps so if you use slow motion or stabilize the footage it looks better. If you wanna go even smaller in file-size you can try ProRes 4K LT. It'll be the smallest and fastest, but the quality won't be as the other codecs. Feel free if you have any other questions. Thanks so much
@@topicruben Thank you for taking the time to reply & advise. It's very good of you. Regards from Liverpool, UK :)
@@Liam_Doherty_UK hey brother, you’re most welcome 🙏. Good luck with the shooting 🎥. Cheers from Italy
Hi again,
So the shoot went really well, just one issue, if I can ask your advise?
although I think I know the answer.
A bright day, so shooting at iso 100. 24 fps, shutter angle 180.
Exposure meter is telling me f8, but ideally I’m looking to shoot at 1.4 or 2.8; I’ve used the camera’s internal ND filters and still can’t get the desired f stop. As far as I know, my only other option to get the aperture I want, is to put another ND filter on the lens. Am I correct? No other options?
Thank you.
@@Liam_Doherty_UK hey brother, thank you for the comment. The answer is noooo! 😄 you do not need another ND filter, you should shoot at 400 ISO. Remember that the 6k Pro has 2 native ISO 400 and 3200. You should always try to stay in that range to obtain better results. Now, the way I see is that you want to obtain some good blurry background. In that case you can use the internal ND at 6 stops with 400 ISO and that should give you a good range to open the aperture of the lens, but if you’re shooting at midday that could be an issue, you probably won’t be able to open your aperture at f2.8 cause it’s too bright. Why don’t you shoot early in the morning or at golden hour? That would be awesome! Shooting at golden hour with the sun behind the subject (reversed light) and a positive panel to give some light to the subject!!! If you want you can DM me on Twitter or IG (same name) or you can find my email in my about page in my channel. Hope this was helpful 🙏
Amazing 📸 good stuff 👍😊
Thank you so much, brother 🙏
I’ve got to say you do know so much about the cameras you have and use I’m thinking of buying a new camera once I’ve saved up a lot of pennies that is .. not sure what one to get something easy to use but great zoom and hopefully dose not take GCSEs to actually be able to use it lol 😂 Great video as always ❤️🥰❤️👍👍👍 amazing editing and very informative
Thank you Claire! Maybe a good choice for you could be a GoPro, or like you said, something small, compact with good quality and without breaking the bank. There are many choices out there. I’ll send you some ideas later. Thanks again. Cheers to you and your family ❤️

I have in issue, and I can't find information about it in the internet. As I set max quality 6k, Q0, or even Q3 at 60 fps, the camera stops recording. And while I was shooting outdoor it even was turning off every 3-5 second. Any explanation?
I will inquire and get back to you ASAP. Thanks 🙏
Ok, everywhere I checked and it seems to be not a normal thing! The camera shouldn’t have any restrictions about recording time in any code. Is your camera still on warranty? You should contact Blackmagic Design by email. They always answer!
@@topicruben as I know? I have a global warranty, or something like that. But the thing is that I'm from Kazakhstan, and in the shop where I baught the camera, I was told that I would have to wait like 2 months before I send camera to England, so they could repair it and send it back. I've sent the message to blackmagic, still waiting for the response))
Hey man, know I'm late and I hope you have fixed it, but it could be that your storage card can't handle that. If you are using a Card with 200mb/s it can stop the recording because it can't handle that huge amount of data in that short time. Maybe your problem is solved when you are using a external Storage like Samsung T7 with 1000mb/s
@@jonasusinger3650 hey. Actually it was a card problem, and it's T7 problem. I've texted to bmpcc, and they told me that this card doesn't allow you to record in better quality, which is weird🤔🤔🤔🤔

Can you film in 6k constant quality with the T5? i have a T7 and it stops fimling by itself after 2-3 seconds recording time. :(

@@Sch0koK3ks Thanks for your patience, brother. I just turned the camera ON and tried and the answer is definitely YES! I tried Constant Quality Q5 and Q0 and (I repeat) it worked fine with the T5

Nice Video but I think you talked for Mac Users …. Working with Prores on a windows laptop is a little pain in the a**
It all depends on what compression you use. I believe that if you use ProRes 422 it would be harder to use on a windows 🪟 computer, but it also depends on what OS you’re running! If you do video editing, or music on windows you must have a powerful one 💪. Nevertheless, thanks so much for checking the video and leaving a great comment. Cheers 👍🙏⭐️

You smentioned at 3:46 that 6K BRAW image isn't cropped as it is when using 4K ProRes; however, 4K ProRes actually uses the whole 6K sensor and downsamples to 4K which also provides a cleaner 4K image than if you shot BRAW 4K which is cropped.
