    For anyone who might be worried about the rolling shutter, WATCH THIS. th-cam.com/video/HHC70hBeMh0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0Jh1nPhatpjdMWzt
    TH-cam has become this weird space where people feel the need to trash on anything that isn’t for them. Personally, I look at gear for what it can do for me cause guess what, no camera is perfect and they all serve their purpose. I’m looking for a tool, not an issue.

    Blackmagic has nailed it by adopting the best of ARRI and RED, making this camera near-perfect. However, the rolling shutter still falls short-gyro data can help in post if the camera’s moving, but it doesn’t fix fast-moving objects in frame which still might be good for most productions. Low light performance is solid, though it’s not designed for run-and-gun, which isn’t expected from a cinema camera anyway! Solid stuff at an unbeatable price point is the key thing to remember here!

      I’ll do a video showing the rs fix but yeah won’t fix objects obviously. I personally don’t think it matters as much as people think. Specially if you’re making content for regular audience and not jsut us TH-camrs. And if someone is mainly shooting high pace action stuff, then yeah there’s def better tools!!

      @@cammackeynonsense, the rolling shutter is horrible. Just look at the footage from Kofi, it caused motion sickness. Rolling shutter is part of image quality. If this camera was so great, why wasn’t the Pocket 6K a hit? Sure, it may be great on some of the points you made but if your image gets your audience sick, all the other stuff is irrelevant. Plenty of other good cameras at this price point that will not get your audience nauseated.

      @@lucapasturini4229one third of the population suffers from motion sickness. It amazes me how many people try to justify this camera with its horrible rolling shutter. This is 2024 and numerous cameras have decent rolling shutter for this price range. This camera is no better than the Pocket 6K. If you want to get your audience sick, then go ahead and buy this camera. Kofi did a video on this camera and 3/4 of his video was on the rolling shutter and he was okay with it yet his sample videos were from he back on the car with the camera being bounced around showed the worst image possible from this camera. If you get motion sickness from watching it on an iPhone then you know the rolling shutter is pretty bad. Just image how many of your audiences would be throwing up if it was ever shown on the big screen. The goal is to shoot something that would stand up being shown on the big screen and this camera falls short.

    I agree. The two complaints I keep hearing from everyone on you tube about this camera are the side monitor and rolling shutter. To me they are both baseless claims.
    1. No one is using there onboard cameras monitor by itself. They have some other 5-7 inch monitor so it doesn't matter.
    2. Unless your filming nothing but action sequences where your whipping the camera around the entire movie, rolling shutter is a non issue.
    The audience has no idea what that even is. The only people that do care are people in the industry. We have to understand that no company is going to give you everything a top of the line camera has at an affordable price. For $3k this is as good as it gets.

Everyone now advertises 12-bit raw but how do they compare, canon c400/c80 and blackmagic's internal raw vs external braw and nikon's raw.

    It’s the OLPF in concert with the internal BRaw. It’s surprising how few cameras using this same sensor don’t do an OLPF that’s tuned for a filmic image. The only other one is the S1H, but that doesn’t have well-integrated Raw or even I-frame codec in open gate.
    The only reason I haven’t ordered one is I feel there’s a “Pyxis Pro” imminent that, while more expensive, will have ND and probably V-Mount.

Or if I jsut wanted a hint of a more subtle look, 1.5X. Lot of reasons! I think 2X are for those who really want to go the full anamorphic look and 1.5X is a good middle ground that will still give you a great anamorphic look.

      Hey Nate , I have personal experience with that camera, its great and only has a 1.3x crop. The only real issue with the camera is if you want to use ff lenses and be able to capture the whole image circle of that lens.
      The color rendering is way better than the 6k it feels more like actual film, but it all depends on the story you are telling. Sometimes a sony is better than an arri, sometimes a bm is better than a sony it all depends on the job but blackmagic cameras are great especially when paired with actual good glass.
      (not sure if cam will allow a link post here but if you're curious about the image quality my reel th-cam.com/video/6yMfFKK243k/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared has a mix of the 12k and a couple other cameras.)

    The real question for me as an anamorphic shooting s5iix owner.. at the end of the day, would clients actually be able to tell a difference between pyxis and lumix footage? I get that it's about what inspires you to go out and create, and objectively pyxis footage does look better.. but the more I overthink the small details, I have to remind myself that my clients wouldn't know the difference anyways. Only thing that hurts me is no open gate BRAW

      also I actually got rid of my BMCC6k because iso 3200 was essentially unusable to me. I'm a solo shooter 90% of the time and constantly in a lot of low light situations.. for 3200 being a a "Base Iso" the noise floor is kinda wild (in a bad way) PYXIS does look awesome though, especially in the right situations. I'm not being negative, just bringing up some of my own observations as a former cc6k owner :)

    • @cammackey
      @cammackey  4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      No negativity sensed brother! So I was in the same boat. How I always approached it for my own client use was... if this is just going on social media.. im going to use whatever is most convenient. If this is going to any type of commercial usage, im going to use a better quality camera. Looking back, most of those brands were happy and kept hiring me. But there were an odd one or two that def favor commercial quality even for social use. Now this could stir an argument with a lot of people on here, thinking im saying you can get commercial quality from our smaller cameras. Obviously we can.. but I think the way a cinema camera makes us operate tends to make us put in more effort, feels like theres more weight behind it all simply because rigging and yada yada. So I think we just gotta use what works for the job.

      @@cammackey Yeah I get what you're saying for sure. Especially on commercial shoots when the "optics" of the camera you're using matters..DSLR bodies make people think lower quality right off the bat regardless of how the footage comes out. That being said, using a lumix with a rigid pro cineback or "cinerig" as they call it on set versus a pyxis, I still doubt 95% of clients would know the difference when both are rigged out, they'd just assume their both pricier setups. Just how when I had my z cam everyone assumed it was a RED, especially the way I had it built out. All I know is that if overthinking was currency i'd be rich homie lol

It looks exactly EL Zone, the new false color thing by Ed Lachman that's now in the new Small HD and Atomos Monitors? Just asking because that would be a game changer for me.

    I personally can't live with the RS out of this camera.
    I would say that the FX6 + BMVA is a more attractive option should you want BRAW. I understand that you don't consider the image to be the same or as good etc, but I think the tradeoff is a BM fully profiled sensor vs RS and much lower resolution.
    PYXIS' main advantage to me, is still for people like you that want to shoot anamorphic >50% of the time and want/need open gate. That is undeniably and advantage of PYXIS.
    The camera I'm waiting for is FX6 II, because I'm fairly certain that Sony will either have to give it a RAW codec or a 12-bit codec, either of which IMHO will be plenty to be competitive. Combined with a BMVA, finally fixing the audio on the handle issue, and having all the other things the FX6 already has (real AF, best high ISO, excellent RS, etc etc) will make it the camera to beat for my uses. Even without said camera existing the FX6 fits more into what I want to do than PYXIS. If FX6 II happens to also have open gate as well... then for me it's the best of all worlds.
    I think if I shot >50% narrative, then it'd start to make sense, but I actually don't want 6k or file sizes that massive. I shot ZCam for 4 years and that disabused me of any notion of wanting (or needing) a high resolution sensor. Alexa has it right with a 4.5k sensor.
    tl;dr- Run and gun, AF, high ISO: Sony.
    Narrative, open gate, BRAW: PYXIS.
