Lens and memory card aside, this camera has everything you need to start filming 6K footage squeezed inside its frame. That’s especially impressive considering how self-contained it is. At 1.238kg without a lens or accessories attached it’s fairly heavy too, but (and this is the key point) it’s still smaller, lighter and more portable than the vast majority of professional cinema cameras. It has a chunky, angular and wide body that’s larger than most DSLRs (and both the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K and 6K). Design and handlingĭon’t be fooled by the name: the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro won’t be fitting in any of your pockets (unless you exclusively wear harem pants, perhaps). There are two new 6K Pro-exclusive accessories launching alongside the camera: the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera Pro EVF (costs $495 / £425 / AU$789) and Blackmagic Pocket Camera Battery Grip ($145 / £132 / $219).

That camera, as well as Blackmagic’s Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, will remain on sale as current products, rather than being replaced by the 6K Pro.

That seems like a reasonable price, given that it costs practically the same as the 'standard' Pocket Cinema Camera 6K did at the time of its release in 2019.
