The Blackmagic Design PYXIS 6K offers filmmakers an advanced full-frame sensor with a resolution of 6048 x 4032, delivering outstanding detail and image quality. The camera’s 13 stops of dynamic range preserve highlights and shadows, allowing for rich, cinematic imagery. Whether you are shooting in bright or low-light environments, the dual-native ISO (400 and 3200) enables clean, noise-free performance. The camera’s ISO can be expanded up to 25,600, making it ideal for low-light scenes without sacrificing image quality.

A major strength of the PYXIS 6K is its versatility. It supports a variety of film formats and aspect ratios, including Open Gate 3:2 for maximum sensor use and 6:5 anamorphic shooting. For slow-motion shots, it supports frame rates up to 120 fps in HD mode and 60 fps in 6K widescreen formats, making it a great tool for both creative and commercial productions.

The 4-inch HDR touchscreen on the camera allows for real-time monitoring and easy control over key settings like focus, exposure, and ISO. With its brightness of 1500 nits, this display is easy to view even under direct sunlight, which is essential for outdoor shoots. Additionally, the camera provides dual CFexpress media slots for high-speed recording, and a USB-C port for connecting external drives or live streaming to social platforms via Ethernet or mobile networks (4G/5G).

Live production is simplified with the camera’s built-in streaming capabilities, compatible with platforms like YouTube and Facebook. For traditional cinematic workflows, the 12G-SDI output allows for connection to external monitors and recorders, while the timecode input ensures accurate synchronization in multi-camera environments.
