. all the video and you can pick it out well that was an event so blackmagic's event just
finished and they covered both broadcast and Film Production cameras and let's just say it didn't go
as we all hoped first of all I need to say that it's always interesting to me that while every
other branding company out there spends the first 10 to 15 minutes having these big Productions and
skits and kind of fan flare blackmagics live stream starts Grant just goes like I'm Grant
from Black Country design and I wanted to give you an update on what we have for IBC this year
and we've got a lot of new products we've got some new cameras so it's quite a lot to talk about so
let's get started and you know it's Unique and I appreciate it they started off with some of their
broadcast updates Studio 4K with some different connectors and features they brought back the
micro Studio which a lot of us kind of hoped they would bring back but in a cinematic camera form so
in a way we got a box camera today but you could throw a little monitor on it and plug in a SSD
to the USB type-c it films Blackmagic raw the Box camera obviously what we thought was going
to be the big news was the new Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K not pocket Cinema Camera 6K
they've removed the pocket even though it's the same exact body so we got full frame we
have our first full-frame black magic camera but before you quickly go and start slapping
your credit card there are some key tech specs that you should know there's no debate it looks
incredible because the Blackmagic pocket 6K Pro looks great the 6K the 4K like all Blackmagic
pocket cameras look fantastic and especially for the price they are borderline unbeatable but it
has been quite a few years since an update and so to see the same camera body come out
if we go on to the text back page here we can see that it is not in the class they're not putting
it in the class of the res the pocket line they should have just called this pocket Cinema Camera
6K full frame it's the same price as the 6K Pro and You're basically trading a full frame sensor
but you lose internal NDS which is huge it only comes in an active L Mount so here's the Leica
Mount that everyone was you know rumored to have but everything else there's no gain in dynamic
range we're still at 13. like this used to be like great on standard with everything else in this
kind of Budget Cinema World but that 13 is kind of falling behind shooting resolutions and frame
rates Again by 2023 standards yes it's nice to see open gate and nice to see various anamorphic
options but it's only up to 36 FPS uh whereas the 6K Pro shoots 6K 50 and then we all obviously
were hoping for at least 4K 120 and that camera that would be announced today but they actually
downgraded so on my 6K Pro I can go 2.8 K up to 120 but now to get to 120 you have to go down to
1080p HD it's the same tilting screen 5 inch 1500 nits looks to be the same battery the only other
difference is they change from cfast to CF Express so now you'd have to buy a whole new different
media card I don't think anyone's worried about being a bad camera again for 2500 bucks you get a
full frame cinema camera that produces an amazing 12-bit b-roll image but again considering how long
it's been that's just it it's kind of pressure I don't know what else to say about this camera
I thought this video was going to be primarily about whatever this camera was but not so much
however there was some good stuff that came out of this event still Blackmagic has very much entered
the camera to Cloud Tech race and they're doing a lot of stuff in-house and kind of all within
their own singular Walled Garden which I really do enjoy they threw a pretty intense curveball when
they announced a Blackmagic camera app I think we all kind of raised our eyebrows on that one you
know rather just like talking about it I actually downloaded all this stuff because they released
it but now I need to go on the computer and make a project so I downloaded 18.6 they've got a new
splash screen for when you create a new project where you basically will allow remote cameras to
send footage because this app really is kind of a testing ground for camera to Cloud which they
are then going to to bring to the Ursa G2 first in November and then the new almost said Pockets
the new Cinema Camera 6K full frame and allows uh proxies to be uploaded and original files so
we just got enabled those in the project settings when we're creating a new project so let's check
out the new Blackmagic camera app and I would say this is my first time using it but I actually
recorded this whole section of the video but I forgot to screen record the iPhone so whoops the
user interface of this app is pretty fantastic I think it's definitely gonna replace filmic Pro for
a lot of people because it's free Not subscription based it's your nice run-of-the-mill kind of you
user interface for manual controls right you just tap whichever setting you want to change and you
can go in and change it you can have Auto on all this stuff you can have a single exposure dial
which will find brighten and lower everything down a couple different stabilization station methods
you get your audio control all that good stuff if we go under settings under codecs and resolutions
you have all the flavors of everything that you could ever want you can change color space
hopefully it gets the Apple log some anamorphic options the real magic is when you go under the
Blackmagic Cloud you get logged in and we can see a test project because I downloaded 18.6 on
my computer you can see that you can have a free account for two gigs basically like Dropbox if
I go to upgrade they basically have a sliding scale for how much storage you pay for so you
go from two gigs all the way up to one petabyte yours for thirty thousand dollars a month if we
could go down to some more realistic storage plans here honestly it's more expensive than what I was
expecting 500 gigs for 15 a month again into 2023 standards is pretty high but I don't know what do
you guys think is that is that pretty expensive or because it's kind of all part of the same syncing
system it uh it's worth it so if I go back to my camera now you can see test project right above
my time code there and so here's kind of the cool test is I can just hit record there I am
all right and we stop recording and now if I go to Media it's automatically uploading
proxy essentially what we should see over on this monitor this is on the media page
is a folder should be created for my remote Clips I have Wi-Fi on and I have very fast
Wi-Fi try just only over Wi-Fi so it looks like right at lunch they're having some
uploading bugs server issues I guess I'll just run some b-roll from the presentation to show how it's
supposed to work basically as soon as you record on here and hit stop it'll upload straight to the
DaVinci Resolve project so an editor can start working on it multiple people can be logged in
on the app or again in the coming months to the Ursa G2 and after that the new Cinema Camera and
you can have multiple cameras all logged into the same project and that way they all upload to the
same project immediate or they can go into your Cloud store for your Originals which is really
cool I love my little eight terabyte Cloud store there and so it's really cool to see them start
the camera to Cloud kind of sector I think we all saw this coming at some point I think a
silver lining for this event is that uh we got a free app so we got something for free it's like a
free goodie bag on our way out kudos to anyone who wants to purchase the full frame cinema camera but
personally for myself my my wallet is happy today that's good because I wasn't ready to buy another
camera anyway so let me know what you guys think thanks for watching see you guys in the next video
