You get a lot of camera for you money – in more ways than one! (Image credit: Adam Duckworth) (opens in new tab) Specifications This is the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro next to a Sony A7S Mark III. The camera itself hasn’t seen a price hike for these new features, either. This costs £510 but it’s a lot cheaper, smaller and neater than any other external EVF. So Blackmagic worked its hocus-pocus and the new Pro version of the camera comes with a tilting rear screen, built-in ND filters and an optional EVF that slots onto the top plate once you remove a blanking panel.

That adds a lot of expense, hassle and takes up the HDMI output. And you’d have to get the signal to it via HDMI. To get a viewfinder to fit meant an investment in an external EVF and some sort of rigging to fasten it to. It had lots of the bells and whistles that filmmakers like, but a couple of obvious omissions such as built-in ND filters and any sort of EVF.

With its large but fixed five-inch rear screen, internal 12-bit Blackmagic Raw as well as 10-bit ProRes codecs, the original BMPCC 6K was a fine video camera that went a long way towards being a professional filmmaking tool.
