Video camera Cinema Camera 6K full frame L-Mount - BLACKMAGIC DESIGN BLM-CINECAM60KLFL

Cinema Camera 6K is a video camera designed for professionals seeking cinematic quality in a compact and versatile body. The 36 × 24 mm full-frame sensor offers excellent image separation and superior low-light performance, while dual native ISO ensures clear images even in low-light environments. The L-Mount ensures wide compatibility with photographic and cinematic lenses, making the camera ideal for narrative productions, documentaries, and digital content. The 5" touchscreen display with 1500 nit brightness makes it easy to control on set, even outdoors. Direct recording to CFexpress or via USB-C simplifies the workflow, with support for 3D LUTs and advanced metadata for smooth post-production. With the new Blackmagic Camera 10.2.2 firmware, the Cinema Camera 6K introduces powerful features such as continuous phase detection autofocus (AF-C), face and object tracking, cloud stream routing for sending live streams via the Blackmagic Cloud, pre-recording for up to 10 minutes to capture the action before pressing the record button, and 4-channel audio recording in a single synced file. These updates expand the camera's capabilities, making it even more flexible for fast-paced production, reporting and live streaming.
