Design
1.Has a flip-out screen
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
Flip-out screens can be useful for tricky shots.
2.weather-sealed (splashproof)
✖Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
The device is protected with extra seals to prevent failures caused by dust, raindrops, and water splashes.
3.is dustproof and water-resistant
✖Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
The device is dustproof and water-resistant. Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water.
4.weight
1.24kg
We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
5.has an optical viewfinder
✖Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
An optical viewfinder (or OVF) allows the photographer to compose a shot while seeing exactly what the lens will capture. OVFs have no time lag and require no power - as opposed to electronic viewfinders, which can drain battery life. OVFs are also better in low light situations.
6.Has a hot shoe
✖Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
A hot shoe can be used to attach an external flash, as well as light meters, viewfinders, rangefinders and other attachments.
Optics
1.sensor size
23.1 x 12.99mm
The larger the sensor the more light the sensor captures yielding in better image quality.
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
3.maximum light sensitivity
25600 ISO
With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.
4.has AF tracking
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
With AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots.
5.Has phase-detection autofocus for photos
✖Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
Phase-detection autofocus is much faster than a contrast detection autofocus, allowing for sharper images.
6.shoots raw
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
A raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. Raw files are so named because they are not yet processed and therefore are not ready to be printed or edited with a bitmap graphics editor.
Videography
1.video recording (main camera)
3456 x 50fps
The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.
2.Has phase-detection autofocus for videos
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
A phase-detection autofocus system is faster than a contrast detection autofocus system. Even when recording scenes with a lot of fast movements, the videos are sharp and clear.
3.has continuous autofocus when recording movies
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
When recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.
4.Has timelapse function
✖Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
A timelapse shows a long passage of time sped up. A series of photographs taken from the same position over a long period is joined together to create a short video. It is great way to capture things like the setting sun, or clouds moving across the sky.
5.has a 24p cinema mode
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
24p is a video format (24 frames per second) traditionally used in cinema. Nowadays, it is used to create film-like motion characteristics.
6.supports slow-motion video recording
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
Slow-motion is an artistic video effect that makes time seem to go slower. It is achieved by recording a video at a higher frame-rate than the standard playback rate of 24fps or 30fps. Depending on camera capabilities, frame rates for slow-motion videos vary between 60fps and 960fps.
Audio
1.has a microphone input
✓Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
A microphone port allows connecting external high-end or specialized microphones.
