Boost your studio recording with cinematic images using the Blackmagic Design Studio Camera 6K Pro. This latest model of the Studio Camera not only boasts a 6K sensor for greater resolution and full RGB color, it also features an active Canon EF mount—providing compatibility with a large array of affordable EF-mount cine-style and still lenses. The Studio Camera 6K Pro now offers live streaming while retaining the talkback, tally, color correction, and raw recording to USB disks of the original 6K version. The color corrector can even be controlled from the switcher. With 13 stops of dynamic range, the Studio 6K Pro camera has darker blacks and brighter whites, perfect for color correction. The sensor features a resolution of 6144 x 3456, which produces truly cinematic images with support for frame rates from 23.98 up to 60 fps. Equipped with an active Canon EF lens mount, Studio Camera 6K Pro is compatible with a wide range of affordable cine-style and photographic lenses. Photographic lenses offer incredible quality because they're designed for use in high-resolution photography. Plus, the active lens mount lets you adjust the lens remotely. It gives you the same feel as an expensive B4 broadcast lens. Control is provided via your switcher or software or by using the touchscreen menus for camera settings and knobs for brightness, contrast, and focus peaking. The included tripod mount with 15mm LWS rod ports and mounting plate speeds your setup. 

Built-in live streaming means you can use the Blackmagic Studio Camera 6K Pro as a remote camera anywhere in the world and generate an H.264 live stream sent via the internet back to your studio. Use the Blackmagic Studio Camera 6K Pro's built-in ND filters to quickly and easily adjust the amount of light entering the camera. Interfaces designed for both broadcast and consumer components include HDMI with tally, camera control, a record trigger, and headphone and mic connections including dual XLR ports, and two USB-C expansion ports. The primary native ISO is 400, which is ideal for use under studio lighting. The secondary high-base ISO of 3200 is perfect when shooting in dimly lit environments. The Pro model features an HDR display with extremely high brightness, perfect outdoors in sunlight. On-screen overlays show status and record parameters, histograms, focus peaking indicators, levels, frame guides, and more. You can even apply 3D LUTs for monitoring shots with the desired color and look. Buttons on the left can have functions like zebra, false color, focus peaking, LUTs, and more assigned to them. You can change the function assigned to each button using the menus.

The touchscreen also includes a heads-up display with the most important shooting information as well as menus for all camera settings, LUTs, and custom presets. That means the director can talk to the camera operators to guide shot selection, eliminating the problem where all cameras could have the same shot at the same time. The talkback connector is built into the side of the camera and supports standard 5-pin XLR broadcast headsets. There's a 12G-SDI connection for camera video and one for program return. The program return also includes a tally, talkback, and remote camera control. Blackmagic Studio Cameras feature a very large tally light that illuminates red for on-air, green for preview, and orange for ISO recording. The tally light also includes clip-on transparent camera numbers, so it's easy for talent to see camera numbers from up to 20' away. Blackmagic Studio Camera 6K Pro model has 10G Ethernet as an alternative to SMPTE fiber, so it's much lower cost. The Ethernet includes all camera video, program return feeds, tally, talkback, camera control, and power. That means you can just move the disk to a computer to work, and you don't need to waste time with file copying.

You can even plug in optional focus and zoom demands to allow full lens control of compatible lenses. Plus, the USB port will power any phone or disk that's plugged in. Blackmagic Raw also saves camera settings as metadata, so you can change ISO, white balance, and exposure later in DaVinci Resolve. Plus, the files are small and fast, so editing responsiveness is incredible. There's also a 3.5mm audio input for connecting video camera microphones as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack. On the Blackmagic Studio Camera 6K Pro model, you get professional XLR audio inputs and a built-in speaker for listening to the program return audio. Simply press the camera's PGM button, and the viewfinder will switch from the camera display to the program return feed from the switcher and monitor the switcher audio. Program return is a fantastic feature as sometimes on large live shows, camera operators can be left waiting a long time for their camera to be used, so program return lets them watch the show while they wait.

The 3D LUTs are also saved into the Blackmagic Raw files, so they can be used in later postproduction, but they are never burned into the Blackmagic Raw image data, so you always have the option to disable them. This means the 3D LUT is transported in the Blackmagic Raw file, but only used when you enable it. The camera includes a power supply with five different AC socket adapters for different countries. However, if you're using a single Ethernet cable to connect to the Blackmagic Studio Camera 6K Pro model, then the whole camera and its accessories can be powered from the Ethernet connection.
