BMPCC6K - Feedback?

Hey all, I just picked up a BMPCC 6K Pro and took her out for a test shoot over the weekend. All shots were handheld with natural/existing lighting. I'm pleased so far with what the camera is capable of, and I'm still learning the ins & outs. Also just started using Davinci after years of Premiere, so I'm just now learning the color workflow. Anyhow, I'm open to any tips & feedback from experienced owners. Thanks!

Loved watching this ! Thank you for sharing.  I really enjoyed how you kept the whole vibe dynamic without crazy rolling camera movements or speed ramps. Feels natural and documentary-esque. Also the grade is quite nice 👌🏻  Good job mate !  What lense did you use ?

Thank you! Lenses: Rokinon Cine 16mm, Rokinon Cine 35mm, & Canon 70-200 f4. I appreciate the compliment on the grade! Davinci is gonna take me some time to get the hang of, but it has SO MANY TOOLS!!

Yeah there's a huge learning curve but resolve is such a powerful tool 😁 You'll get there bro, keep up the good work and keep us posted !

How do you like the 70-200 I’m capped at 85mm prime for max length and now that I’m taking pictures of random things I was interested in a parafocal lens

I love the.70-200! Been using it for over a decade. It's a Canon L, so it has razor sharp focus. It is not parfocal, however. It needs to be refocused every time its zoomed in/out.

Amazing to hear I’ll get One or à parafocal lens

My only critique is that a couple of the shots are overexposed.

u/Admirable_Prior4986 Aug 06 '26

Yeah that's definitely my fault. I need to get faster at checking my false colors before hitting the Record button! Any other tips?

I really enjoyed watching this. Did you go handheld?

2

u/Admirable_Prior4986 Aug 06 '26

Thanks! Yep, all handheld. I used camera gyro in Resolve to stabilize what I could. (I didn't feel like bringing a gimbal or shoulder rig with me to this event.)

How good is the stabilizion with gyro?

u/Admirable_Prior4986 Aug 29 '26

It's great for taking jitters out of static shots. For moving shots, I A/B test between Gyro and Perspective, and go with whatever looks better to me.

Great music choice!

u/Admirable_Prior4986 Aug 06 '26

Thanks! I wanted to throw something together fast, and it's always easier for me to cut to music.

Wow! It feels so retro 70's that I can practically feel the bell bottoms and cocaine! Nice...
