Why I Bought the Blackmagic 6K FF in 2025 (Over FX3 & Pyxis)

The Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K Full Frame might be one of the most underrated cinema cameras in the industry. In this video, I share my honest thoughts on this overlooked powerhouse and why it’s still a viable, low-cost entry into real cinema gear—especially for creators in the L-Mount Alliance.

This video is more than a review—it's a deeply personal story of my 15-year journey in filmmaking, breaking away from Gear Acquisition Syndrome (G.A.S.), and embracing the mantra: "The Craft Comes First."

With 6K BRAW, full-frame sensor, pro audio inputs, SSD recording, and amazing color science, the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K is still a beast—years after release. It’s not about trends, it’s about tools that serve creativity.

Mentioned: L-Mount Alliance (Lumix, Sigma, Leica), DaVinci Resolve, S5II.
