Blackmagic’s modular cinema camera series just got a major resolution overhaul. The Blackmagic PYXIS 12K G2 brings a 12K full-frame sensor into the company’s modular, customizable cinema cameras. Announced during a livestream ahead of the NAB conference in Las Vegas, the announcement of the PYXIS 12K G2 comes along packed inside a long list of video and broadcast gear, including new accessories designed to allow the PYXSIS series to handle like a news broadcast camera.
The Blackmagic PYXIS 12K G2 takes the same modular, box camera design as earlier PYXIS cameras that allows creators to customize their setup with different grips, cranes, gimbals, or even drones along with audio gear, external monitors and SSDs all attached to multiple mounting points at the top and sides of the camera. But the newest camera in the series takes the 6K camera and doubles the resolution.
