Blackmagic Design’s Grant Petty held a marathon new product online briefing in advance of NAB where he introduced a wide variety of new products for cinema and broadcast production and post. One item that really got my attention was the announcement of the Blackmagic PYXIS 12K, a new digital film camera that features a 12K RGBW sensor in the same form factor as the compact and easy to rig PYXIS 6K. In fact, this new model features the very same sensor as the URSA Cine 12K LF with a claimed 16 stops of dynamic range along with dual CFexpress media recorders, 10G Ethernet and Blackmagic Cloud global sync, all in a customizable body. Blackmagic PYXIS 12K is available in three models, with customers able to choose between L-Mount, PL or Locking EF lens mounts.The Digital Cinema Society has recently been shooting with an URSA Cine 12K and have been very impressed. This new edition in a more compact and highly configurable form factor will give cinematographers who want to shoot higher resolutions in a Large Format many more choices. This will be the first streaming interview of the DCS NAB 2025 coverage, so check our website late Sunday morning if you can’t attend the convention and see it in person: https://dcsonline.org/dcs-coverage-of-nab-2025/
The Blackmagic PYXIS 12K will be available in July from Blackmagic Design resellers worldwide for US$4,995. Learn more at: https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/blackmagicpyxis
