Blackmagic Design BMD-CINECAMCPYXA60LFL PYXIS 6K Cinema Box Camera (Leica L)

Professional Box Camera for Full-Frame 6K Digital Film Capture
The Blackmagic Design PYXIS 6K is a full-frame cinema box camera built for high-end digital film production, offering a 36 x 24mm sensor with a native 6048 x 4032 resolution. Designed around an active Leica L mount and featuring switchable side plates, the PYXIS brings professional flexibility to a modular, rugged form factor. With support for Blackmagic RAW and H.264 proxy recording, plus direct-to-cloud upload and built-in streaming via Ethernet or 4G/5G, this compact box camera is made for cinematographers, broadcasters, and creators working across production environments.

Large Full-Frame Sensor for Cinematic Depth and Detail
The 24 x 36mm sensor captures full-frame 6K video with impressive clarity, rich color, and a cinematic shallow depth of field. It supports full sensor readout at 6048 x 4032 resolution for open gate 3:2 acquisition and true anamorphic shooting at 6:5 without cropping. Compared to Super35 sensors, this larger format gives you more flexibility in framing, lens selection, and aesthetic control, especially when paired with premium L-mount lenses or adapted glass via third-party mounts.

Shoot Open Gate or Anamorphic in Multiple Aspect Ratios
The PYXIS 6K enables filmmakers to shoot in open gate 3:2 mode for full sensor utilization, perfect for reframing in post or VFX tracking. It also supports 6:5 anamorphic shooting up to 60 fps, making it an ideal choice for cinematic widescreen workflows. Need a close-up? Switch to a Super35 window for tighter framing while maintaining resolution and consistency across shots. This versatility in aspect ratios makes the PYXIS adaptable for feature films, commercials, and high-end web content.

Dual Native ISO and 13 Stops of Dynamic Range for Low-Light Imaging
With a dual-native ISO system at 400 and 3200 (expandable to 25,600), the PYXIS delivers clean, low-noise images in both bright and dim environments. The 13-stop dynamic range ensures high detail retention in highlights and shadows, whether you're shooting a backlit scene or capturing high-contrast imagery. The included optical low-pass filter helps maintain edge sharpness while suppressing moiré and aliasing, ideal for high-resolution delivery formats.

Integrated RAW and Proxy Recording to CFexpress and Cloud
The PYXIS 6K can record Blackmagic RAW and H.264 proxies simultaneously to CFexpress cards or upload directly to the cloud. This dual-record workflow streamlines post-production by offering high-quality masters and lightweight proxy files for quick turnaround editing. You can also record over USB-C or use the dual CFexpress slots for redundant capture, ensuring reliable data handling during critical takes.

Stream Live via Ethernet or Mobile 4G/5G Networks
One of the standout features of the PYXIS is built-in live streaming capability. With an Ethernet port and support for 4G/5G modems, the camera can stream directly to platforms like YouTube, Facebook, or your custom RTMP destination without external hardware. Whether you're shooting ENG, corporate events, or mobile productions, this makes the PYXIS an all-in-one capture and delivery solution for live workflows.

Customizable Design With Mounting Options and Side Plates
The box-style design of the PYXIS makes it ideal for custom rigs and modular builds. Multiple mounting threads across the body enable flexible attachment of cages, accessories, or gimbals. Removable side plates let you tailor the camera for your build, whether you’re shooting handheld, on a drone, or built into a broadcast rig. The compact footprint combined with pro-level specs makes the PYXIS adaptable to a wide range of production environments.
