Unicorn Films is excited to offer the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro for rent, a revolutionary tool that places the power of digital film into the hands of independent creators. This is not a hybrid photo camera that shoots video; it is a dedicated cinema camera, purpose-built to deliver the rich textures, deep colors, and wide dynamic range of a Hollywood feature film. We make this powerful and affordable camera available to support the vision of filmmakers for projects in Delhi-NCR and across the whole of India.
The Cinematic Super 35 Sensor
At the core of the BMPCC 6K Pro is a large 6K Super 35 HDR sensor with an impressive 13 stops of dynamic range. This allows you to capture images with a truly cinematic look, preserving details in both the darkest shadows and brightest highlights. The 6K resolution provides incredible flexibility, allowing you to reframe your shots in post for a 4K delivery or to create incredibly sharp images through downsampling. With a Dual Native ISO of 400 and 3200, you can achieve stunningly clean, noise-free images in a wide range of lighting conditions.
The Power of Blackmagic RAW
The headline feature of this camera is its ability to record in Blackmagic RAW (BRAW). BRAW is a groundbreaking format that captures visually lossless images with 12-bit color depth, giving you the full quality and flexibility of RAW footage but in much smaller, more manageable file sizes. Renting a camera with BRAW means you have complete control over your image in post-production, with the ability to adjust parameters like ISO, white balance, and exposure after the fact. The camera also records in high-quality Apple ProRes for workflows that require a faster turnaround.
Professional Features, Integrated Design
The “Pro” model is packed with features typically found on much more expensive cinema cameras, making it an incredible value for any production:
Advanced Color and Flexible Workflow
The BMPCC 6K Pro features Blackmagic’s Generation 5 Color Science, which delivers incredibly accurate skin tones and a beautiful, organic color palette. For ultimate workflow flexibility, you can record to CFast 2.0 cards, standard SD UHS-II cards, or connect an external SSD directly to the high-speed USB-C port for long-duration recording.

BRAW is a RAW format that captures the unprocessed data from the sensor. This gives you vastly more information to work with in post-production, allowing you to change things like white balance and exposure and perform heavy color grading without the image falling apart like a standard compressed video file would.
The "Pro" version adds several crucial professional features: high-quality built-in ND filters, a much brighter tilting screen, two mini XLR audio inputs instead of one, and it uses larger, longer-lasting NP-F570 batteries.
No, the BMPCC 6K Pro has a Super 35 sensor, which is a standard and widely used sensor size in professional cinema. It's slightly smaller than full-frame, which results in a crop factor of about 1.56x on your EF lenses.
It has an active Canon EF lens mount, one of the most popular in the world. You can rent a huge variety of Canon EF photographic lenses, as well as many cinema lenses from brands like Zeiss and Sigma that are available in EF mount.
While it's very accessible, it is a true cinema camera. It's best suited for filmmakers who are comfortable with or want to learn a proper post-production workflow, including color grading. It delivers a stunning cinematic image, but it requires more work in post than a typical mirrorless camera.
