Black Magic Deisgn PYXIS 6K Cinema Camera Rental
In the heart of Cowtown, we know a thing or two about tools that work as hard as you do. Some folks need a fancy nameplate to feel like a "Director," but you? You just need a sensor that sings and a body that gets out of the way.
Welcome to the Blackmagic Pyxis 6K, now available at Shine Cine Camera Rental in Fort Worth. This isn't a status symbol; it’s a box of pure cinematic potential. It’s bare-bones, no-nonsense, and ready to ride for the creator who cares more about the frame than the brand.
A Sensor That Commands Respect
Under the hood of this CNC-machined aluminum beast sits a massive Full Frame 6K sensor that’s three times the size of standard Super35. With 13 stops of dynamic range and a Dual Native ISO of 400 and 3200, it handles high-noon Texas sun and dimly lit honky-tonks with equal grace.
The Anamorphic Beast
If you’re looking to capture that wide-screen, oval-bokeh magic, the Pyxis is your huckleberry. Thanks to its dedicated 6:5 Anamorphic mode, you can shoot true anamorphic without the heavy cropping found on lesser rigs. It’s built to squeeze every ounce of character out of your boutique glass.
The "Simple as a Handshake" Menus
We’ve all been there—digging through twenty sub-menus just to change the frame rate while the light is dying. The Pyxis puts an end to that. It features Blackmagic’s legendary, award-winning OS:
Intuitive Touch Interface: Tap what you want to change, and change it.
Dedicated Hardware Buttons: Three customizable buttons for the settings you actually use.
No Hidden Junk: A straightforward dashboard that makes sense the first time you touch it.
Versatile Crop Modes for Every Vision
Whether you’re rocking vintage full-frame primes or modern Super35 zooms, the Pyxis adapts to your kit. No vignetting, no excuses. Choose your weapon:
Full Frame Open Gate 3:2: The ultimate canvas for maximum flexibility and reframing.
6K DCI 17:9: The gold standard for cinematic widescreen.
Anamorphic 6:5: High-resolution anamorphic mastery.
Super 35 4:3: The sweet spot for vintage glass and "Counter-Cultural" looks.
Super 16 16:9: Perfect for high-speed action and extreme crops.
Legendary Lens Pairings
The Ultimate Bang-for-Buck Package Pair the Pyxis with our DZO Arles Full Frame Primes. It’s a full-frame package that punches way above its weight class, delivering razor-sharp 6K clarity without the Hollywood price tag.
The Counter-Cultural Maverick Want to go against the grain? Flip into that 4:3 Super35 Crop mode and mount our Angenieux Optimo Zooms. It’s a texture-rich, high-end look that tells the world you know exactly what you’re doing—no "name brand" camera required.
