Blackmagic Design PYXIS 6K Cinema Box Camera with 21 & 45mm Lenses Kit (Leica L)

The Blackmagic Design PYXIS 6K Cinema Box Camera with 21 & 45mm Lenses Kit (Leica L) builds on the digital film features of the Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera 6K to provide a lockable box-style cinema camera with customizable side plates and a high-end ARRI PL-mount. A full-frame 6K sensor with a dynamic range of 13 f-ush colors and naturalistic skin tones. Blackmagic RAW and H.265 proxy files may be recorded to the cloud or, perhaps, directly streamed via Ethernet or mobile 4G/5G technology to your favorite social media site. The PYXS can capture up to 6K Open Gate 3:2 video at 36 fps or 6K Anamorphic 6:5 video at 60 fps (among other selectable resolutions) with the Blackmagic Design PYXIS 6K Cinema Box Camera with 21 & 45mm Lenses Kit (Leica L).

Large-Format Digital Film Sensor

The PYXIS is equipped with a massive 24 x 36mm full-frame sensor with native 6048 x 4032 resolution, making it 3x larger than a Super35 sensor. This allows you to shoot with a shallow depth of field or use anamorphic lenses without cropping for a true cinematic look. A 13-stop dynamic range with dual-native ISO up to 25,600 ensures low-noise imagery in all lighting conditions. Shoot up to 36 fps at full sensor resolution or 120 fps windowed.

Flexible Film Formats

Work in a variety of film formats and aspect ratios without sacrificing quality, thanks to the large sensor. At its full area, the sensor provides you with Open Gate 3:2 images for easier framing in post-production. You can also work in true 6:5 anamorphic without needing to crop for widescreen cinematics. Use a Super35-sized window to create a close-up version of your shot.

Multiple Resolutions and Frame Rates

Shoot in standard video resolutions and frame rates from HD to 6K or still images at 24.6 MP using the PYXIS. For higher frame rates, you can window the center and shoot up to 100 fps at 212 x 1184 Super 16. Other options include 6K Open Gate 3:2 at 36 fps, 4832 x 4032 anamorphic at 24 fps, and 1920 x 1080 at 120 fps, among other resolutions.

HDR Imagery and Dual-Native ISO

A wide 13-stop dynamic range preserves more detail in both the lightest and darkest areas of your image. Set the exposure for an indoor scene while still retaining details in the bright outdoor light coming through a window. An expanded color range and included DaVinci Resolve Studio code give you creative freedom over the look of your footage. Dual-native ISO up to 25,600 minimizes grain and noise in your images while maintaining the full dynamic range of the sensor. ISO 400 is ideal for on-set lighting configurations, while ISO 3200 is perfect for dimly lit environments. The gain is automatically set as you adjust your ISO for intuitive control.

Customize Your Gear

Mounting threads on the side of the PYXIS allow you to secure additional mounting plates and customize your gear configuration. The standard plate included with the PYXIS secures via M4 threads and adds two 1/4"-20 threads and one 3/8"-16 thread to the camera for microphones, articulating arms, or other accessories. An SSD plate offers two hook-and-loop straps for attaching a USB-C drive or mobile device, allowing you to directly record or live stream on the go. A separately available Rosette plate can be purchased for further expansion.

LCD Monitor and Onboard Controls

• Use the built-in 4" LCD touchscreen to monitor and review your shots on set. Its full HD resolution allows you to frame and focus without requiring an additional external unit. A maximum brightness of 1500 cd/m² ensures visibility even in bright sunlit conditions. On-screen overlays show status and recording parameters, histograms, levels, frame guides, and 3D LUTS, among other tools.
• Onboard controls allow you to toggle functions like ISO, white balance, and shutter with ease. A scroll wheel makes quick adjustments, and three customizable function buttons can tailor your workflow to your preference. The controls can be locked to avoid accidental pressing during shooting.

Post-Production File Formats

The PYXS records in Blackmagic RAW to preserve control of detail, exposure, and color during post-production. It also records H.264 proxy files in real time for easy sharing using the Blackmagic Cloud, Ethernet connection, or by connecting 5G/4G mobile phones to the USB-C port for mobile connection. Media files work on all operating systems.

Multiple Recording Options

Two built-in CFExpress Type-B card slots and a USB-C expansion port allow you to record directly to external flash media disks or SSDs.

Built-In SRT and RTMP Live Streaming

Live stream directly from the PYXIS on set to a secondary location via SRT and RTMP protocols. Compatible platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and X can support signals from the PYXIS for live event production. If you want to share internally, use an ATEM Streaming Bridge for a wireless link back to the studio.

Expansive Connectivity

• The front of the PYXIS boasts a USB-C port for the Blackmagic URSA Cine EVF and a mini 3-pin XLR analog audio input with +48V Phantom power for microphone integration.
• The back of the PYXIS has a headphone monitoring jack and an additional 3.5mm microphone input. Use the USB-C port at the back of the camera to connect to recording devices or mobile data. A 12G-SDI output integrates a secondary monitor. A Reference/Timecode input port syncs your sources while an RJ45 Ethernet connection uploads footage to Blackmagic Cloud or controls the camera.
• Power the PYXIS using the locking 2-pin DC power connector or the Sony BP-U battery plate.
• Download the Blackmagic Camera Control app for wireless Bluetooth control from up to 30' away.

IRIX 21mm T1.5 Cine Lens (Leica L, Feet)

Designed for up to 8K cine-style image capture, the Leica L-mount 21mm T1.5 Cine Lens from IRIX produces a distortion-free, wider-angle look that is compatible with sensor sizes up to full-frame 35mm. External features include a 95mm front diameter, 0.8 MOD gears, luminous focus marks in feet, and a detachable 1/4"-20 support foot. Internally, 11 blades produce smooth, rounded bokeh, and four seals protect against inclement weather and dust. A fast T1.5 maximum aperture enables the IRIX 21mm T1.5 Cine Lens to capture images in low light conditions without the need for super-high ISO settings.

This lightweight, aluminum/magnesium alloy lens produces smooth, rounded bokeh, color, and contrast that matches the T1.5 30 and 45mm primes in the IRIX Cine series. An adaptive focus ring delivers smooth focusing whether used manually or with a lens motor.

The IRIX Look

The IRIX Cine 21mm is a wide 43.3mm full-frame lens that conveys the IRIX "look" featuring shallow depth of field, soft highlights, subtle mist, and distinctive bokeh created by the rounded iris blades.

Distortion-Free Wide Lens

Wide enough for working in tight spaces but not so wide as to distort, the IRIX Cine 21mm keeps your subject's natural proportions and creates a sense of being there in the shot for viewers.

Ready for Any Weather Condition

Rain or shine, the rugged and durable construction of the IRIX Cine 21mm guarantees that you can keep on working with whatever the weather throws at you. The lens is resistant to rain, sand, and dust, so you can take it for your next adventure in a desert or jungle if your camera can handle those environments. Engraved markings on the lens have been filled with UV-reactive paint, so filming in difficult lighting conditions becomes much easier.

Functionality and Innovation

All IRIX cinema lenses have very similar dimensions and weight, which allows for quick and easy lens changes without the need to change the rest of your setup. The product is equipped with a Magnetic Mounting System (MMS) that lets you connect accessories such as magnetic filters from the Irix Edge lineup or an optional lens hood.

Cine Standards

The IRIX Cine 21mm was designed in accordance with the standards of the professional film industry, being the result of a combination of traditional lens solutions and modern innovation. This 21mm has a front filter thread size of 95mm and geared 0.8 MOD rings, which ensures compatibility with most accessories available on the market.

Adaptive Gear Ring

The adaptive gear ring is an innovative function you will love, no matter if you are a pro or an amateur. The ring has been designed to keep the lens housing sleek and user-friendly when operated manually, without any compromises when you want to use your favorite cine gear.

Magnetic Mount System

All the IRIX Cine lenses have a Magnetic Mount System (MMS) compatible with the separately available IRIX Edge MMS filters and IRIX MMS lens hood. The IRIX Edge magnetic filters have a unique threadless design, so you can be sure that everything stays clean and ready for action. The MMS filters can be stacked together, enabling you to not only freely combine them but to save space when stored. All the IRIX Edge MMS filters are made of hardened optical glass (SR) with a multilayer, antireflective nano-coating that makes them easy to clean.

Lightweight and Compact Design

The aluminum-magnesium alloy construction makes the lens housing weight only 2.4 to 2.6 lb, depending on the mount. It has a front outside diameter of 95mm to fit most matte boxes and accessories, an 86mm filter thread, and a front Magnetic Mount System (MMS) for rapid filter and hood replacement.

Improved Lens Cover

The previous lens cover didn't allow leaving the lens standing on a surface, so the improved cover has a flat top and slides on the lens. Thanks to this redesign, you can now leave the lens upside down on a table and not worry about it wobbling.

IRIX 45mm T1.5 Cine Lens (Leica L, Feet, Black)

Designed for cine-style image capture and covering up to full-frame size sensors, the black Leica L-mount 45mm T1.5 Cine Lens from IRIX incorporates multiple internal and external design features. External features include a 95mm front diameter, 0.8 MOD gears, luminous focus marks in feet, and a detachable 1/4"-20 support foot. Internally, nine blades produce smooth, rounded bokeh, and five seals protect against inclement weather and dust.

To help eliminate aberrations and distortion, the IRIX 45mm T1.5 Cine Lens is constructed with 11 optical elements in nine groups, including four HR (high refractive index) and three ED (extra-low dispersion) elements. This lens has 180° of focus and 75° of iris rotation and incorporates an 86mm front filter thread.

45mm Focal Length

A 45mm focal length with the Leica L lens mount is ideal for capturing crisp details and vibrant colors.

Full-Frame Coverage

The 43.3mm image circle of this lens covers up to full-frame format sensors.

Rounded Bokeh

Produces the "IRIX look" with shallow depth of field and a 9-blade iris for smooth, rounded bokeh.
