function, simply set the ‘off speed’ frame rate you’d like to use in the ‘frame rate’ menu.
Once this is set, pressing the HFR button will toggle between your chosen off speed
frame rate and project frame rate. It’s worth mentioning that this setting can only be
adjusted when the recording is stopped.
For more information on project and off speed frame rates, see the
‘touchscreencontrols’ section.

to adjust the zoom level. For more information, see the ‘pinch to zoom’ section.
While zoomed in, you can touch and drag on the screen to view different areas of the
image. When you activate focus zoom and look through the optional electronic
viewfinder, you can turn the settings wheel to adjust zoom level and press the settings
wheel to select the region of interest. To zoom out, press the ‘focus zoom’ button again.

34 Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera Pro EVF
Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro has an optional electronic viewfinder.
Theviewfinder tilts vertically 70 degrees and comes with four eyecup types for left or
right eye. Asensor in the viewfinder detects when it is in use, and will switch off the
LCD touchscreen to conserve battery power and prevent accidental taps on
touchscreen controls. You can set the viewfinder to overlay camera status information
or display a clean feed. For more information, see the ‘monitor settings’ section.
To install the viewfinder, use a small flathead screwdriver to loosen the screw in the
connector port cover on top of the camera. Remove the cover and confirm the
connector port is clean and dry. Slide the viewfinder into the connector port. Fasten
theviewfinder into position by tightening the thumb screw.
35 Diopter for Electronic Viewfinder
Turn the diopter knob to adjust the focus of the optional electronic viewfinder on
Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro to suit your eyes. It’s important to note the
diopter adjusts the focus of the image presented in the viewfinder, and does not
change the focus of the image attained by the camera sensor. For more information,
see the ‘focus chart’ section.
36 ND Filter
Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro has internal neutral density filters. ND filters
allow you to reduce the amount of light reaching the sensor by a preset number of
exposure stops. By reducing the exposure, you can shoot at wide apertures for a
shallow depth of field in bright conditions such as outdoors on sunny days.
To adjust your neutral density setting, press the left or right ND filter buttons to cycle
through options for a clear filter, 2, 4 or 6 stops.
The ‘clear’ setting means there is no ND filter being used. From settings 2, 4 and 6
stops, the ND filters increase in density so you can decrease light if you need to.
