Hi everyone,
I guess just like a lot of you, I got really excited by the announcement of the PYXIS and ended up preordering one.
Used to own the OG BMCC2.5k and the Pocket 4K. Loved those 2 cameras but due to the form factor of the 4K, ended up going with Sony FS5mkii and instantly regretted the color science of Blackmagic
At the same time, I discovered the joy of shooting with eNDs and high FPS.
At the moment, I'm really questioning myself as If I should go with the Pyxis or the URSA mini pro G2 (second hand).
I shoot weddings, corporate, construction projetcs, and products from time to time. So I need to be pretty mobile in any kind of environment (mostly uncontrolled and uneven)
I love the URSA for high FPS and ND filters, everybody seems to agree it produces exceptional images, but I read that the camera is pretty heavy.
I love the PYXIS for the weight, the form factor, full frame even tho I don't mind S35 at all, and battery consumption which will be lower than the Ursa I imagine. FPS options are bad and it seems you have to crop every time you need to use high FPS.
What would be your opinion on it ? Is the URSA so heavy it's unusable handheld for a couple of hours?
