BMCC6K and Timecode?

PostFri Oct 25, 2024 3:24 pm

Hi,

Pretty new to the BBCC6K. I need to have timecode and am just beginning to inform myself about this. I see that this camera accepts TC through the 3.5 mic input. Are there certain models or formats of TC that will or won't work with this camera, or that will work better?

Thanks for any input or info

I've seen both Deity and Tentacle sync units used. Both work fine.

If you select a Tentacle Sync, you can also use it when recording video with the Blackmagic Camera app.
