Blackmagic Design PYXIS 12K Cinema Camera (ARRI PL)

Pixon Media Trading introduces a full‑frame 12K cinema box camera engineered for high‑end productions, combining a large‑format RGBW sensor with a compact, rig‑friendly design for fast setup, flexible configuration, and exceptional image quality across demanding shooting environments.

Full‑Frame 12K Sensor With Cinematic Latitude

A 36 × 24mm RGBW sensor delivers a native resolution of 12,288 × 8040, enabling shallow depth of field, full‑sensor anamorphic capture, and rich color reproduction. With 16 stops of dynamic range and dual‑native ISO up to 25,600, the camera produces low‑noise imagery in challenging lighting conditions.

Updated Firmware for Enhanced Capture Tools

The latest firmware adds key features including pre‑recording, adjustable frame‑guide opacity, expanded REST API commands, proxy‑recording inhibition, four‑channel audio support, and mono headphone monitoring—streamlining both on‑set operation and remote control workflows.

Flexible Film Formats and Aspect Ratios

The large sensor supports multiple aspect ratios without cropping, including true 6:5 anamorphic. A Super 35 window mode provides instant close‑up framing from open‑gate shots, offering versatility for narrative, commercial, and documentary work.

High‑Resolution Recording and Frame Rates

Capture resolutions include:

• 12K 3:2 open gate up to 40 fps
• 12K 2.4:1 up to 60 fps
• 8K up to 112 fps A dedicated HFR button enables quick switching to high‑frame‑rate modes without navigating menus.

HDR Imaging and Dual‑Native ISO

With 16 stops of dynamic range, the camera preserves highlight and shadow detail in complex lighting. Optimized for ISO 800, it supports ISO 200–3200 with a maximum ISO of 25,600, maintaining clean results while retaining full dynamic range.

Optional ENG‑Style Handle and Grip

Optional accessories transform the camera into an ENG‑style system. The handle includes a daylight‑visible OLED viewfinder, zoom rocker, run/stop control, and stereo microphone. The grip adds a zoom rocker and ergonomic support for handheld shooting.

Customizable Rigging and Mounting Options

Aerospace‑grade aluminum construction provides durability while remaining lightweight. Multiple 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 threads support mounting on gimbals, cranes, drones, and cages. Included side plates offer additional mounting points, with optional rosette plates available for expanded configurations.

Integrated LCD Monitor and Onboard Controls

A built‑in 4″ HDR‑compatible touchscreen (1500 cd/m²) enables framing, focusing, and reviewing footage without external monitors. On‑screen overlays display key tools such as histograms, levels, frame guides, and LUT previews. Physical controls include ISO, white balance, shutter, a scroll wheel, and three customizable function buttons.

Post‑Production‑Ready Recording Formats

The camera records in Blackmagic RAW for maximum flexibility in post‑production, preserving detail and color information. Real‑time H.264 proxy recording supports fast sharing and remote editing workflows. Files are compatible with major GPU‑accelerated platforms.

Multiple Media Options for High‑Speed Capture

Two CFexpress Type‑B slots and a USB‑C expansion port support recording to internal cards, external SSDs, or flash media. High‑speed CFexpress cards allow over an hour of 6K recording on a 256GB card.

Cloud‑Connected Workflow for Remote Collaboration

Proxy files can be uploaded directly to cloud platforms for near‑real‑time editing. Remote teams can begin cutting scenes almost immediately, supporting news, live events, and fast‑turnaround productions.
