In this video I put side by side my beloved BMPCC6K and my new BMCC6K Full Frame. This is NOT a scientific test, but I tried my best to have the exact same settings on both cameras. The first thing I noticed was the big difference in tint calibration. The full frame seems to be more neutral, where the original Pocket 6K has a slight green tint. The windows of my apartment also have a pretty strong green tint, but the full frame seems to handle it better. I didn't match the footage in this video, but you can easily do so by bringing down the tint on the full frame or bring it up on the BMPCC6K. I also noticed less noise in the full frame at 400 ISO, but the BMCC6K is definitely noisier after you switch to 1250 and go up. I included the log clips of the last shot so you can see how is the noise in the ungraded image. Of course it was pitch black and I very rarely shoot at 3200, but it's something to keep in mind. I have to say, the noise goes away quite easily with some noise reduction. Another thing I noticed is that there are more details in the full frame image compared to the Pocket 6K. Not sure why, but the image looks a bit sharper (in a good way) and richer. Other than that the two cameras are very similar, but the absence of crop on the BMCC6K really makes it a overall better camera since I can now use my 35mm Leica R without any issues. Lastly, I didn't add any stabilization so you can see the difference when operating both cameras handheld with a 28mm lens.
