Two complete Blackmagic 6K kits: one camera holds the whole table, the other stays on the face that matters most. The simplest way to make a conversation look like a show.
Prices include every camera’s lens, tripod, 1TB drive and batteries. Deposit hold $300 — a refundable hold, not a charge.

Kit preview: 2 Blackmagic 6K cameras on tripods (1 with Sigma 18–35mm f/1.8 Art, 1 with Tamron 24–70mm f/2.8).
Who it’s for
A host and a guest
Camera A keeps both of you in a wide shot; camera B stays on your guest, so every answer has a close-up to cut to.
Interviews and testimonials
A clean close-up for the answers, plus a wider angle to cut to when you trim them.
Solo shows and explainers
One camera straight on, one from the side. Cutting between them hides edits and keeps a long take moving.
Camera plan · drawn to scale
Where every camera goes.
Camera A shoots the whole table from the front. Camera B sits beside the host and looks past their shoulder at the guest, about 20° off the guest’s eyeline.

Distances are camera-to-face for the Pocket 6K in 6K or 5.7K: focal length × frame width ÷ 23.1 mm sensor width. In 4K the sensor crops in, so stand about 1.5× farther back. Full distance guide
Both faces equally important? Put each camera on one person instead (Sigma at 35 mm, about 1.2 m / 4 ft away) and skip the wide.
Keep camera B just outside camera A’s frame: check A’s screen and slide B out until it disappears.
Set both cameras to the same frame rate before you start (our preset is 24 fps).

Arnold was a great help. Ready when needed but also provided helpful technical info. I’d never shot on the blackmagic and his tips and preset up, made it all come together.

FAQ · 2 cameras
Questions about this kit.
Deposits, pickup times and cancellations are on the full FAQ.
Are two cameras enough for a podcast?
For two people, yes: a wide shot and one close-up gives you something to cut to in every answer. If both people talk equally, the 3-camera kit adds the second close-up for $20 more per full day.
Which lenses come with the kit?
Every camera includes one lens: Sigma 18–35, Tamron 24–70, Tamron 70–200 — or bring your own Canon EF lens. The plan above uses 1 × Sigma 18–35, 1 × Tamron 24–70; you can change any of them when you build the kit. See all lenses.
How long can each camera record?
5+ hours per camera at our podcast preset (5.7K Blackmagic RAW 12:1, 24 fps) — up to ~10 hours in 4K. Each camera records to its own 1TB drive, and the camera shows the exact time left.
Can I add lights?
Yes. Godox daylight LED softbox lights are an add-on: 1 light $10, 2 lights $20, 3 lights $25 per day. How to light a podcast.
