Blackmagic PYXIS Pro Handle
The Blackmagic Design PYXIS Pro Handle transforms your Blackmagic PYXIS into a versatile run‑and‑gun camera rig, perfect for ENG, documentary, and broadcast‑style productions. This professional top handle mounts securely to the camera body, adding a comfortable grip and ergonomic control surface without compromising the camera’s portable form factor. Its lightweight aluminum construction balances durability with mobility, making handheld shoots and tight spaces easier to navigate.
At the heart of the Pro Handle is a built‑in HD OLED viewfinder with precision glass optics. The pivoting eyepiece houses a proximity sensor for instant wake‑on‑look functionality, while a digital focus chart and ±4 diopter adjustment ensure tack‑sharp monitoring in any lighting condition. Frame guides, status overlays, and critical settings are displayed clearly, giving operators confidence when shooting outdoors or under challenging angles.
Professional audio capture is integrated directly into the handle via a high‑quality stereo microphone with an ultra‑low noise floor. This built‑in mic lets you record clean guide tracks on location without carrying extra audio recorders, and interfaces seamlessly with the camera’s phantom‑powered XLR inputs when more advanced sound is required. The result is synchronized, broadcast‑ready audio that keeps pace with your video.
Control is always at your fingertips thanks to a record start/stop button, an easy‑reach assignable zoom rocker for compatible lenses, and four user‑programmable function buttons. Whether toggling tally, marking clips, or triggering camera features, these buttons streamline your workflow. Two 1/4" accessory mounts let you add lights, microphones, or wireless receivers for a fully customized rig.
Connectivity and power are handled via a single locking USB‑C cable, which supplies both data and juice to the handle. Firmware updates and feature enhancements install in seconds through Blackmagic OS, ensuring the handle always stays in sync with the latest camera software. Integration with ATEM switchers and DaVinci Resolve lets you control on‑board settings directly from your live production environment.
Built for reliability, the PYXIS Pro Handle operates from 5°C to 40°C and up to 90% non‑condensing humidity. Its rugged mount and secure locking fasteners prevent unwanted movement, even on the bumpiest shoots. Included in the box are the handle assembly, USB‑C cable, and a welcome wallet with a QR code for setup software—backed by a one‑year limited manufacturer's warranty for peace of mind.
