The Only Cinema Rig for Blackmagic Cameras: Meet the OMNIA

Blackmagic shooters have always been underserved by the cineback market. The OMNIA changes that — delivering V-Mount power, D-Tap outputs, and a professional camera rig to every Blackmagic body in the lineup.

Blackmagic Design cameras — from the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K to the 6K Pro and Cinema Camera 6K — are legendary for punching well above their price point. Blackmagic RAW, generation 5 colour science, and wide dynamic range have made them a staple on indie film sets, documentaries, and commercial productions worldwide.

But there's always been one problem: rigging them.

Traditional cineback-style camera rigs were designed around cameras with fully articulating flip screens — Sony, Panasonic, Canon. Blackmagic cameras, with their fixed rear screens and unique form factors, were simply left out. Until now.

The Rigid.PRO OMNIA Universal Cinema Rig is the first and only cineback-style rig specifically designed to work with Blackmagic cameras — alongside every other mirrorless camera brand on the market. Its adjustable quick-release mounting system solves the fixed-screen problem that made other camera rigs incompatible with Blackmagic bodies.

Cineback-style camera rigs — the kind that transform a compact mirrorless body into a box-style cinema camera with V-Mount power — have been available for Sony, Panasonic, and Canon shooters for years. But Blackmagic owners were always excluded for two key reasons:

The OMNIA solves both problems in one product.

The Solution

OMNIA: The First Cineback Rig for Blackmagic Cameras

One universal cinema rig that works with every Blackmagic camera — and every other camera you own.

The OMNIA is the next evolution of the cineback-style camera rig, developed over two years from direct filmmaker feedback. It works with every camera body and cage — or even without a cage. For Blackmagic shooters, it's the only way to get V-Mount power, D-Tap distribution, and cinema rig ergonomics without an unwieldy DIY setup.

1. It Actually Works with Fixed Screens

This is the big one. Traditional cineback rigs sit flush against the back of the camera, completely blocking fixed LCD screens. The OMNIA's Arca-Swiss quick-release base plate allows you to slide the camera forward within the rig, creating clearance behind the body to view and interact with the screen. No external monitor required (unless you want one). This single feature is why the OMNIA is the only cineback-style rig that works with Blackmagic cameras.

2. V-Mount Power for Power-Hungry Blackmagic Bodies

Blackmagic cameras are notorious for their battery consumption. The BMPCC 4K drains LP-E6 batteries in under an hour. The 6K Pro and Cinema Camera 6K are only marginally better. The OMNIA provides V-Mount or Gold Mount battery power with four D-Tap outputs, a master power switch, and an LCD voltage display — giving you all-day power for the camera, a monitor, a wireless transmitter, and audio gear from a single battery. No more swapping batteries every 45 minutes.

3. No Cage Required

The OMNIA works with any cage or without a cage entirely. Simply attach the included Arca-Swiss base plate to the bottom of your Blackmagic camera and drop it into the rig. This is a major advantage for BMPCC shooters who want to keep things lightweight.

4. Arca-Swiss Quick Release

Pop your Blackmagic camera in and out of the rig in seconds. The integrated Arca-Swiss quick release system lets you instantly transition between handheld, gimbal, tripod, and fully rigged configurations without unscrewing anything. Essential for documentary and run-and-gun work where speed matters.

5. Works Across the Entire Blackmagic Lineup

Own a BMPCC 6K Pro and a Cinema Camera 6K? One OMNIA handles both. Upgrading from a Pocket Camera to a Cinema Camera 6K? The same rig. The universal design means you never need to buy a new camera rig base when you change Blackmagic bodies — or even if you add a Sony, Panasonic, or Canon to your kit.

6. Hot Shoe Stays Open

The OMNIA keeps the hot shoe completely clear for mounting microphone receivers, wireless audio adapters, or any other accessories. No blocked mounting points, no compromises.

7. Professional Ergonomics for Indie Budgets

Blackmagic cameras deliver cinema-quality images at a fraction of the cost of an ARRI or RED. The OMNIA follows the same philosophy — at $369 USD, it gives your Blackmagic body the form factor, power infrastructure, and mounting options of camera systems costing ten times more. It's the fastest way to go from a bare Blackmagic body to a fully rigged cinema camera.

The Blackmagic Battery Problem — Solved

A BMPCC 4K with an LP-E6 battery lasts about 45 minutes. The 6K Pro with an NP-F570 gets roughly 60–90 minutes. Even the Cinema Camera 6K does better, but you're still swapping batteries multiple times per shoot day.

Attach a V-Mount battery to the OMNIA and you get 6–12+ hours of continuous power depending on the battery capacity — plus enough D-Tap outputs to run your monitor, wireless video, and audio gear simultaneously. One battery, one rig, an entire shoot day.
