Blackmagic Design URSA Cine 12K LF Camera
Description
Capture the heart of your story with a true cinematic look and feel using the redesigned URSA Cine 12K LF Camera from Blackmagic Design. The new URSA Cine 12K sports a gorgeous new cinematic 12K full-frame 36 x 24mm sensor with an advertised 16 stops of dynamic range and Blackmagic RAW capture up to 12K 3:2 open gate. The versatile camera features Wi-Fi and SRT live streaming, built-in ND filters, LEMO and Fischer standard control/power connections, and high-speed networking for cloud storage and M.2 SSD media, and it comes default with an industry-standard PL mount.
Cinematic Large-Format Sensor
The URSA Cine camera features a revolutionary new sensor designed for incredible quality images at all resolutions from 4K to a massive 12K. The larger sensor builds on the technology of URSA Mini Pro 12K with larger photo-sites leading to 16 stops of dynamic range. The unique RGBW architecture provides equal amounts of red, green, and blue pixels. This means it is optimized to deliver incredibly rich colors at all resolutions and provide the ultimate in image quality and flexibility. Now you can capture more detail with a wider dynamic range than ever before. Plus, in-sensor scaling means you can record at all resolutions without cropping.
Interchangeable Lens Mounts
Different projects require different lenses which is why URSA Cine features an interchangeable lens mount. You can quickly switch between PL, LPL, EF, and Hasselblad mounts. That means you can work with PL or LPL cinema lenses, EF, or large format Hasselblad photographic lenses, making URSA Cine compatible with the widest possible range of professional lenses. Imagine using modern high-speed lenses for sharp, precise images on one shoot and then shooting a period drama with vintage photographic lenses next. Plus, each mount has contact pins to read lens metadata for monitoring and for use in post-production. With URSA Cine, you have the freedom to choose the lens you need for any kind of work.
Monitoring and Camera Control
The URSA Cine lets crews work faster on set with multiple monitoring options. The fold-out monitor has a large 5" HDR touchscreen on one side and an external color status LCD on the other. You can even rotate the screen and fold it back into the camera. On the right side of the camera, there's a dedicated assist station with a second 5" HDR touchscreen which allows crew to work around the camera without needing external monitors. Plus, with a 1500 cd/m² display and removable sunshade, it's always visible, even in bright sunlight. On-screen overlays show status and record parameters, histogram, frame guides, and more. There's even a dedicated focus puller's mode to help you get perfect focus.
Industry-Standard Connections
The wide range of industry-standard connections on URSA Cine makes it perfect for high-end cinema production. The 7-pin LEMO and 3-pin Fischer connectors at the front provide record start/stop and 24V power so are ideal for onboard accessories such as focus motors. Camera power is provided by a standard 24V 8-pin LEMO connection, plus there's an additional 2-pin LEMO 12V connection at the rear for lower voltage accessories. All this means you can power accessories straight from the camera without messy external cabling. There are also two independent 12G-SDI outputs for monitoring on two different monitors with different overlays, plus 10G Ethernet for Blackmagic Cloud media syncing.
