Blackmagic URSA Cine 12K is a revolution in digital film with a new large format RGBW 36 x 24mm sensor with larger photo-sites for 16 stops of dynamic range. This revolutionary model also includes interchangeable lens mounts, a dedicated assist station with a second 5" HDR LCD touchscreen, built-in ND filters, and industry-standard Lemo and Fischer connections. Blackmagic URSA Cine comes with a massive 8TB of removable high-performance media storage built-in and also includes high-speed 10G Ethernet and WiFi for fast media upload and syncing to Blackmagic Cloud.
The full sensor area gives customers a stunning 32 open gate image which lets customers reframe their shots in post-production. Customers can use the large sensor area to shoot anamorphic and deliver in a range of aspect ratios with 1.3, 1.5, 1.6, 1.66, 1.8, and 2x de-squeeze factors. Plus, customers can shoot in 4K, 8K, or 12K using the entire sensor without cropping, retaining the full field of view of their lenses. There are even 9K Super 35 4-perf, 3-perf, and 2-perf modes for full compatibility with classic cinema lenses.
Different projects require different lenses, which is why URSA Cine features an interchangeable lens mount. Customers can quickly switch between PL, LPL, EF, and Hasselblad mounts. Plus, each mount has contact pins to read lens metadata for monitoring and for use in post-production.
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. On the right side of the camera, there’s a dedicated assist station with a second 5" HDR touchscreen which allows the crew to work around the camera without needing external monitors. There’s even a dedicated focus puller’s mode to help customers get perfect focus.
Now customers can live stream from film sets. URSA Cine features a built hardware streaming engine that supports RTMP and SRT streaming to major platforms or directly to clients. Simply connect to the internet via Ethernet, high-speed WiFi, or even connect a 4G or 5G phone for mobile data.
URSA Cine includes an 8-pin Lemo power connector at the back of the camera that works with 24V and 12V power supplies. That means it’s easy to use the camera with existing power supplies, batteries, and accessories. URSA Cine comes with a massive 250W power supply and B Mount battery plate so customers can use a wide range of high voltage batteries from manufacturers such as IDX, Blueshape, Core SWX, BEBOB, and more.
URSA Cine comes with everything customers need to get started on set. Every camera comes in a rugged Pelican case with custom foam cutouts that precisely and securely fit the camera and its accessories. The PL lens mount comes preinstalled on the camera body, plus customers get an interchangeable locking EF mount for a strong and secure attachment when using heavier cine lenses. Customers even get a massive 8TB Media Module preinstalled, formatted, and ready to record. Customers also get a top handle, antennas for high-speed WiFi, baseplate, 24V power supply, and high voltage B mount battery plate for quick setup.
