In this video, we've put together five important things you need to be aware of if you are considering purchasing the Blackmagic Design URSA Mini 4.6K camera.
Blackmagic Camera Update 4.0 includes a completely new and re-designed user interface with simple tap and swipe gestures that give you faster access to camera controls and settings, new exposure and focus assist tools and much more. The new URSA Mini 4.6K user interface transforms the user experience and offers more intuitive and easy access to major camera parameters than ever before.
I recently had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with the Blackmagic URSA Mini 4.6K camera and went down to Kingston to get a few quick shots of the Kingston Rowing Club base in order to see what this camera can do. The first thing I noticed is the incredible dynamic range the URSA Mini possesses.
Blackmagic Design just released Camera Update 3.4, which adds SDI start/stop record trigger support to the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K, as well as support for RP-188 timecode over SDI. The firmware update is free of charge for BMPC owners and also provides a SMPTE update for the 6G-SDI output making the Production Camera 4K compatible with a larger range of external devices.
