The URSA 4K resolution v2 Digital Cinema Camera having active PL Mount from Black magic design includes a form factor which is structured to make it more flexible to utilize on each size of productions. From a single operator to a complete camera crew, on the heart of the imaging system, URSA 4K resolution feature a resolution of 3840 x 2160p, global shutter CMOS sensor with 12 stops of dynamic range. The camera records and provides output in resolution of 2160p format. 16:9 standards with completely 4 times the resolution of 1080p often referred to as Ultra Hd.
By using URSA two formats can be recorded. The first format is 12-bit Cinema DNG RAW, which is compressed RAW codec constructed to give you the highest latitude for image manipulation in post production. The second format is Apple ProRes 422 (HQ), a debayered for simpler editing and playback in most of the applications use for video editing. In addition to this, ProRes also need reasonably low storage room for broad recording times. Video is recorded in CFast 2 memory cards, and the camera features 2 slots that allow you to hot exchange media for constant and continuous recordings.
URSA features a 10.1inches, resolution of 1080p flip-out LCD screen so that you don’t necessarily require an on-camera monitor. Furthermore, there are 2 5 inches capacitive touch screens, one on all sides of the body. These screens let you to access the menu system and can display data as audio waveforms and time code.
That’s how you can change and color correct the footage; particularly footage shot in Cinema DNG RAW format, URSA features DaVinci resolve software dongle for windows and OS X.
Supports Diverse User Groups
From solo camera operator to complete-scale productions, when utilized on jobs with a huge crew, you can only dress camera with superior quality cinema lenses, matte box, follow focus, rods and much more.

The machined design of aluminum is constructed to tremendously robust and has been possibly engineered in a way that it could be handled in mind of lot of people.
Version 2 Super 35 Global Shutter CMOS Sensor
The 4K resolution sensor uses a global shutter because of which it will be free from the flash banding experienced and motion artifact with rolling shutter sensor. This package includes a broad 12 stop dynamic range to make sure detail is preserved even in shadow and highlighted portions of image and provides even more information for working in the adjustment of colors. Size of the sensor makes it attainable to make the shallow depth again of field appear popularly associated with film. This size is minor more than the APS-C DSLR format and will hold the majority of lenses that cover a circle of APS-C image.
Additionally, the v2 sensor supports ProRes 444 and also 120 FPS in RAW.
Dual CFast 2.0 Card Slots
It is possible to keep recording indefinitely with 2 slots of card. You only have to switch to a new card in the second slot and then switch the first card to offload to a storage device or a computer. By using CFast 2 media it is probable to record even at high bitrates demanded by RAW capture even without dropping of frames.
Built-In Scopes
URSA comprises scopes for audio levels, exposure and focus. There is also a screen that is dedicated for camera supporters so they can bring parameters up to date and check independently of camera operator.
Field Upgradable Sensor
When you remove four bolts then modular camera turret can be removed which is featured by URSA. The lens mount, sensor and lens control connections included in camera turret that can be upgraded in future when new sensors will be developed.
Broadcast Connections
Standard connectors of BNC means you won’t require to concern about proprietary or custom cabling solutions. URSA has a 12G-SDI result which can be transformed to HD or utilized directly for whole Ultra HD 4K resolution. The 12G-SDI input that can result a video on 10inches LCD screen when you cover events that are live or working with exterior sources of video. A separate SDI input which gives output of 1080pixels resolution only is available for connecting monitors and EVFs with each other. There are 2 inputs for audio of XLR with +48 V phantom powers. You also have time code for in and out to help syncing with further separate recorders of audio or cameras.
LANC Port
On 2.5 mm sub mini-connector a LANC is provided. It can be controlled by iris, focus and START/STOP.
Supports Standard Battery Plates

URSA also features an XLR 4 pins power output so you can power a camera of 12V accessory but don’t require an extra battery.
Lots of Mounting Points
There are number of 3/8”-16 valve pores on the top surface of camera so you can bond mounting accessories and articulating arms. With the top of detachable handle there are even more holes of 1/4”-20 size. Additionally, at the base of camera there is a built-in mount of 15mm LWS spaced rods. By adding pair of standard size of 15mm rods you can add accessories as matte box and follow focus. A V-lock delta interface, it permits you to connect camera to tripods via ENG-style high-speed release system like VCT-14.
