Introducing the Blackmagic Design Studio Camera 4K Pro G2: Compact Brilliance for Live Production Overview: Designed for professional SDI switchers, the Blackmagic Design Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 offers live streaming plus pro connections like 12G-SDI and 10GbE Ethernet. The inclusion of an Ethernet connection allows the setup of an SMPTE-style workflow using a more affordable single-cable setup with PoE (power over ethernet) and the 12G-SDI output and program return provide camera control, talkback, and tally functions. This latest 4K Camera Pro model has also the same features as large studio cameras, miniaturized into a single compact and portable design. The Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 offers an array of advanced features including a built-in color corrector, Blackmagic RAW recording to USB disks, live streaming, and more. You can even add a focus and zoom demand for lens control! Plus with digital film camera dynamic range and color science, the Blackmagic Studio video camera can handle extremely difficult lighting conditions while producing cinematic-looking images. The sensor features an ISO of up to 25,600 so you can create amazing images even in dimly lit venues. It even works under the moonlight! More details: Designed for Live Production - While Blackmagic Studio Camera is designed for live production, it’s not limited to use with a live switcher! That’s because it records Blackmagic RAW to USB disks, so it can be used in any situation where you use a tripod! The large 7" viewfinder makes it perfect for work such as chat shows, television production, broadcast news, sports, education, conference presentations, and even weddings! Because it’s so lightweight, it’s perfect when you're constantly changing locations and doing different kinds of work. Exceptional Low-light Performance - In advanced cameras, ISO is a measurement of the image sensor’s sensitivity to light. This means the higher the ISO the more gain can be added so it’s possible to shoot in natural light, or even at night! The Blackmagic Studio Camera features gain from -12dB (100 ISO) up to +36dB (25,600 ISO) so it's optimized to reduce grain and noise in images while maintaining the full dynamic range of the sensor. Affordable Photographic Lenses - With the popular EF or MFT lens mounts, Blackmagic Studio Cameras are compatible with a wide range of affordable photographic lenses. Photographic lenses are of incredible quality because they're designed for use in high-resolution photography. Plus, the active lens mount lets you adjust the lens remotely! To eliminate the need to reach around to adjust the lens manually, the optional focus and zoom demands let you adjust the lens from the tripod handles just like a large studio camera! Frame Shots with a Large 7" Viewfinder - The large 7" high-resolution screen will totally transform how you work with the camera because it's big enough to make framing shots much easier. The Pro models feature an HDR display with extremely high brightness, perfect outdoors in the sunlight! On-screen overlays show status and record parameters, histograms, focus peaking indicators, levels, frame guides, and more. You can even apply 3D LUTs for monitoring shots with the desired color and look. Built-in Tally for On-air Status - The Blackmagic Studio Camera features a very large tally light that illuminates red for on-air, green for preview, and orange for ISO recording. The tally light also includes clip-on transparent camera numbers, so it's easy for talent to see camera numbers from up to 20 feet away! The camera supports the SDI tally standard used on all ATEM live production switchers and the HDMI tally used on ATEM Mini switchers. This means that a director can cut between cameras and the tally information will be sent back to the cameras via the SDI program return feed, lighting up the tally light on the camera whenever it's on air. Four Ways to Connect: Connect via HDMI - Using the HDMI output, you can connect to switchers such as ATEM Mini! Plus the HDMI connection supports sending tally, color corrector control, and record trigger back to the camera from the switcher. Connect via SDI - The SDI model uses the SDI output and the SDI program return for 2 way talkback between the camera and any SDI ATEM switcher. Tally and control are also sent to the camera via the SDI program return. Connect via Ethernet - The 10G Ethernet connection allows all signals and camera power using a single Cat 6A copper Ethernet cable! That includes the camera video, program return, tally, talkback, camera control, and more! Connect via USB Disk - You can even shoot without a switcher as the large screen makes the camera fantastic for shooting while recording to Blackmagic RAW on a USB flash disk. The big screen makes framing shots very easy! USB Expansion Port for Accessories - The Blackmagic Studio Camera features a high-speed USB-C expansion port that allows you to record to external disks or connect to a wide range of accessories. Plug in an external USB flash disk and the camera can record high-quality 12-bit Blackmagic RAW files for later editing and color correction. That means you can just move the disk to a computer to work, and you don't need to waste time with file copying. You can even plug in optional focus and zoom demands to allow full lens control. Blackmagic Raw Quality - Blackmagic RAW eliminates this problem so you get stunning images with incredible detail and rich color throughout the whole post-production pipeline. Blackmagic RAW also saves camera settings as metadata so you can change ISO, white balance, and exposure later in DaVinci Resolve. Plus the files are small and fast, so editing responsiveness is incredible. Only Blackmagic RAW gives you the highest quality, smallest files, and fastest performance! Includes Built-in Microphones - Blackmagic Studio Camera includes built-in microphones so you get sound included in the design making setup much faster. Plus the built-in microphones are shock and wind resistant, so you get great sound even in tough conditions! With each microphone placed at the edges of the screen, you get the advantage of the studio camera design for better stereo separation than what is possible on a regular video camera. There’s also a 3.5mm audio input for connecting video camera microphones as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack. Powered by Blackmagic OS - With the advanced Blackmagic OS, you get an intuitive and user-friendly camera operating system based on the latest technology. It features the same controls and menus as other Blackmagic Design cameras so you can move between cameras on set easily. The interface uses simple taps and swipe gestures to adjust settings, add metadata, and view the recording status. You also get full control over advanced camera features such as on-screen focus and exposure tools, 3D LUTs, HDR, metadata entry, timecode, Blackmagic RAW settings, and more! Supports 3D Luts for Fil Looks - When Blackmagic RAW files use logarithmic film gamma to preserve the camera dynamic range, 3D LUTs can be used to convert the images on the viewfinder display from looking flat and washed out. 3D LUTs solve this problem because they convert the image just before it's displayed on the LCD. This allows the film gamma images being recorded to be converted to nicer-looking images on the LCD. 3D LUTs are also saved into the Blackmagic RAW files so they can be used in later post-production, but they are never burned into the Blackmagic RAW image data, so you always have the option to disable them. This means the 3D LUT is transported in the Blackmagic RAW file, but only used when you enable it. Localized in 13 Popular Languages - The Blackmagic Studio Cameras are designed to be used worldwide so they support 13 popular languages! When setting up your camera, you can choose to work in English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. It’s easy to switch to another language simply by going into the menu settings. When switching between languages, all the on-screen overlays, heads-up displays, and setup menus will be displayed in the selected language and you can change languages any time you like!
