With a large format 12K sensor and an included electronic viewfinder (EVF), this camera provides unmatched resolution and visual detail, making it perfect for feature films, VFX-heavy productions, and high-end commercial work.
12K Large Format Sensor:
The core of the URSA Cine 12K LF is its large format 12K Super 35mm sensor, which captures an incredible 12,288 x 6,480 pixels—providing over 80 megapixels per frame. This ultra-high resolution allows filmmakers to capture incredible detail and texture, making it ideal for large-scale productions, VFX compositing, and large-format displays. The sensor's large format delivers a cinematic look with a shallow depth of field, creating stunning images with beautiful bokeh and excellent separation between subject and background.
Flexible Frame Rates and Resolutions:
The camera offers flexible recording options, supporting a range of resolutions and frame rates to meet the needs of various production workflows. You can record in 12K at up to 60 frames per second (fps), 8K at 120fps, and 4K at a remarkable 240fps. These options provide filmmakers with the ability to capture super high-resolution content for cinematic productions or use lower resolutions at higher frame rates for action-packed sequences or slow-motion footage.
Advanced EVF (Electronic Viewfinder):
This bundle includes the Blackmagic URSA EVF, designed to provide cinematographers with a high-quality, responsive viewfinder experience. The 1920 x 1080 OLED display offers crisp, clear visuals, helping filmmakers achieve accurate framing and focus in any shooting environment. The EVF's built-in status information, customizable diopter, and tilt-adjustable design make it a valuable tool for professionals looking for precision in handheld or shoulder-mounted shooting.
14 Stops of Dynamic Range:
With 14 stops of dynamic range, the URSA Cine 12K LF captures a broad range of detail in both highlights and shadows, allowing for better performance in high-contrast lighting situations. This wide dynamic range makes it easier to preserve fine detail and color information, giving filmmakers the flexibility to adjust exposure and lighting in post-production without sacrificing image quality.
Blackmagic RAW Recording:
The camera records using Blackmagic RAW, a highly efficient codec that delivers stunning image quality while keeping file sizes manageable. Blackmagic RAW allows for real-time playback of 12K footage on most computers, and it preserves maximum color data, giving filmmakers more control in post-production for color grading, VFX, and mastering. The codec also offers customizable compression ratios, enabling users to balance between quality and file size based on the demands of their project.
Interchangeable Lens Mounts:
The interchangeable PL, EF, and F mount options allow cinematographers to use a wide range of professional cinema lenses, providing flexibility across different projects. Whether you're using high-end cinema glass or photography lenses, the URSA Cine 12K LF can adapt to your specific needs, making it highly versatile for different styles of shooting.
Built-in ND Filters and Media Options:
The URSA Cine 12K LF includes built-in ND filters that offer 2, 4, and 6 stops of filtration, allowing for quick adjustments in bright lighting conditions without affecting depth of field or exposure settings. For media storage, the camera provides dual CFast 2.0 slots, SD UHS-II slots, and a USB-C expansion port for external SSD recording, giving you multiple options to choose from based on your storage needs.
Blackmagic Color Science:
Featuring Generation 5 Color Science, the camera delivers superior color accuracy, natural skin tones, and rich, lifelike images. This color science is engineered for cinematic visuals, making it easier to achieve stunning results straight out of the camera, and provides excellent integration with DaVinci Resolve for post-production workflows.
Ideal for High-End Film and VFX:
The URSA Cine 12K LF is particularly suited for VFX-heavy productions due to its incredible resolution and detail. With 12K resolution, filmmakers can create visual effects with precise tracking and compositing, while also allowing for significant reframing or zooming without losing quality. This makes it a top choice for blockbuster films, commercials, or productions where image fidelity is critical.
The Blackmagic Design URSA Cine 12K LF + EVF package combines cutting-edge 12K resolution with practical features like a high-quality EVF, built-in ND filters, and interchangeable lens mounts, offering cinematographers and filmmakers the ultimate tool for high-end production. Whether capturing dramatic scenes for a feature film or creating detailed VFX shots, this camera provides the flexibility, quality, and performance that professionals demand.
