Blackmagic Design URSA Broadcast G2 – 4K broadcast and 6K film camera with B4 mount
URSA Broadcast G2 is a camera for traditional and online broadcasters with a "3 in 1" design: it works as a 4K production camera, a 4K studio camera or a 6K digital film camera. It has a 2/3" B4 mount for broadcast lenses, an active EF mount included, 4 position ND filters and dual native ISO (0 and 18 dB gain).
What the URSA Broadcast G2 is for
It is designed for news, events, sports, TV studios and live productions: with B4 lenses it behaves like an ENG and studio camera, with the EF mount and full sensor it becomes a 6K film camera for documentaries and quality productions.
Recording
It records H.265, ProRes and Blackmagic RAW to 2 CFast 2.0 slots, 2 SD UHS-II slots, external disks over USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 or 2.5" SSDs with the optional URSA Mini Recorder. The Media page in the camera OS lets you sort and check clips directly in camera.
Connections and power
SDI output, 2 XLR audio inputs switchable between mic, line and AES with phantom power, 4" touchscreen, +12V outputs on 4-pin XLR and D-Tap. External 12V 100W supply and rear mount for V-mount or gold mount battery plates.
Software
Every Blackmagic camera includes DaVinci Resolve Studio, the editing, grading, effects and audio software used in film and television, which reads Blackmagic RAW files directly.
