The Blackmagic Design Ursa Broadcast (B4) w/ Fujinon LA16x8BRM-XB1A is an affordable, high-quality, 4K camera and lens kit based on the B4 / 2/3 sensor broadcast type system. Key features include:
UHD 4K sensor capable of recording up to 60 fps
Fujinon LA16x8BRM 16x 8mm-128mm f/1.9-2.8 zoom lens w/ servo
Records to CFast 2.0 or UHS-II SD media (not included)
Designed for 4K 2/3-inch type sensor coverage when used with B4 mount and lenses
An URSA Made for Broadcast. A couple small changes to the URSA Mini Pro 4.6K make the Blackmagic Design URSABroadcast (B4) a broadcast-style camera with excellent video quality, an affordable price, and rare internal recording. The sensor is 2/3-inch and can record up to UHD4K at 60 fps.
Fujinon LA16x8BRM ENG Lens. The lens included in this kit has a 16x zoom ratio with a focal length of 8mm to 128mm. Lens functions are controlled by an attached servo grip when powered by the Ursa’s lens port. The LA16x8BRM is smaller and lighter than comparable 4K B4 lenses without compromising maintained focus throughout the zoom range of ease-of-use or quality. The lens has a maximum relative aperture of f/1.9 at 8mm and 2.8 and 128mm.
Compact Handheld Design. The URSA Mini Broadcast maintains the form factor of other URSA Mini cameras. The optional Blackmagic Design Shoulder Mount Kit and URSAViewfinder make the camera even more versatile, allowing you to swap it from hand-held shooting to over-the-shoulder to a tripod with ease.
Touchscreen Controls. Despite its reduced size, the URSAMini Pro comes equipped with a five-inch folding monitor. Its touchscreen interface allows access to all menu functions, eliminating the hassle of menu-diving.
Anton Bauer Gold Mount. When you rent an URSA, it’ll come with an Anton Bauer Gold Mount battery plate pre-attached. We include one Anton Bauer Titon 90 Gold Mount battery and one Anton Bauer Twin 60 Charger. If you need additional batteries and chargers, you can rent them by following the above links.
Is this camera/lens combo compatible with any zoom controllers?
Any of our Libec LANC controllers are capable of triggering record or engaging the servo zoom from the camera’s LANC port. Iris and focus can only be controlled through the camera body or lens.
Will this camera work with any B4 lens?
Yes. Any B4 mount broadcast lens for 2/3-inch systems will mount to this camera. A broadcast lens control connector is also available for lens power and control of compatible lenses.
Does this B4 lens feature an extender?
No. This lens does not feature an extender.
Are there any recording limitations with using SD memory?
Raw HD and 4K/30p ProRes can be recorded to UHS-II SD memory cards. You can find a list of manufacturer-recommended SD cards and formats they support here.
If you’re looking to record in higher resolutions and frame rates, you’ll need to use CFast 2.0 memory cards. You can find a list of manufacturer-recommended CFast 2.0 cards and formats they support here.
