Budget-Friendly Broadcast Camera. The Blackmagic URSA Broadcast G2 Camera is more than capable of functioning as a broadcast camera with ENG camera controls and a low-light sensor, but why stop there? Tack on an advanced YRGB color corrector, full remote camera control, support for a wide range of lenses, high dynamic range at 13 stops, and support for Blackmagic RAW recording, and you’ve got a studio and field powerhouse, capable of performing in almost any situation.

Eat Your Fiber! The Blackmagic Design Camera Fiber Converter attaches directly to the back of the camera or the Studio Fiber Converter via a separately available SMPTE fiber optic cable for connection up to 1.6 miles away. This attachment moves all necessary functions to the back of the camera for ease of operator access.

Studio Fiber Converter. The Studio Fiber Converter offers a variety of connectors designed to ensure a seamless production. On the rear panel, you’ll find SDI connections for HD or UHD 4K video and HD return feeds, four XLR connectors for audio, reference in and out, PTZ and intercom/tally on D connectors, Ethernet, and SFP fiber. The front panel offers a single MPTE fiber connector for the Camera Fiber Converter and a 5-inch display.

Studio-Style Ursa Viewfinder. The Blackmagic Design URSA Studio Viewfinder G2 is designed for Blackmagic’s compact URSA line of cameras like the Blackmagic URSA Broadcast G2 Camera – B4 and Ursa Mini Pro.

ENG-Style Shooting from a Cinema Camera. Enjoy the comfort and balance of an ENG-style shoulder-mount configuration with all the benefits of a large-sensor cinema-style camera with the Blackmagic Design Shoulder Mount Kit for URSA Mini. The shoulder pad adds support for 15mm rods (a pair of 9-inch rods is included) and accessories including matte boxes, follow focuses, and front handles to complete your kit. It also adds the option of using VCT-based quick release plates just like a traditional ENG camera.

Tripod Adapter. The Sony VCT-14 Quick-Release Tripod Adapter is designed for accepting wedge-style mounts. This quick-release system was designed for serious loads, so there’s no need to worry about the security of your camera rig here.
