The new Blackmagic URSA Broadcast G2 is an exceptional camera for traditional and online broadcasters. The three cameras in one design allow it to work as a 4K production camera, a 4K studio camera, or a 6K digital film camera! It’s a perfect solution for broadcasters because it uses the lenses and batteries you already own! You can record to standard SD cards, UHS-II cards, CFast 2.0 cards, or external USB disks using standard file formats such as H.265, ProRes, and Blackmagic RAW. This means it’s compatible with all video software and broadcast media management systems. You can even change the lens mount! No other broadcast camera is so flexible!

Exceptional Low-Light Performance

The new URSA Broadcast features incredible low-light performance, so you can shoot using ambient light or even under moonlight! In advanced cameras, ISO measures the image sensor’s sensitivity to light. The Blackmagic URSA Broadcast G2 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 sensor’s full dynamic range. The primary native ISO is 400, ideal for studio lighting use. Then, the secondary high base ISO of 3200 is perfect when shooting in dimly lit environments. The gain can be set via a camera switch, the LCD menu, or remotely using the SDI remote camera control protocol.

Built In Optical ND Filters

URSA Broadcast G2 features high-quality neutral density (ND) filters that let you quickly reduce the amount of light entering the camera. The ¼, 1/16th, and 1/64th stop filters have been specifically designed to match the image sensor and color science of URSA Broadcast G2, providing you with additional latitude and better colorimetry. This lets you use different combinations of aperture and shutter angle in a broader range of situations. The IR filters have been designed to filter optical and IR wavelengths evenly, eliminating IR contamination. Plus, the filter status on the LCD can be displayed as a fraction, number, or stop reduction!
