BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Blackmagic URSA Mini Is Coming! 15 Stops of Dynamic Range, 4.6K Sensor & Much More! | Noam Kroll

Only site on this camera that I found so far. I'll see if theirs others.

Official info will be coming in tomorrow morning anyway.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

If it's the same price of the URSA - maybe even cheaper? - it sounds like it could be a heck of a deal.
A shoulder mount camera, still the best camera design.

It gets SMALLER.

1) I can't believe it wasn't called the "Ursa Minor"

2) It will be 2016 before someone who purchases this unit from a re-seller actually holds it in their hands.

+1 Ursa Minor

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Orders placed... I'll let you guys know what I think of it in 2016. :)

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Reports are the Ursa Mini is going to be $2995.

The smaller thing is the Micro Cinema.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Excellent price! I was thinking it was going to be more like $4,000.
Looks like it could be a nice ENG camera, I wonder what ENG lens will work well with it.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Beware, there are 4 versions, depending of the resolution and the mount:

- 4K: $ 2995 (EF mount) or $ 3495 (PL mount)

- 4,6K: $ 4995 (EF mount) or $ 5495 (PL mount)

So, there is an extra + $2000 for 0,6k more resolution, and + 3 stops of dynamic range.
It's nice to have the choice.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Something to consider is that the viewfinder is optional so that will add onto the price as well.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

30p in a Global Shutter configuration? Falls slightly short of the bigger URSA which can do 60p and has a global shutter.

And no 4096x2160 ACTUAL DCI mode... We're expected to crop it to DCI ourselves?!?

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

I suspect heat will be a from the computer processioning limitation in such a small camera, plus it has a larger camera in the range. This camera has the same sensor as the Usra and assuming it records RAW, it should fit into a very low budget scenario. You want a larger pixel sensor for downscaling for resolution reasons.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

Interesting cam...but with no inbuilt ND filters I don't see the point of the extra accessories to make it run-n-gun friendly.

Pity, as ND filters are absolutely necessary as far as I am concerned - for the type of fast paced work I would use it for.

Re: BlackMagic - URSA Mini
 

I totally agree with Andy on the lack of ND filters. After being a little let down that Panasonic's new release (DVX200) is a fixed-lens camera (when I was hoping for more of an AF100 successor), I got a little excited about the URSA mini, but lack of built-in ND filters is probably a non-starter for me.
