Extremely large format digital film camera with a 17520 x 8040 65mm RGBW sensor, 16 stops dynamic range, built in cloud storage module with 8TB of memory, interchangeable lens mounts and URSA Cine EVF!

Introducing the World's Most Advanced Digital Film Camera!

Blackmagic URSA Cine is a revolutionary digital film camera platform combining advanced technologies with total integration into the latest post-production workflows. It's the first digital film camera with high-speed network storage built in and high-speed networking for cloud sync. URSA Cine introduces new large-format RGBW sensors with larger photo-sites for incredible dynamic range. You can swap between PL, LPL, EF and B4 lens mounts. Plus, URSA Cine can output live SMPTE-2110 IP video for cinematic live production. There's even WiFi and SRT streaming for remote client viewing! Industry-standard LEMO and Fischer connections make it perfect for high-end cinema production.

The world's most advanced digital film camera can now also be used for live production! That's like having two completely different cameras in a single design. Live broadcasters can finally achieve the same stunning cinematic quality once exclusive to the film industry. No other broadcast camera can match the dynamic range, frame rates and color science of Blackmagic URSA Cine. Because it handles both film and live production, you can keep the camera busy with whatever kind of work you want.

Perfect for Feature Film and Post Production

When set to record, the camera captures Blackmagic RAW to the media module. That's perfect for film shoots as you retain the full dynamic range of the sensor, so color grading can bring out the richness of every scene. Plus, real-time proxies can be recorded and synced to an off-site post-production team. You can also connect a DaVinci workstation to the camera's 10G Ethernet for on-set grading.

Add Cinematic Quality to Live Production
