Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Pro

The professional SDI or HDMI mixer model delivers all the features of the Plus model plus 12G SDI, professional XLR audio, a brighter HDR LCD, a 5-pin talkback connector, and 10G Ethernet IP.

Designed for live productions

While the Blackmagic Studio Camera is designed for live productions with mixers, it can be used in other ways as well. Because it records Blackmagic RAW to USB discs, it's handy in all scenarios with tripods. Because of the large 7" viewfinder, the camera is perfect for chat shows, TV productions, news broadcasts, sports, education, conferences, and even weddings. The large bright display with side grips, touch screen and buttons makes it easy to follow along with settings and still comfortable over long periods of time. Because it weighs so little, the camera is ideal for frequent location changes and a wide variety of tasks.

Revolutionary studio camera design

Large broadcasters use expensive studio cameras that are massive but not particularly portable. Because of its compact design of camera and viewfinder, the distinctive Blackmagic Studio Camera offers the same advantages as the big studio cameras. Its lightweight fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate miniature body is designed with innovative technology. The camera is designed for live productions. With the large 7" viewfinder, tracking and framing settings is easy. The touch screen offers menus for camera settings. There are knobs for brightness, contrast and focus peaking. A tripod mount with mounting plate for quick setup is included!

Superior low-light performance

On modern cameras, the ISO setting is a measure of the image sensor's sensitivity to light. For nighttime shooting in natural light, the higher the ISO, the more gain is possible. The Blackmagic Studio Camera's gain of -12 dB (100 ISO) to +36 dB (25,600 ISO) is optimized to reduce film grain and image noise while preserving full dynamic range. The primary native ISO sensitivity of 400 is made for studio lighting. The secondary high-base ISO of 3,200 is perfect for shooting in sparse lighting. Gain can be specified from the camera or from a mixer via remote SDI or Ethernet control.

Built-in tally for on-air status

The Blackmagic Studio Cameras' giant tally light glows red in on-air mode, green in preview mode, and orange in ISO recording. To help performers see camera numbers from up to 20 feet, the tally comes with clear clip-on camera numbers. For the Tally, Blackmagic Studio Cameras support the same SDI standard as ATEM Live production mixers and the same HDMI standard as ATEM Mini mixers. When the director makes camera edits, the tally information is sent back to the camera via the fed-back program feed via SDI. The tally light comes on when the camera is live. SDI tally eliminates complex wiring and makes setup faster.
