The larger sensor builds on the technology of URSA Mini Pro 12K with larger photo-sites leading to 16 stops of dynamic range. The unique RGBW architecture provides equal amounts of red, green, and blue pixels. This means it is optimized to deliver incredibly rich colors at all resolutions and provide the ultimate in image quality and flexibility. Now you can capture more detail with a wider dynamic range than ever before. Plus, in-sensor scaling means you can record at all resolutions without cropping.
The URSA Cine is designed to meet the demands of any high-end production. The evenly weighted camera body is built with a robust magnesium alloy chassis and lightweight carbon fiber polycarbonate composite skin to help you move quickly on set. Soft-touch backlit buttons make controls easy to see in all conditions. There’s a 5″ fold-out touchscreen for reviewing shots and accessing camera settings, plus a dedicated assist station on the other side of the camera, with a 5″ LCD and full camera controls. Standard LEMO and Fischer connectors let you control the camera remotely while providing power for lens motors and other accessories. You also get 12G-SDI out, 10G Ethernet, USB-C, XLR audio, and more.
The large-format sensor in URSA Cine provides the ultimate in flexibility for aspect ratios, lenses, and delivery formats. The full-frame sensor area gives you a stunning 3:2 open gate image which lets you reframe your shots in post-production. Or you can use the large sensor area to shoot anamorphic and deliver in a range of aspect ratios with 1.3, 1.5, 1.6, 1.66, 1.8, and 2x de-squeeze factors. Plus, you can shoot in 4K, 8K, or 12K using the entire sensor without cropping, retaining the full field of view of your lenses. There are even 9K Super35 4-perf, 3-perf, and 2-perf modes for full compatibility with classic cinema lenses. All this lets you create distinctive content in the highest quality.
Different projects require different lenses which is why URSA Cine features an interchangeable lens mount. You can quickly switch between PL, LPL, EF, and Hasselblad mounts. That means you can work with PL or LPL cinema lenses, EF, or large format Hasselblad photographic lenses, making URSA Cine compatible with the widest possible range of professional lenses. Imagine using modern high-speed lenses for sharp, precise images on one shoot and then shooting a period drama with vintage photographic lenses next. Plus, each mount has contact pins to read lens metadata for monitoring and for use in post-production. With URSA Cine, you have the freedom to choose the lens you need for any kind of work.
The URSA Cine lets crews work faster on set with multiple monitoring options. The fold-out monitor has a large 5″ HDR touchscreen on one side and an external color status LCD on the other. You can even rotate the screen and fold it back into the camera. On the right side of the camera, there’s a dedicated assist station with a second 5″ HDR touchscreen which allows crew to work around the camera without needing external monitors. Plus, with a 1500 cd/m² display and removable sunshade, it’s always visible, even in bright sunlight. On-screen overlays show status and record parameters, histogram, frame guides, and more. There’s even a dedicated focus puller’s mode to help you get perfect focus.
The wide range of industry-standard connections on URSA Cine makes it perfect for high-end cinema production. The 7-pin LEMO and 3-pin Fischer connectors at the front provide record start/stop and 24V power so are ideal for onboard accessories such as focus motors. Camera power is provided by a standard 24V 8-pin LEMO connection, plus there’s an additional 2-pin LEMO 12V connection at the rear for lower voltage accessories. All this means you can power accessories straight from the camera without messy external cabling. There are also two independent 12G-SDI outputs for monitoring on two different monitors with different overlays, plus 10G Ethernet for Blackmagic Cloud media syncing.
Blackmagic RAW is a revolutionary format designed to capture and preserve the quality of the sensor data from your camera. Blackmagic RAW files store camera metadata, lens data, white balance, digital slate information, and custom LUTs to ensure consistency of image on set and through post-production. Constant quality options lock the quality level, allowing compression to adapt, matching the detail of the scene. Constant bit rate encoding options are designed to give you the best possible images with predictable and consistent file sizes. The URSA Cine records to the included Blackmagic Media Module 8TB, allowing you to capture over four hours of Blackmagic RAW in 12K or a massive 20 hours in 4K.
Blackmagic Generation 5 Color Science features a new film curve designed to make full use of the massive amount of color data from the new URSA Cine sensor. This delivers even better color response for more pleasing skin tones, and better rendering of highly saturated colors such as neon signs and car tail lights in high contrast scenes. Generation 5 Color Science informs complex Blackmagic RAW image processing, with color and dynamic range data from the sensor preserved via metadata for use in post-production. Compatible with all previously shot Blackmagic RAW files, Generation 5 Color Science lets you take advantage of the new film curve even with your existing work.
The high frequencies of synthetic materials like fabrics or the LED matrix in video walls can cause problems for ultrasharp modern lenses and high-resolution sensors, creating interference patterns. Using an optical low-pass filter minimizes that interference, which results in a reduction of moire and aliasing. The URSA Cine includes a high-performance, optical low-pass filter that is precisely matched to the sensor. The OLPF also incorporates updated IR filtering that improves far red color response which, when combined with Blackmagic RAW processing for the URSA Cine, preserves color and critical image detail for new levels of image fidelity.
The URSA Cine features high-quality ND filters that let you quickly reduce the amount of light entering the camera. Designed to match the colorimetry and color science of the camera, the 2-, 4- and 6-stop filters provide you with additional latitude even under harsh lighting. The IR filters have been designed to filter both optical wavelengths and IR wavelengths evenly to eliminate IR contamination of the images from which many ND filters can suffer. URSA Cine ND filters are true optical filters with a precision mechanism that quickly moves them into place when the ND filter dial is turned. Filter settings can even be displayed as either an ND number, stop reduction, or fraction on the LCD.
The URSA Cine is multiple cameras in one, shooting standard resolutions and frame rates in 4K, 8K, Super35 9K, and even insanely detailed 12K. You can shoot 100 fps in 12K 12,288 x 6480 17:9 or 120 fps in 12K 2.4:1 widescreen. For higher frame rates, you can shoot 144 fps at 8192 x 5360, 180 fps at 8192 x 3408, and even capture 8K 2.4:1 widescreen at an incredible 224 fps at 8,192 x 3,408. The camera has flexible frame rate and resolution options, and it captures incredible motion rendering with smoother edges in 8K and 4K, even at lower frame rates. Plus, with a massive 100MP per frame at up to 80 fps in Blackmagic RAW, you can capture perfect stills and motion shots at the same time.
URSA Cine is the first digital film camera with ultrafast high capability Cloud Store technology built in. Blackmagic Media Module is fast and rugged and includes a massive 8TB of storage. It’s like a Cloud Store Mini built into your camera. The high-speed storage lets you record at the highest resolutions and frame rates for hours and access your files directly over high-speed 10G Ethernet. Or you can use the media you already own with the optional Blackmagic Media Module CF, which has dual CFexpress slots. The module can be easily removed from the camera and loaded into a Blackmagic Media Dock for transferring media to a network or Blackmagic Cloud for instant global collaboration.

Plus, the USB-C connection supports Ethernet so you can transfer media using a simple USB-C cable connected to your computer. There is also an HDMI output that lets you see the status of your media in real time on a TV or monitor.
URSA Cine supports creating a small H.264 proxy file in addition to the camera’s original media when recording. This means the small proxy file can upload to Blackmagic Cloud in seconds so your media is available back at the studio in real time. The ability to transfer media directly into the DaVinci Resolve media bin as editors are working is revolutionary and has never before been possible. Any editor working anywhere in the world will get the shots. If you have multiple cameras, then the new multisource feature in DaVinci Resolve’s Cut page will show each camera angle in a multiview. Blackmagic Cloud is a revolution in global post-production workflows.

- Timecode is a media synchronization system that is designed to perfectly synchronize all your audio and video recordings. Not only does timecode save you time in the editing process, especially when working on shoots using multiple cameras and audio recorders, but it also becomes a single source of truth for referencing specific scenes, moments, or timestamps within your project.
- Timecode essentially works by labelling every clip with the exact time it starts. These timings are frame-accurate, which means clips can be perfectly aligned down to a fraction of a second, even if your devices started or stopped recording at different times.
- The Wireless PRO receiver acts as the ‘Source’ in a timecode setup, meaning that timecode is generated by the Wireless PRO and is received by other ‘Sync’ devices, such as cameras and audio recorders.
- The Wireless PRO outputs timecode information as an audio signal. If your camera accepts timecode, it will record this data into your video files directly, but if it doesn’t then you can still record this audio timecode signal into your camera’s mic or aux input just like you would a microphone—this audio is then later recognized as timecode in your editing software.
- The Wireless Pro receiver will automatically send timecode to the transmitters, so the recordings on your transmitters will have timecode baked into them and be perfectly synchronized, but you need to record the timecode onto your camera(s), so that your video files also have this sync information.
