Blackmagic URSA Cine - Camera Video Outputs; 12 G-SDI Outputs; Connecting to Monitors

Camera Video Outputs
URSA Cine has two 12G-SDI outputs, one Ethernet streaming output, and 5 USB outputs
including the EVF output. This section describes each output and how you can use them.
12G-SDI Outputs
The 12G-SDI out connectors on the rear panel support HD and 4K video including high frame
rate progressive formats such as 2160p50, 59.94 and 60 on a single SDI cable. Interlaced HD
formats are also supported including 1080i50, 59.94 and 60. You can use the 12G-SDI outputs
to connect to anySDI monitor, for example a director’s preview monitor or to video village, as
well as to 4K switchers such as ATEM Constellation switchers. This output can be switched
between HD and Ultra HD by selecting 2160p, 1080p or 1080i in the ‘SDI A’ and ‘SDIB’
monitor settings.
Connecting to Monitors
SDI monitoring can be handy when accessing the fold out monitor is impractical, such as
when secured high on a jib arm, on a crane, or mounted on a vehicle. Frame guides and other
monitoring information can be enabled or disabled in via the camera’s ‘monitor’ settings.
The SDI outputs automatically flag HDR video with ancillary metadata when you are working
in ‘Film’ dynamic range and use the ‘Broadcast Film to Rec.2020 Hybrid Log Gamma’ or
‘Broadcast Film to Rec.2020 to PQ Gamma’ LUT on the SDI output. This means you can display
stunning HDR images on HDR enabled screens from either SDI output.
