Blackmagic Studio Camera – Right Side
Optical Input/Output
For optical fiber input and output, you will need to install an optional optical fiber SFP module.
This lets you connect industry standard LC connectors, supporting 3G-SDI on Studio Camera
HD, and 6G-SDI on Studio Camera 4K. Optical fiber cable is widely available because it’s the
same cable used in computer networking. Optical fiber allows cable runs of up to 28 miles
which is more than enough for even the most demanding outside broadcast event.
If both optical and SDI inputs are connected, the output from the device which was connected
first will be used. To purchase an optical fiber SFP module for your Blackmagic Studio Camera,
contact your nearest Blackmagic Design reseller. You can find your nearest reseller on our
website at www.blackmagicdesign.com/resellers.
SDI Out
Use the SDI Out connector to output 10-bit 4:2:2 video to professional SDI video equipment
such as routers, monitors, SDI capture devices and broadcast switchers. Blackmagic Studio
Camera HD supports 3G-SDI, and Studio Camera 4K supports 12G-SDI.
SDI In
The SDI input allows the camera operator to view the Program (PGM) output. Simply press the
PGM button to toggle between live camera output and Program output from a switcher
control room.
If both optical and SDI inputs are connected, the output from the device which was connected
first will be used. If you’re using the Studio Camera to record to a device such as the
Blackmagic Hyperdeck Shuttle, the output from the Hyperdeck can be connected to the SDI
input so you can playback what you have just recorded.
Reference Input
This allows multiple cameras to be genlocked to a blackburst or tri-level reference signal.
Genlocking cameras to an external reference signal helps to prevent timing errors which may
result in the picture jumping when switching between different cameras.
