SD Cards

In addition to CFast 2.0 cards, Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 4.6K can record on high speed UHS-I

and UHS-II type SD cards. Using high end SDXC UHS-II cards, you can even record ProRes HQ

footage in 2160p for Ultra HD content!

With SD cards, you can use more affordable storage media when shooting compressed video

formats in HD. SDXC and SDHC are a very common media storage format for consumer still and

video cameras.

If you've ever shot video using a DSLR, or use a Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera, Pocket Cinema

Camera or Blackmagic Video Assist, you probably already have compatible SD cards to use.

For projects that don't require the highest resolution RAW files, or for when long recording

durations are needed, using SD cards can be very economical. Lower capacity and lower

speed SD cards can also be used for storing and loading LUTs and Presets.

Inserting an SD Card

To insert an SD Card.

1 Open the fold out monitor to access the SD card slots. These are the smaller slots

located between the CFast slots.

2 Set the storage media toggle switch above the slots to 'SD'.

3 With the label on the SD card facing away from the touchscreen, insert the card until

you feel it lock into place. To remove an SD card, push the SD card in to eject it.

4 The storage indicator at the bottom of the LCD touchscreen will show the name and

record time remaining of detected cards.

When recording to SD cards on URSA Mini Pro 4.6K make

sure the storage media selection switch is set to 'SD'

Choosing a fast SD Card

If you are recording Ultra HD on Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 4.6K, then we recommend using the

fastest high speed UHS-II type SD cards available. It’s important to use high speed UHS-II

SDcards for Ultra HD and HD recording, or UHS-1 cards for HD recording. These cards are

rated for fast data speeds and support larger storage sizes. Generally the faster the cards,

thebetter. Refer to the recommended SD cards table earlier in this section for more information.
