Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Plus G2 Live Production Camera

Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Plus G2 Advanced Live Production Camera

The Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Plus G2 has the same features as large studio cameras, miniaturized into a single compact and portable design. Plus with digital film camera dynamic range and color science, the cameras can handle extremely difficult lighting conditions while producing cinematic-looking images. The sensor features an ISO of up to 25,600 so you can create amazing images even in dimly lit venues. It even works under moonlight. Advanced features include tally, camera control, built-in color corrector, Blackmagic RAW recording to USB disks, and much more. You can even add a focus and zoom demand for lens control.

Designed for Live Production

While Blackmagic Studio Camera is designed for live production, it?s not limited to use with a live switcher. That?s because it records Blackmagic RAW to USB disks, so it can be used in any situation where you use a tripod. The large 7″ viewfinder makes it perfect for work such as chat shows, television production, broadcast news, sports, education, conference presentations, and even weddings. The large bright display with side handles, touch screen, and physical controls makes it easy to track shots while being comfortable to use for long periods of time. Because it?s so lightweight, it?s perfect when you’re constantly changing locations and doing different kinds of work.

Revolutionary Studio Camera Design

Large broadcasters use expensive studio cameras that are extremely large, so they?re not very portable. The distinctive Blackmagic Studio Camera has all the benefits of a large studio camera because it?s a combination of camera and viewfinder all in a single compact design. It features a lightweight carbon fiber reinforced polycarbonate body with innovative technology in a miniaturized design. The camera is designed for live production so it?s easy to track and frame shots with its large 7″ viewfinder. The touchscreen has menus for camera settings, and there are knobs for brightness, contrast, and focus peaking. Plus a tripod mount with a mounting plate is included for fast setup.

Get Cinematic Images in Live Production

Amazing sensors combined with Blackmagic generation 5 color science give you the same imaging technology used in digital film cameras. That means you can now use cinematic images for live production. Plus, when combined with the built-in DaVinci Resolve primary color corrector you get much better images than simple broadcast cameras. The color corrector can even be controlled from the switcher. With 13 stops of dynamic range, the camera has darker blacks and brighter whites, perfect for color correction. Great for both HD and Ultra HD production, the 4K models feature a resolution of 3840 x 2160 and the 6K model has a resolution of 6144 x 3456. Plus, all models support 23.98 to 60 fps.

Affordable Photographic Lenses

With the popular EF or MFT lens mounts, Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Plus G2 is compatible with a wide range of affordable photographic lenses. Photographic lenses are of incredible quality because they’re designed for use in high-resolution photography. Plus, the active lens mount lets you adjust the lens remotely. To eliminate the need to reach around to adjust the lens manually, the optional focus and zoom demands let you adjust the lens from the tripod handles just like a large studio camera. This means you avoid camera shake when adjusting the lens so you can track shots and operate the camera without taking your hands off the tripod. It gives you the same feel as an expensive B4 broadcast lens.

Frame Shots with a Large 7″ Viewfinder

The large 7″ high-resolution screen will totally transform how you work with the camera because it’s big enough to make framing shots much easier.

Physical and Touchscreen Controls

Blackmagic Studio Cameras feature physical buttons and knobs as well as controls on the touchscreen. Knobs on the right side of the camera allow adjusting of the brightness, contrast and focus peaking. The focus peaking knob is incredibly useful as it lets you fine-tune the detail highlight so you can get perfect focus as you zoom. The 3 function buttons on the left can have functions assigned to them, such as zebra, false color, focus peaking, LUTs, and more. Plus you can change the function assigned to each button in the menus. The touchscreen also includes a heads-up display with the most important shooting information, as well as menus for all camera settings, LUTs, and custom presets.

Built-in Tally for On-Air Status

Blackmagic Studio Cameras feature a very large tally light that illuminates red for on-air, green for preview, and orange for ISO recording. The tally light also includes clip-on transparent camera numbers, so it’s easy for talent to see camera numbers from up to 20 feet away. The Blackmagic Studio Cameras support the SDI tally standard used on all ATEM live production switchers and the HDMI tally used on ATEM Mini switchers. This means that a director can cut between cameras and the tally information will be sent back to the cameras via the SDI program return feed, lighting up the tally light on the camera whenever it’s on air. SDI tally eliminates complex wiring so job setup is faster.

Communicate with the Director via Talkback

Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Plus G2 models feature SDI connections with talkback so the switcher operator can interact with the cameras while live events are being broadcast. This means the director can direct shot selection by speaking with the camera operators, solving the issue of multiple cameras potentially capturing the same scene simultaneously.

Standard 5-pin XLR broadcast headsets are supported by the built-in talkback connector on the side of the camera. Talkback uses audio channels 15 and 16 for both the program return from the switcher to the camera and the SDI connection between the camera and the switcher. Talkback can therefore be used with any embedded SDI audio device.

Powerful Broadcast Connections

The Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Plus G2 has a large number of connections for connecting to broadcast and consumer electronics. For ATEM Mini switchers, all models have HDMI with a tally, camera control, and record trigger. Additionally, there are two USB-C expansion ports and two headphone and microphone jacks.

Get Low-Cost Camera Control via SDI

All Blackmagic Design ATEM switchers can control cameras via a protocol embedded into the camera’s SDI video connections. Setup is easy because all ATEM switchers broadcast control commands from the switcher?s SDI program output to the camera via the SDI program input. The switcher can perform color correction, tally, and lens control and these are sent to all cameras. All you need to do is select the correct camera number and it all works. Even ATEM Mini switchers can control Blackmagic Studio Cameras because the HDMI output to the switcher has return data communication that can send control information back to the camera. All this means the camera operator is free to focus on framing shots.

USB Expansion Port for Accessories

The Studio 4K Plus G2 Camera features a high-speed USB-C expansion port that allows you to record to external disks or connect to a wide range of accessories. Plug in an external USB flash disk and the camera can record high-quality 12-bit Blackmagic RAW files for later editing and color correction.

Incredible Blackmagic RAW Quality

Blackmagic RAW is a revolutionary new format designed to capture and preserve the quality of the sensor data from your camera. Some file formats such as H.264 are highly compressed, so add noise and artifacts, causing sensor detail to be lost forever.

Blackmagic RAW eliminates this problem so you get stunning images with incredible detail and rich color throughout the whole post-production pipeline.

Blackmagic RAW also saves camera settings as metadata so you can change ISO, white balance, and exposure later in DaVinci Resolve. Plus the files are small and fast, so editing responsiveness is incredible. Only Blackmagic RAW gives you the highest quality, smallest files, and fastest performance.

Includes Built-in Microphones

Blackmagic Studio Cameras include built-in microphones so you get sound included in the design making setup much faster. Plus the built-in microphones are shock and wind-resistant, so you get great sound even in tough conditions.

With each microphone placed at the edges of the screen, you get the advantage of the studio camera design for better stereo separation than what is possible on a regular video camera. There?s also a 3.5mm audio input for connecting video camera microphones as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Localized in 13 Popular Languages

The Blackmagic Studio Cameras are designed to be used worldwide so they support 13 popular languages. When setting up your camera, you can choose to work in English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Chinese, Japanese, or Korean.

It?s easy to switch to another language simply by going into the menu settings. When switching between languages, all the on-screen overlays, heads-up displays, and setup menus will be displayed in the selected language and you can change languages any time you like.
