Description

Blackmagic Design has announced the price of its upcoming URSA Cine 17K. The new large format 65mm digital film camera with RGBW sensor, 16 stops of dynamic range, and Blackmagic RAW syncing to DaVinci Resolve will be priced from $29,995 USD and is it now available to order, with shipments starting later this year.

The URSA Cine 17K features a whopping 65mm sensor. With a horizontal size of 55.9mm and a vertical size of 23.32mm. It is smaller than the IMAX 70mm 15-perf size. The diameter of the URSA Cine 17K sensor is 55.9mm with a resolution of 17,520 x 8,040 pixels.

URSA Cine features a revolutionary new sensor designed for incredible quality images at all resolutions from 4K to a massive 17K. The larger sensor builds on the technology of URSA Mini Pro 12K with larger photo-sites leading to an astounding 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.

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 customers move quickly on set. Standard Lemo and Fischer connectors let customers control the camera remotely while providing power for lens motors and other accessories. Customers also get 12G‑SDI out, 10G Ethernet, USB-C, XLR audio and more.

Different projects require different lenses which is why URSA Cine features an interchangeable lens mount. Customers can quickly switch between PL, LPL, EF and Hasselblad mounts. Plus, each mount has contact pins to read lens metadata for monitoring and for use in post production.

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. 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. There’s even a dedicated focus puller’s mode to help customers get perfect focus
