Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K: The Most Advanced Film Camera In The World

The Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K is currently the most highly advanced digital film camera in the world. Here are some important details about this unique video tool.

 

Blackmagic is a company that focuses on making industry-leading video equipment. In line with its goal of making the best products in the film industry, it launched the Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K.

 

This film camera has a 12,288 x 6480 12K Super 35 sensor and 14 stops of dynamic range. It operates 80 megapixels per frame to produce 12K images. To understand how impressive 12K resolution is, consider these examples:

 

Smartphones like Samsung A31, Redmi 9 and other common ones offer 1080 x 2340 megapixels, which is regarded as having 2K screen resolution. High-end devices like Samsung Galaxy S20 need a special setting to display in 4K.

4K display is also what most advanced cinemas use for film projection. Still, 12K is farther away from these resolutions. In fact, researchers have argued that the best that the human eyes can see is 8K. “Anything above 8K is effectively better than our eyes can see,” an article says.

 

The Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K offers a viewing pleasure of 80 megapixels. This is twice higher than the 40 megapixels that the human eye can enjoy. The camera also has a wide range that can capture object details clearly.

While it shoots 60fps in 12K, this increases to 110fps in 8K and 220fps in 4K. It captures every detail of a shoot in this setting. Despite its advanced functionalities, the camera is actually lightweight.

 

This is important for cinematographers who will likely be on the move constantly. Also, to review shots and use settings, the camera has a 4inch fold out touchscreen. Another unique feature is its wireless Bluetooth camera control.

 

You can stand 30 feet away and control the camera via an app that works on iPad, iOS and Android devices. For additional information, you can check out the device page here.
