The Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 12K OLPF (PL) is a PL-mount compatible, 12K cinema camera capable of RAW capture and adds an OLPF to the URSA Mini Pro 12K. Key features include:
User-changeable PL lens mount
Dual CFast 2.0 or SD card recording
4K Super16 up to 220 fps
Netflix approved camera
What’s Changed? The external body of the Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 12K OLPF (PL) is mostly unchanged in this update, and instead, the sensor is the star of the show. Blackmagic has implemented their own sensor design that can record up to 12K at 60fps. That quite a jump from the previous 4.6K sensor used in the Mini Pro G2. Recording and control options remain largely the same aside from the removal of any codecs other than Blackmagic RAW. You’ll find no ProRes options here.
Professional Features. With the URSA Mini Pro 12K, you get a raft of external controls that eliminate menu diving for focus assist, frame rate, and exposure settings. There’s an exterior LCD that provides at-a-glance shooting data, a four-position ND filtration wheel (0/2/4/6-stops), and dual CFast 2.0 and UHS-II capable SD memory card slots. Carried over from the Mini Pro G2 is recording to USB Type-C SSD drives, and a new Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 12K Recorder allows for full-quality 12K recording to compatible 2.5-inch SSDs.
PL Mount & OLPF. This camera is compatible with cinema lenses that utilize ARRI’s PL (positive lock) mount. There is also an added layer of lens communication with lenses capable of sharing lens data via Cooke i/Technology. The included optical low pass filter (OLPF) is a new addition to this series, and helps minimize unwanted image interface. Please note that this rental does not include a battery plate.
