New Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro & DaVinci Resolve Tools
Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro
Imagine having the versatility of three different camera types in one compact body… Well, Blackmagic says their new URSA Mini Pro gives shooters just that.
With the URSA Mini Pro, Blackmagic has combined high end digital film quality with the features & controls of a broadcast camera meaning that it’s possible for shooters to use one camera for multiple applications, such as digital film projects, broadcast production and even live studio production.
This could be great news for small to medium broadcasters, independent filmmakers and even online content creators looking to improve their workflow but not break the bank while doing it.
