Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 12K
The Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K redefines digital cinema with groundbreaking 12K resolution, giving filmmakers the ability to capture extraordinary detail, exceptional colour, and unmatched creative flexibility. Featuring a 12,288 x 6,480 Super 35 sensor with 14 stops of dynamic range, this third-generation cinema camera delivers stunning image quality for feature films, commercials, documentaries, television, and premium digital productions.
Its advanced 12K sensor captures an incredible 80 megapixels per frame when recording in Blackmagic RAW, preserving maximum image detail while providing greater freedom for reframing, stabilization, visual effects, and high-quality downsampling to 8K, 6K, or 4K. Whether you're delivering in UHD or producing large-format cinema content, the additional resolution ensures sharper, cleaner images with outstanding colour fidelity.
Powered by Blackmagic's latest Generation 5 Colour Science, the URSA Mini Pro 12K produces natural skin tones, richer colours, and improved highlight roll-off, giving filmmakers greater flexibility during colour grading while maintaining a cinematic look straight out of the camera.
Built for professional production environments, the camera features integrated ND filters for fast exposure adjustments, allowing smooth transitions between lighting conditions without changing lens settings. The interchangeable lens mount offers the flexibility to work with a wide range of professional cinema lenses, adapting easily to different production requirements.
Flexible recording options include dual CFast 2.0 and dual SD UHS-II card slots, allowing users to choose the media best suited to their workflow. For longer recording sessions and high-capacity storage, the camera also supports direct recording to external USB-C flash drives and SSDs, providing a fast, cost-effective solution for capturing high-resolution Blackmagic RAW footage.
Whether you're producing feature films, high-end commercials, documentaries, music videos, or broadcast content, the Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K combines revolutionary resolution, advanced colour science, and professional recording flexibility to deliver uncompromising cinematic performance.
