The Blackmagic Studio Camera HD 2 is an update to the Studio Camera released by Blackmagic Design in 2014. The battery has been removed making the camera lighter and more affordable. However, AC plug-in power or external plug-in power systems are necessary for operation.
Designed for Live Studio Production. The Studio Camera HD 2 features a micro-four-thirds lens mount and a 10″ LCD viewfinder just like its predecessor – as well as talkback, tally, remote camera control, lens control, and built-in DaVinci Resolve primary color correction. The Blackmagic Studio Camera is built with a strong, lightweight magnesium alloy body and sports a standard 12V DC 4-pin XLR power connection to power this battery-less new version.
Blackmagic Studio Camera HD 2 Features:
High Resolution 1920x1080 Sensor
10″ LCD Viewfinder with Sun Shade
Optical SMPTE Compatible SFP Optical Fiber Socket
3G-SDI
Micro Four Thirds (MFT) Lens Mount
Two-Way Digital Quality Talkback
Front and Rear Tally
Built-In DaVinci Resolve Primary Color Corrector
10″ LCD Viewfinder. The Blackmagic Studio Camera 2 features the largest built-in camera viewfinder at a whopping 10 inches. This high-resolution screen has a wide viewing angle and a removable sun shade. Skip the external monitor and frame, focus, and change iris settings with confidence thanks to the camera’s powerful LCD.
ATEM Compatibility. The Studio Camera supports the tally SDI standard used on the ATEM range of live production switchers; tally lights illuminate automatically with a light on the front for talent, and a light above the viewfinder for the operator, allowing the cast and crew to see which cameras are on air.
