Digital Film Quality for Every Project
The perfect camera for digital film, broadcast, live production and more!
URSA Mini Pro is “three cameras in one” because it combines high end digital film quality with the ergonomics and features broadcasters need. It’s ideal for any kind of work from high end feature films, television shows and commercials, to independent films, broadcast news, and even studio and live production!
URSA Mini Pro features beyond Ultra HD 4.6K resolution plus 15 stops of dynamic range, all with a super wide color gamut and DaVinci color science so you always capture cinematic quality images. The super compact body features broadcast camera ergonomics and advanced operating software that make it faster to set up and use than any other camera!
Whether you’re on set, on location or shooting run and gun, URSA Mini Pro has the image quality and features you need to work on any type of project!
Revolutionary URSA Design
Big camera features that are fast to use in a lightweight, portable design!
URSA Mini Pro is designed to include everything you need in a handheld camera so you can take it anywhere!
Unlike cheap plastic cameras, the evenly weighted camera body is made out of a super tough magnesium alloy.
It’s a true professional camera with full redundancy on every control, even the power switch!
Plus, the tactile controls allow full setting changes without having to take the camera off your shoulder! There’s an external high visibility LCD status display so you can see critical shooting information, and a 4 inch foldout touchscreen for reviewing shots so you don’t have to carry an extra on set monitor! You get professional connections such as 12G-SDI, XLR audio, a built in high quality microphone and more.
Powerful Tactile Controls
Quickly change settings without taking the camera off your shoulder!
Like the world’s best broadcast cameras, URSA Mini Pro features powerful tactile control buttons, switches, knobs and dials, giving you direct access to the most important camera settings. The controls are laid out in a logical order that makes them easy to remember, so you’ll be able to adjust settings, use ND filters, change frame rate and even snap a still photo without having to look at the buttons or take the camera off of your shoulder. The external controls are so fast to use, you don’t even have to stop shooting! That’s what makes URSA Mini Pro both a powerful broadcast and studio camera, as well as a digital film camera!
Work Flow
Get Three Cameras in One
Digital film quality with broadcast camera features makes URSA Mini Pro perfect for film, broadcast and studio camera work!
Blockbuster feature films from a lightweight handheld camera!
URSA Mini Pro gives you uncompromising digital film quality that rivals cameras costing thousands more. URSA Mini Pro captures high resolution images with 15 stops of latitude and a super wide color gamut that’s vastly larger than both Rec. 2020 and the P3 digital cinema color space.
Documentaries
For cutting edge documentaries, you need to create a level of trust and intimacy between the director and subject that simply isn’t possible with a large crew and intimidating camera rig. The light weight and small size of URSA Mini Pro makes it unobtrusive and perfect for capturing amazing nature shots and emotional interviews.
The ultimate camera for studio production!
Whether you’re a broadcaster working on news or magazine style talk shows, you need a future proof camera that can capture the incredible color and detail of Ultra HD.
URSA Mini Pro is unique because it gives you the best of both worlds!
You can even add the 7 inch URSA Studio Viewfinder to turn URSA Mini Pro into the ultimate studio camera, complete with remote camera and lens control, talkback, tally and more! URSA Mini Pro features a built in CCU as well as an incredible DaVinci primary color corrector that lets you go beyond the basics and gives you full creative control with YRGB lift, gamma and gain adjustments! Now you get the same imaging and processing that feature films get, all in a professional broadcast studio camera!
