Because of that remote ability, news operations and other live broadcasts will be able to operate their camera without a camera operator on the floor of the show. A control room operator can control both focus and aperture control remotely using the expansion connector or with an ATEM Switcher via SDI when using compatible lenses. The Micro Studio is designed with installation in mind. The expansion port gives many more options like power input, LANC input, 1 x S.Bus channel input, PTZ output, B4 lens control output and Genlock input. An HDMI port, 6G SDI DIM input and output, headphone jack, ¼-inch mic input and lastly an expansion port.
The Micro Studio Camera has 6 inputs/outputs on it.
The biggest and most notable option contrasting it from its brother camera is that it shoots in UHD 4K and not just 1080 HD. But because it lacks the ability to record, there are a few more options with the Micro Studio Camera. The Micro Studio camera has the same form-factor as the Micro Cinema Camera, with one large differentiating feature: the inability to record video. Broadcasters will rejoice with this camera, as it offers a specific feature set that puts it in contention with many other cameras that are far more costly. But that makes it uniquely qualified to do what the it’s named to do: shoot in the studio.Īlthough the Micro Studio Camera is little more than a sensor, it packs quite a punch, and for some, it suites a very specific need. In essence, it’s a sensor with a lens mount and some outputs. The Micro Studio Camera is unique because it doesn’t record internally and has no built-in way of previewing what’s being shot. NAB 2015 was no different, announcing the URSA Mini, the Micro Cinema Camera and the Micro Studio Camera 4K along with many other non-camera announcements. Blackmagic Design is known for their disruptive releases every year.
