Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 Features

Crafted for powerful SDI switchers, the Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 introduces advanced 12G-SDI and 10G Ethernet capabilities. This proves invaluable, primarily when the camera is far from its corresponding switcher. It boasts a 12G-SDI output and a 12G-SDI program return input, encompassing features like camera operation, talkback, and tally indicators. Additionally, you benefit from a robust HDMI output replete with control functions. Plus, the 10G Ethernet linkage ensures a consolidated connection via a singular cable, paving the way for an SMPTE-style workflow at a substantially reduced cost.


The Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 is armed with an effective sensor size of 17.78mm x 10mm — the camera promises the best in the Four Thirds category. Its active MFT mount supports dynamic lens control, offering incredible flexibility with iris, focus, and zoom.

Illuminate your scenes with an expansive dynamic range of 13 stops and dual native ISO settings. The device assures impeccable clarity even in challenging light conditions, given its sensitivity metrics like f11 with 2160p59.94. The shooting resolutions can reach 3840 x 2160 (Ultra HD) at a smooth 60 fps.

Beyond the visuals, the touch of innovation graces every inch of this camera. Its 7-inch LCD capacitive touchscreen, boasting a crisp 1920 x 1200 resolution and a radiant brightness of 2000 nits, ensures that monitoring your shots is a breeze. The on-the-fly adjustments are seamless with a user-friendly touchscreen interface, complemented by a trio of assignable function buttons.

The mounting options, SDI video inputs/outputs, and HDMI 2.0 outputs ensure flexibility in setup across various production scenarios. The bonus of integrated stereo microphones and built-in speakers provides high-quality audio capture and monitoring. The camera's unique capability to direct stream over RTMP via ethernet or USB-C makes broadcasting straightforward and efficient. Stream to popular platforms like Facebook, Twitch, YouTube, and more.

Many external controls allow professionals to precisely manipulate lens focus, zoom, and even colour correction. All this prowess is comfortably housed within a framework resilient to various environmental conditions, ensuring durability and longevity.
