  • Just released by Blackmagic Design, the Studio Camera 4K is here and in this film we’re going to unbox and set it up at the xTribe Studios in LA.
    First to come out of the box is the machined metal tripod mount with quick mounting plate.
    The mounting plate with 15mm rod clamps is a welcome addition. It features forward and rear adjustment so that you can properly balance it on the tripod.
    And here it is. The carbon fiber reinforced shell and absence of battery makes this camera very lightweight.
    The back features a generous 7” touchscreen display, and a foldable sunshade.
    Just like all of Blackmagic’s cameras, it features the popular MFT lens mount.
    The power adapter features a DC locking power connector, international power adapters, and a rather short cable.
    We’ll go ahead and mount the camera on a tripod, the Magnus VT-4000.
    Thanks to the camera’s light weight, it is well within this tripod’s 4 kg load rating.
    Most importantly it is a fluid head tripod system, which is one of the most important factors for smooth filmmaking.
    And here’s the sensor, with an ISO of up to 25,600.
    We’re going to use a Panasonic Lumix G Vario 45-100mm F-4.0-5.6. This is a lightweight and affordable zoom lens. It has optical image stabilization, silent auto-focus.
    Unlike the Blackmagic Pocket cameras, the Studio camera does not have a CF or SD card slot. Instead it features 2 USB-C ports to which you can connect SSD drives, and to which you can record in Blackmagic RAW format.
    The HDMI port on this camera is not just for the video feed but when paired with an ATEM Mini it also controls the tally (which can light up green, amber or red), triggers the autofocus, and toggles the record button.
    Before we fire this baby up, we’re going to put in 2 15mm rods and attach a basic matte box because we have quite a few studio lights here at xTribe that could cause glare.
    Alright, we can now pop open that foldable sunshade, which also doubles as a screen protector when transporting the camera.
    We didn’t yet connect this to an ATEM Mini. The camera can function standalone as well, and record to its local USB-C drive.
    The menu is very similar to the Blackmagic Pocket 4K.
    Here you can choose the format in which you wish to record to the local USB-C drive.
    The camera has built-in wind resistant microphones as well as a 3.5mm audio input and output.
    The function buttons on the left can be customized to control things such as LUTS and autofocus.
    The dials on the right are strictly for controlling the brightness, contrast and focus peaking on the 7” display. They don’t affect the HDMI feed or recording.
    And red goes the tally light, which is triggered either when you press record on the camera or when you cut to the camera through the ATEM Mini.
    In our next video we’re going to connect this to ATEM Mini Pro, at the xTribe podcast studio in LA.

      We're using the Neewer Plastic 15mm Matte Box. It is height adjustable. The rods were not included, we've used two of the SmallRig 12 Inches (30 cm) Aluminum Alloy 15mm rods.

      I know you're not asking me Fareed, my goal is the $1,795 studio 4k with the Vazen 40mm T2 Anamorphic 4/3rd lens for my studio. After that I'll purchase the $5,995.00 12k with the Zeiss Cp.3 85mm T2.1 lens and make my musical podcast show from my recording studio.

    • @xtribe3256
      @xtribe3256  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you can set it to 60 FPS for the entire project, or you can set 60 FPS as "off speed recording" that you can then trigger using one of the custom function keys. You can then slow it down in post.

    How many hour we can record continuously and there is any chance to connect battery??

    • @xtribe3256
      @xtribe3256  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The only limit to recording time would be related to the storage capacity of the USB-C drive you attach. With a 1TB SSD drive in Blackmagic RAW 4K you can record approximately 8 hours.
      To connect a battery it would have to act as an external power supply, providing 12V DC. You could use a V-Mount battery (as people often do with the URSA) and connect it to the camera using a D-Tap 12V DC locking 5.5 mm barrel connector cable. The camera uses 15 to 22W.

    I don't suppose this is good for filming outside right?

    • @xtribe3256
      @xtribe3256  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It will function well in a controlled environment (on a set). The screen is bright enough and has a sun shade. However it's not water resistant, and not a good choice for handheld filming, it doesn't have a battery and it would be awkward to operate. The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 4K / 6K is more versatile for outdoor use.

    Still not impressed. Why didn't blackmagic studio camera 4k plus/pro go all out? High and low angle of view practicality is very bad in practical use if the viewfinder image cannot be viewed. Why doesn't blackmagic design allow the viewfinder to tilt up and down? It's going to have the versatility and beautiful angles that a studio should be. For a little while, you'll be dominating the market in this industry but you don't make it happen. Hopefully this comment the design engineers of blackmagic design will see and make it.

    • @xtribe3256
      @xtribe3256  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for your question! For their 6K family (Pro & G2) Blackmagic does offer an optional viewfinder that can be mounted on top of the camera, with 70 degree range of motion. There is no option to add a viewfinder to a Studio camera family.
