Blackmagicdesign URSA Cine Studio Viewfinder
17.8 cm studio viewfinder with 2000-nit touchscreen and articulated yoke positioning
The 17.8 cm Blackmagic URSA Cine Studio Viewfinder provides a high-brightness 2000-nit LCD capacitive touchscreen interface for Blackmagic URSA Cine cameras. Camera operators and production crews in studio, broadcast, or field environments use this monitor to handle framing and menu adjustments independently of the camera body. Separating monitoring and control from the chassis delivers clear visibility and direct operational access during production.
In fast-paced studio and EFP video setups, you need direct access to framing and settings without adjusting the camera body chassis. This 17.8 cm studio viewfinder mounts onto the camera via a quick-release V-lock bracket and features independent positioning via an articulated yoke. Grab the built-in handles to tilt or pan the 2000-nit screen into your line of sight. Connecting directly to the URSA Cine camera body allows you to adjust the iris, shutter, or check false color on the touchscreen during live broadcast or film production.
Workflow integration for Blackmagic URSA Cine setups
Select this product if you operate Blackmagic URSA Cine camera systems and require a 17.8 cm high-brightness studio touchscreen display with full camera control capabilities. You gain direct touchscreen controls, custom function keys, and flexible positioning via grab handles and an articulated yoke.
Consider alternative monitoring solutions if you use non-compatible camera bodies or do not require studio-style articulated yoke positioning. Select another monitor or viewfinder when operating non-supported camera models or when your setup calls for a smaller electronic viewfinder EVF.
This product is strictly suited for studio and EFP video production using compatible Blackmagic URSA Cine series cameras. It is unsuitable for use with non-compatible camera bodies or cinema setups that do not support Blackmagic URSA Cine viewfinder connections.
