Blackmagic URSA Cine 12K LF Gets Netflix Approval

Blackmagic Design’s URSA Cine 12K LF digital film camera was recently added to the Netflix Approved Camera List.
Officially titled “Cameras and Image Capture: Requirements and Best Practices”, the list highlights the capture requirements necessary to be qualified as an approved camera by the streamer, including dynamic range, resolution, codec, workflow compatibility and more.
Netflix requires 90% of a program’s final total runtime to be captured on approved cameras. The list already includes the Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 and Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K OLPF amongst its approved systems.
Blackmagic URSA Cine is a revolutionary digital film camera that introduces new advanced digital film technology combined with total integration into the post production workflow. That means it's the first digital film camera with fast high capability storage built in, plus high speed networking for on set media sync. Blackmagic URSA Cine also introduces a new large format RGBW 36 x 24mm image sensor with larger photo-sites for incredible dynamic range. You can also swap between PL, LPL, EF and Hasselblad lens mounts. There's even WiFi with SRT streaming for remote client viewing. Plus the industry standard Lemo and Fischer connections make it perfect for high end cinema production.
