Introducing Blackmagic URSA, the world’s first high end digital film camera designed to revolutionize workflow on set. Built to handle the ergonomics of large film crews as well as single person use, URSA has everything built in, including a massive 10 inch fold out on set monitor, large user upgradeable Super 35 global shutter 4K image sensor, 12G-SDI and internal dual RAW and ProRes recorders. Because the sensor and lens mount assembly can be changed, you can choose EF or PL lens mounts, or even a broadcast video sensor with B4 mount.

First Class Reels Blackmagic Ursa Camera Test
Shooting with Blackmagic URSA from Rick Young
Review
Definitely a tripod camera. Lug it out of your bag, put it on sticks and start shooting. No rigging, no cables, nothing.
Shoulder? Never! Who wants a ten inch monitor right up to his/her nose?
I had it through my hands a couple of weeks ago. The monitor is fantastic, but it really weights A LOT! I didn't expect it do be SO heavy. It's like having a suitcase full of rocks. Using it on the shoulder will break lots of backs!
Wow, the off-speed framerates really aren't kind to LEDs. But it looks good otherwise.
The frame rate settings in URSA have been changed and now the record frame rate is not limited by the video frame rate. This means customers can select the frame rate they want their work to be done, such as 24 frames per second for a feature film shoot, and then independently select the recording rate from 5 all the way up to 80 frames per second. The advantage of this is the URSA camera can shoot slow motion or fast motion shots but all the recorded video files are always set to the video rate, and you can see the effect of the higher or slower frame rate when playing. This means you can playback the exact same look on the cameras as the clips will play in a time line of editing software.
Interview about the camera at the Photokina 2014
AH!! - sorry. Completely mis-read the video title and saw it backwards. Makes more sense now.
or is most of that graded footage quite dark?
it is "pre grade footage" :-)
Is my monitor dying, or is most of that graded footage quite dark?
