News from Blackmagic
Blackmagic is blowing the press horn, a melodious triad is ingratiating itself into your workflow. Because today Blackmagic is releasing a trilogy of new hardware: the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro, the Web Presenter HD and the Atem Mini Extreme.
Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro
The features of the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro that are worth putting a spotlight on include 1,500 nit, adjustable HDR touchscreen, a built-in ND filter and support for the electronic viewfinder, which can be activated if required.
We shouldn’t forget to mention this: The EF bayonet of the Cinema Camera 6K Pro and its Super 35 sensor with 13 f-stops of dynamic range – the new Blackmagic part also features Gen 5 Colour Science. If you’re looking for a cinematic look for your film, you could screw one of the large EF lenses in front of the camera to achieve a shallow depth of field or the bokeh effect.
Breath Mini Extreme
Blackmagic is adding two new additions to its Atem Mini series: Atem Mini Extreme and Atem Mini Extreme ISO. Already ATEM-less with excitement? Let’s take a look at the anatomy of the Breathe Minis. This reveals over eight inputs, six DVEs, four chroma keyers, six macro buttons, SuperSource and a 16-fold multi-view. Both devices come with recording engines, with the ISO model recording nine streams if you like.
A treat for handset fans: With the Atem 8.6 software update, Atem Mini Pro and Extreme users can connect their smartphone to the mixer. The ATEM switcher then automatically switches on the internet connection.
Web Presenter HD
The streaming solution from Blackmagic – in broadcast quality. The Web Presenter HD boasts a 12G-SDI input with down converter. This allows you to plug in HD or UltraHD equipment and stream videos in 1080p quality. The front panel provides you with a monitoring output, audio meter, trend diagrams for codec data rates – and summaries of the streaming status and settings.
