新硬件

Their first piece of all-new hardware announced was the 复印机4 k ($1,995, 下面). This device simultaneously records to up to 25 SD cards. The use proposed for this device is being able to provide an immediate deliverable of a live event to a customer as soon as the event ends. 复印机4K可以用H录制2160p60.265压缩. 虽然H.265 isn’t universally available to consumer’s playback devices, some 4K televisions have built-in SD card readers that could display the content. If 4K isn’t desired, the 复印机4 k can be configured for 1080p recording instead.

The MultiView 4 ($495) was also announced with support for four independent 6G SDI connections. This device can display a single 2160p30 image or four separate 1080p images on a 4K display.

Another new product was the URSA Studio Viewfinder ($1,795, 下面)，将于第三季度上市. This 7” monitor has been designed to meet the demands of studio broadcast and sports camera operators. 具有易于调整的安装系统, 大调节按钮, 统计照明, 还有可互换的相机号码, this monitor will surely be a welcome accessory for users of Blackmagic’s lineup of studio cameras.

最后, Blackmagic introduced a few additional hardware utilities such as an SDI-to-HDMI micro converter ($85) and a 3G SDI Arduino Shield card that will allow users to design their own custom CCUs ($95).

硬件更新

The popular line of Video Assist hardware has been updated and renamed the Video Assist 4K ($895, 下面). This 7” monitor now comes with two SD card slots for recording UHD and full-size BNC connectors, 与之前型号的迷你BNC相反. It also includes low-noise XLR connectors for audio input.

Yet another 4K device announced was the UltraStudio 4K Extreme 3 with support for the new Thunderbolt 3. The 40Gbps speed of Thunderbolt will become a must-have as more editors work with the immense file sizes and bit rates of UHD.

软件更新

Blackmagic also added support for the all-important HDR playback over HDMI to their UltraStudio 4K Extreme and DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G hardware.

在相机一侧, a major OS update for the URSA Mini will be available later this year for a free download. The software update brings a number of major functionality updates and is more of a major re-write than an update. 这次更新带来了一个完全重新设计的用户界面, reducing the number of menus and submenus to simplify operations. 基本设置，比如ISO, 白平衡, 快门角, 虹膜, and frame rate are easily accessed and adjusted on screen via touch input or hardware buttons.

All of the hardware and software mentioned in this article are available for demos throughout the NAB Show.
