URSA Mini Pro 4.6K Digital Film Camera Joins the Family.

Updated: Mar 24, 2020


I have added the URSA Mini Pro 4.6k to my camera list. I am currently shooting on it up to 2K using the same B4 broadcast lenses but the camera will shoot up to 4.6K with EF DSLR lenses.


Whilst my standard PMW-500 camera gives a lovely image the sensor is only 2/3" but the URSA boasts a super 35mm sensor. It's ideal for glossy or filmic #corporate work.


The #URSA also offers lovely slow motion up to 120fps.


This video was shot using the URSA and contains lots of slowmo.

The spec of the camera can be seen below.

  • 4.6K Super-35mm CMOS Sensor

  • 4608 x 2592 Video up to 60p

  • CinemaDNG and ProRes 444 & 422 Recording

  • 2/4/6-Stop ND Filter Wheel

  • Dual CFast 2.0 and SD Memory Card Slots

  • 12G-SDI Output, Timecode and REF Input

  • 2 XLR Audio Inputs with Phantom Power
