Blackmagic introduced a brand new digicam yesterday that it says is a part of a brand new Imaginative and prescient Professional-specific workflow that includes its DaVinci Resolve software program. Known as the URSA Cine Immersive, Blackmagic says this digicam, that’s constructed on its URSA Cine platform, will let cinematographers shoot 90fps video in stereoscopic 3D video for the Imaginative and prescient Professional.
That and updates within the DaVinci Resolve video modifying software program will let filmmakers monitor footage proper in Apple’s headset, export native Imaginative and prescient Professional video information, and extra.
Blackmagic doesn’t say how a lot the digicam will price, however you and I gained’t be capable of simply go purchase one. (What we may probably purchase is Canon’s upcoming stereoscopic digicam lens.) Nonetheless, this factor’s existence in tandem with Blackmagic’s modifying software program updates may imply extra filmmakers making content material for the headset, which, to this point, has had little or no to tout.
That’s all nicely and good, however what I actually need is so that you can take a look at this factor. I imply, take a look at that image up on the high — that’s the digicam in all its assembled glory, with its matte black housing and early ’90s camcorder aesthetic. Then, come again down right here and soak this digicam up.
Right here’s a model of the digicam with all the outside stuff taken off.
Now it simply appears like a part of a weird alien bug.
A detailed-up on these lenses — I swear, this factor may double as a miniature for a sci-fi film. It’s not clear if it is a render, however take a look at this factor!
One other take a look at the digicam from above.
And it’s drone-ready! You’d want one thing notably beastly to get it airborne (which may be very a lot what Blackmagic is doing right here), however then once more, should you can afford this digicam, you may in all probability afford the economic, possibly even custom-built drone it might take to let it fly.
