Blackmagic Zoom Demand
Evangeline Mellon
Blackmagic Studio Camera works with a wide range of professional broadcast camera accessories so it can be customized to meet the needs of your production. A 12V power supply and tripod mount are included but you can also add a wide range of Blackmagic Design and third party accessories such as teleprompters or external batteries. The active Micro Four Thirds or EF lens mounts support a wide range of high quality photographic lenses. While broadcast standard video and audio connections let you use switchers and professional microphones. Plus you get mounting points for adding accessories like rails, matte boxes and more. All this means you get the most flexible studio camera available!
The MFT and EF lens mounts support an incredibly wide range of high quality photographic lenses, including lenses you may already own! Photographic lenses come in a variety of focal lengths such as extreme zoom lenses for detailed close ups of your talent, wide angle lenses which are perfect for capturing crowds, high speed lenses for low light conditions and even lenses with image stabilization for smooth tracking shots. The Studio Camera 6K Pro model features an active EF lens mount that works with a wide range of lenses from Canon, Sigma, Zeiss and others. The Micro Four Thirds mount on the 4K models supports a variety of high quality compact lenses from Olympus, Panasonic and Sigma.
Blackmagic Focus and Zoom demands allow you to adjust the focus and zoom of compatible photographic lenses without the need to reach around the camera. They attach to the tripod handles via the included mounting hardware so you can focus on framing the right shot without taking your hands off the tripod. The focus demand works with active MFT or EF lenses while the zoom demand is compatible with power zoom MFT or EF lenses. Plus the zoom demand has additional customizable buttons that let you fine tune the zoom speed, engage talkback or even set ND filters on the 6K Pro. Blackmagic Focus and Zoom demands make still photography lenses feel like expensive broadcast lenses without the cost!
Teleprompters help talent to present to camera with greater confidence and can add a lot of professionalism to your production. The tripod mount included with Blackmagic Studio Cameras lets you add rails to your camera, making it easy to attach a teleprompter for when you need the presenter to look at the camera while reading a script. You can use expensive broadcast quality screen and mirror rigs or, for smaller setups, there are affordable, lightweight teleprompters that use tablet computers, iPads and even smartphones! Or you can even use a HyperDeck Shuttle which lets you turn any HDMI monitor into a teleprompter and use its large, built in search dial to easily scroll the script!
