Blackmagic URSA Viewfinder

The URSA Viewfinder is an ENG-style electronic viewfinder built for URSA and URSA Mini digital film cameras, turning a shoulder or handheld rig into a stable, eye-level shooting platform. Inside is a 1920 x 1080 OLED display driven by true glass optics, so critical focus, exposure, and framing hold up in bright sun where an open LCD washes out. The four-element diopter adjusts from -4 to +3 for either eye, and a built-in overlay processor puts status, framing guides, and a digital focus chart in front of the operator.

The viewfinder takes a 3G-SDI feed over BNC and runs on 12V through a 4-pin XLR from the camera's power output, with a USB 2.0 Mini-B port for software updates. It reads camera metadata embedded in the SDI signal from URSA, URSA Mini, and the Blackmagic 3G-SDI Shield for Arduino, and an LED tally light signals record state. The eyepiece tilts and extends, and it ships with a 3/8 inch mounting thumb screw for URSA. Mounting on URSA Mini or URSA Mini Pro requires the URSA Mini Shoulder Kit.
