In the second half of March 2025, Blackmagic Design came out with updates to several of its products.
This update adds support for the new Blackmagic URSA Cine 17K 65 camera. This update also adds support for remote control of Blackmagic URSA Cine cameras using the Blackmagic Camera app for iOS. This means you will be able to place the Blackmagic URSA Cine 12K camera in an easily accessible location and monitor and control settings such as focus, white balance, frame rate or shutter angle remotely using your phone or iPad. It also allows you to start and stop recording on a connected URSA Cine camera and use it when shooting with multiple cameras. This update also adds user pixel recalibration for Blackmagic URSA Cine models to ensure accurate pixel tuning when the camera has been exposed to extreme temperature changes.
The Blackmagic Camera 9.3 update is now available for download here.
The next update related to the new URSA Cine camera is DaVinci Resolve 19.1.4. This update adds support for Blackmagic RAW files captured with the Blackmagic URSA Cine 17K 65 camera. This update also adds support for Apple ProRes encoding on Windows and Linux and support for Samsung Log LUTs. In addition, this update improves the performance of network decoding and exporting embedded AAF files, allowing you to share projects between DaVinci Resolve and audio stations while preserving the timeline structure, embedded media, and metadata.
The DaVinci Resolve 19.1.4 update is now available for download here.
This update adds support for Blackmagic RAW recording from Panasonic UB50 cameras to Video Assist 5" 12G HDR and Video Assist 7" 12G HDR models. When recording Blackmagic RAW using Video Assist 12G HDR, you can also save camera settings to metadata. This means that white balance and exposure are encoded into a file that can be read by DaVinci Resolve. However, you can still overwrite these settings later when color correcting the RAW palette.
The Blackmagic Video Assist 3.19 update is now available for download here.
The Blackmagic Videohub 10.1 update adds support for NMOS to Videohub Smart Control Pro and Videohub Master Control Pro. This additional support means you can use any control panel to create connections between sources and destinations on any 2110 IP network, just like a traditional SDI router.
