Blackmagic Design DeckLink SDI 4K

New DeckLink SDI 4K and the DeckLink Studio 4K models now include all the features of the previous models, but with faster 4 lane PCIe connections and 6G-SDI and HDMI 4K connections to allow SD, HD and Ultra HD capture and playback. These new cards also support capture and playback at the same time when used with software that supports this feature such as DaVinci Resolve. The new models replace the older DeckLink SDI and DeckLink Studio models, however are lower cost.

The new DeckLink 4K cards break new ground in offering Ultra HD, 6G-SDI and HDMI 4K connections at very affordable price points. DaVinci Resolve 11 customers will benefit from the capture and playback support as this lets them capture direct from cameras on set, grade the live video with multiple nodes of correction and then to output to an on set monitor all live. This makes lighting a film set easy and allows DOP’s, directors and colorists to work together to optimize the film’s look on set. Other features included in these new models that benefit DaVinci Resolve customers include new frame buffer formats supporting R10K RGB, higher frame rates and much more.
