Welcome
Thank you for purchasing a Blackmagic Studio Camera!
We are extremely excited to have designed the Blackmagic Studio Camera
and Micro Studio Camera 4K. Ever since I was a teenager I have loved live
production, it’s so exciting!
Traditionally cameras with talkback and tally were very expensive and physically
large, so hard to manage. We really wanted to solve this problem by designing
a more compact camera that included all the talkback, tally and camera control
features of physically much larger cameras.
That’s why the Blackmagic Studio Camera was developed. We wanted to build
a much smaller camera for portability, however normally small cameras have
small tiny screens. We did not want that. What we really wanted was a much
larger viewfinder! The result is Blackmagic Studio Camera, a small broadcast
camera with a very large viewfinder that’s wonderful to use! Precise focus and
framing are so easy with a viewfinder this large!
Of course you get tally indicators, talkback, massive built in battery and of
course a fantastic quality camera with flexible MFT lens mount. It’s everything
you need in a complete package! You can plug in larger wind protected
microphones even with phantom power and with user installable optical fiber,
you can add an SFP module when you need to run your camera miles away
from your switcher! If you need, you can even add a HyperDeck Shuttle and
use the camera for general production use!
Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K takes the small size and capability of
Blackmagic Studio Camera even further! This tiny camera pairs an amazing
Ultra HD sensor with an incredibly tiny chassis and a host of remote control
options. Now you can capture broadcast production footage from previously
impossible locations, all with complete control from an ATEM switcher or via
custom remote.
We hope you use your new camera for some amazing live productions and
produce some fantastic looking work! We are extremely excited to see what
creative work you produce!

simple as attaching a lens and turning the camera on. To remove the protective dust cap from the
lens mount, hold down the locking button and rotate the cap counterclockwise until it is released.
We recommend you always turning off your Blackmagic camera prior to attaching or removing a lens.
To attach a lens:
Step 1. Align the dot on your lens with the dot on the camera mount. Many lenses have either a blue,
red or white dot or some other indicator.
Step 2. Twist the lens clockwise until it locks into place.
Step 3. To remove the lens, hold down the locking button, rotate the lens counterclockwise until
its dot or indicator reaches the 12 o’clock position and gently remove.
When no lens is attached to the camera, the lens mount is exposed to dust and other debris so you'll
want to keep the dust cap on whenever possible.

Optical Input/Output
For optical fiber input and output, you will need to install an optional optical fiber SFP module. This
lets you connect industry standard LC connectors, supporting 3G-SDI on Studio Camera HD, and
6G-SDI on Studio Camera 4K. Optical fiber cable is widely available because it's the same cable used
in computer networking. Optical fiber allows cable runs of up to 28 miles which is more than enough
for even the most demanding outside broadcast event. If both optical and SDI inputs are connected,
the output from the device which was connected first will be used. To purchase an optical fiber SFP
module for your Blackmagic Studio Camera, contact your nearest Blackmagic Design reseller. You
can find your nearest reseller on our website at www.blackmagicdesign.com/resellers.
SDI Out
Use the SDI Out connector to output 10-bit 4:2:2 video to professional SDI video equipment such
as routers, monitors, SDI capture devices and broadcast switchers. Blackmagic Studio Camera HD
supports 3G-SDI, and Studio Camera 4K supports 12G-SDI.

REF
The SDI input allows the camera operator to view the Program (PGM) output. Simply press the PGM
button to toggle between live camera output and Program output from a switcher control room.
If both optical and SDI inputs are connected, the output from the device which was connected first will
be used. If you're using the Studio Camera to record to a device such as the Blackmagic Hyperdeck
Shuttle, the output from the Hyperdeck can be connected to the SDI input so you can playback what
you have just recorded.
Reference Input
SDI In
12V
This allows multiple cameras to be genlocked to a blackburst or tri-level reference signal. Genlocking
cameras to an external reference signal helps to prevent timing errors which may result in the picture
jumping when switching between different cameras.
Power
Use the 12 – 24V power input for connecting your power supply and to charge the internal battery.
When the battery is fully charged it will power the camera for up to 4 hours on Studio Camera HD,
and up to 3 hours on Studio Camera 4K .

Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K expansion cable.
5. B4 Communication
The DB-9 connector allows you to power and control B4 broadcast lenses attached to the Micro
Studio Camera 4K via an MFT to B4 adapter. A B4 lens with digital serial communication can be
controlled, and power is supplied when the Micro Studio Camera 4K is connected to external power.
You can adjust settings such as iris, focus and zoom in the same way you would an active MFT lens either via an ATEM switcher using the ‘camera control’ menu, or via the other remote control
interfaces offered by the Micro Studio Camera 4K Expansion Cable.”
6. S.Bus Digital Servo
By connecting to a compatible S.Bus receiver using the Futaba J cable, you have 18 S.Bus remote
channels where features of the camera can be assigned to and remotely controlled. These features can
include focus, servo zoom, iris control and other such features. For more information about mapping
functions to S.Bus remote channels, see the ‘Remote Settings’ section of this manual.

Wiring diagram for the Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera Expansion Cable
When using Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K’s expansion port you may
only want to access one or two functions. For example, you may want to control
an attached B4 Broadcast Lens while simultaneously receiving 12V power and
a reference signal. It’s easy to make a connector that will give you just these
functions without the clutter of additional, unused connectors.
Use the following diagram when wiring the expansion cable included or use it
as an example for how you can wire up the connections on your own custom
cable correctly. The full range of available pins are listed under group P1,
while the subsets used for particular functions, as well as their layout within
the appropriate connectors, are shown in groups P2 through P7.

Camera Settings
Microphone Level
Microphone input adjusts the recording levels of the built in microphone. Move the audio slider left
or right to increase or decrease levels. Studio Camera has a built in stereo microphone. The built in
microphone records to audio channels 1 and 2 when no external audio source is connected.
Input Level
External audio connectors support audio at microphone level or line level. Select Line when connecting
external audio equipment such as an audio mixer or amplifier. Select the mic low or mic high setting
depending on the signal strength of your microphone. It's important to select the appropriate level
to avoid your external audio sounding almost inaudible or too hot and distorted. Set the external
audio input levels by using the left and right arrows.
Ch 1 Input
Move the audio slider icon left or right to increase or decrease levels for channel 1. The external audio
input overrides the built in microphone and is output to audio channel 1.
Ch 2 Uses Ch 1 Input
Select 'on' if you want to embed channel 1 external audio into channels 1 and 2 of the SDI or the
optional optical fiber output. This is the same as connecting input 1 to both audio channels in the
camera and is useful when using microphones with a single mini audio output and you need to connect
both stereo audio channels to it. Select this setting to off if you want channel 1 audio to remain on
one channel only and channel 2 will take audio from the channel 2 audio input, which is preferred
when using stereo audio sources.
Ch 2 Input
Move the audio slider icon left or right to increase or decrease levels for channel 2. The external
audio input overrides the built in microphone and is output to audio channel 2.
Phantom Power
Phantom power supplies power through microphone cables and is a convenient power source for
condenser microphones. Enable or disable phantom power for studio cameras with XLR inputs by
navigating to the 'audio' menu and selecting on or off using the arrow buttons. Phantom power is
automatically disabled when the 'line input level' setting is selected. Be sure to wait at least 10 seconds
for phantom power to discharge after disconnecting before plugging in a self powered microphone.
Older ribbon type microphones are not suitable for phantom power usage.

of an attached monitor when 'HDMI overlays' are set to on.
Monitoring settings - Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K.
Audio
The audio meter represents the current volume of left and right audio channels in two horizontal
bars. Left is on top, right is on the bottom. If your audio levels rise too high, your audio peaks can be
clipped and you will hear distortion in your audio. To avoid this, adjust the audio gain on your camera
until your audio levels stay within safe levels.
This setting toggles the audio meter on and off. When on, this will appear in the bottom left corner
of an attached monitor when 'HDMI overlay' are set to on.
HDMI Overlays
This setting is only available on Micro Studio Camera 4K. When set to 'on,' HDMI video output
will include frame guides and information about the camera settings and identity, as well
as any meters enabled via the 'HDMI meters' setting.
Brightness
Move the slider icon left or right to adjust brightness settings for the LCD. The default setting is 60%.
Zebra
Blackmagic Cameras have a zebra feature which gives an indication of exposure levels. Diagonal lines
will appear across any part of the video that exceeds the zebra exposure level.

Your Blackmagic Studio Camera can be controlled from an ATEM switcher using the Camera Control feature
in ATEM Software Control. Clicking on the Camera button opens the camera control feature. Settings such
as iris, gain, focus and zoom control are easily adjusted using compatible lenses, plus you can color balance
cameras and create unique looks using the DaVinci Resolve primary color corrector.
The ATEM switcher control works by broadcasting camera control packets via all the non down conver ted SDI outputs
of an ATEM switcher. So this means you can connect an SDI output of an ATEM switcher to your camera's video input,
your camera will detect the control packets in the SDI link and allow you to control features in the camera itself. You
can control your camera via both regular SDI, or via user upgradable

Using ATEM Software Control
Using Camera Control
Launch ATEM Software Control and click on the Camera button located at the bottom of the software
window. You’ll see a row of labeled camera controllers containing tools to adjust and refine each camera’s
image. The controllers are easy to use. Simply click the buttons using your mouse, or click and drag to adjust.
Click on the settings icon to select the Aux output for
camera control.
Each camera controller displays the channel status so you
know which camera is on air. Use the color wheels to adjust
each YRGB channel's lift, gamma and gain settings.
Camera Control Selection
The button row at the top of the camera control page lets you select the camera number you would
like to control. If you have more cameras that fit onto the window size, or you are running the color
corrector window, then you can use these buttons to select between which camera you would like
to control. If you are using an Aux output for monitoring your camera control, pushing these buttons
to change the camera to control will also send that camera's video output to the Aux output setup
in the switcher preferences.
Channel Status
The channel status at the top of each camera controller displays the camera label, On Air indicator
and lock button. Press the lock button to lock all the controls for a specific camera. When on air, the
channel status illuminates red and displays the On Air alert.
Color Wheel
The color wheel is a powerful feature of the DaVinci Resolve color corrector and used to make color
adjustments to each YRGB channel’s lift, gamma and gain settings. You can select which setting to
adjust by clicking on the three selection buttons above the color wheel.
When applying Paste to all, a warning message will appear
asking you to confirm your action. This is so you don’t
accidentally paste new settings to any unlocked cameras
that are currently on air.
Master Wheel
Use the master wheel below the color wheel to make contrast adjustments to all YRGB channels at
once, or luminance only for each lift, gamma or gain setting.
Reset Buttons
The reset button near the top right of each camera controller lets you easily choose color correction
settings to reset, copy or paste. Each color wheel also has its own reset button. Press to restore a setting
to its default state, or copy/paste a setting. Locked controllers are not affected by the Paste feature.
The master reset button on the top right corner of the color corrector panel lets you reset lift, gamma
and gain color wheels plus Contrast, Hue, Saturation and Lum Mix settings. You can paste color
correction settings to camera controllers individually, or all cameras at once for a unified look. Iris,
focus, coarse and pedestal settings are not affected by the Paste feature. When applying Paste to
all, a warning message will appear asking you to confirm your action. This is so you don’t accidentally
paste new settings to any unlocked cameras that are currently on air.
29
Using ATEM Software Control
Iris/Pedestal Control
The iris/pedestal control is located within the cross hairs of each camera controller. The control
illuminates red when its camera is on air.
To open or close the iris, drag the control up or down. Holding the shift key allows only iris adjustments.
To darken or lift the pedestal, drag the control left or right. Holding the command key on a Mac, or
the Control key on Windows, allows only pedestal adjustments.
Zoom Control
When using compatible lenses with an electronic zoom feature, you can zoom your lens in and out
using the zoom control. The controller works just like the zoom rocker on a lens, with telephoto on
one end, and wide angle on the other. Click on the zoom control, located above the coarse slider,
and drag up to zoom in, or drag down to zoom out.
If your lens does not have active lens control or your camera does not support zoom control via the
SDI camera control protocol then these settings will have no affect. If you are using Blackmagic Studio
Camera or Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K, please make sure you have updated your camera software
to v1.9.11 or later to ensure your camera has support for controlling MFT lenses with active zoom.
Coarse Setting
The coarse setting is located to the left of the iris/pedestal control and is used to limit the iris range.
The iris/pedestal control illuminates red when its
respective camera is on air.
This feature helps you prevent over exposed images from going to air.
To set your coarse threshold, completely open the iris using the iris control, then drag the coarse
setting up or down to set optimum exposure. Now when you adjust the iris, the coarse threshold will
prevent it from going above optimum exposure.
Click on the auto focus button or drag the manual focus
adjustment left or right to focus a compatible lens.
Iris Indicator
The iris indicator is located to the right of the iris/pedestal control and displays a visual reference
so you can easily see how open or closed the lens aperture is. The iris indicator is affected by the
coarse setting.
Auto Focus Button
The auto focus button is located at the bottom left corner of each camera controller. Press to
automatically set the focus when you have an active lens that supports electronic focus adjustments. It's
important to know that while most lenses support electronic focus, some lenses can be set to manual
or auto focus modes, and so you need to ensure your lens is set to auto focus mode. Sometimes this
is set by sliding the focus ring on the lens forward or backward.
30
Using ATEM Software Control
Manual Focus Adjustment
When you want to adjust the focus on your camera manually, you can use the focus adjustment
located at the bottom of each camera controller. Drag the wheel control left or right to manually
adjust focus while viewing the video feed from the camera to ensure your image is nice and sharp.
Camera Gain
The camera gain setting allows you to turn on additional gain in your camera. This is important when
you are operating in low light conditions and need extra gain in the front end of your camera to avoid
Hovering your mouse pointer over the gain, shutter speed
and white balance indicators reveal arrows you can click on

your images being under exposed. You can decrease or increase gain by clicking on the left or right
arrows on the dB gain setting.
You can turn on some gain when you need it, such as outdoor shoots when the light fades at sunset and you
need to increase your image brightness. It's worth noting that adding gain will increase noise in your images.
Shutter Speed Control
The shutter speed control is located in the section between the color wheel and the iris/pedestal
control. Decrease or increase the shutter speed by hovering your mouse pointer over the shutter
speed indicator and then clicking on the left or right arrows.
If you see flicker in lights you can decrease your shutter speed to eliminate it. Decreasing shutter
speed is a good way to brighten your images without using camera gain because you are increasing
the exposure time of the image sensor. Increasing shutter speed will reduce motion blur so can be
used when you want action shots to be sharp and clean with minimal motion blur.
Click on the DaVinci Resolve primary color corrector button
to expand the color correction window and adjust settings.
White Balance
The white balance setting next to the shutter speed control can be adjusted by clicking on the left
or right arrows on each side of the color temperature indicator. Different light sources emit warm or
cool colors, so you can compensate by adjusting the white balance. This ensures the whites in your
image stay white.
DaVinci Resolve Primary Color Corrector
If you have a color correction background, then you can change the camera control from a switcher
style CCU interface to a user interface that's more like a primary color corrector on a post production
color grading system.
Your Blackmagic Studio Camera features a DaVinci Resolve primary color corrector built in. If you have
used DaVinci Resolve, then creatively, grading in your Blackmagic Studio Camera will be identical so
you can use your color grading experience for live production.
31
Using ATEM Software Control
The color corrector panel can be expanded out of any camera controller and provides expanded
color correction control with extra settings and a full primary color corrector interface.
You have color wheels and settings such as saturation available and you can see shadows, mid tones
and highlight settings all at the same time. Simply switch between cameras using the camera selection
controls at the top of the window as you need.
Color Wheels
The Lift/Gamma/Gain controls allow tonally specific yet overlapping regions of adjustment.
In photographic terms lift, gamma and gain corresponds to shadows, mid tones and highlights.
Lift, gamma and gain color wheels in the color
corrector panel.
Use the color wheels in the following ways to make fine or aggressive adjustments:
Click and drag anywhere within the color ring: Note that you don’t need to drag the
color balance indicator itself. As the color balance indicator moves, the RGB parameters
underneath change to reflect the adjustments being made to each channel.
Shift-Click and drag within the color ring: Jumps the color balance indicator to the
absolute position of the pointer, letting you make faster and more extreme adjustments.
Double-click within the color ring: Resets the color adjustment without resetting the master
wheel adjustment for that control.
Click the reset control at the upper-right of a color ring: Resets both the color balance
control and its corresponding master wheel.
Adjust the master wheels by dragging the wheel control left
or right.
Drag the sliders left or right to adjust Contrast, Saturation,
Hue and Lum Mix settings.
Master Wheels
Use the master wheels below the color wheels to adjust each YRGB channels’ lift, gamma and
gain controls.
To make adjustments using the master wheel:
Drag the master wheel left or right: Dragging to the left darkens the selected parameter
of the image, dragging to the right lightens that parameter. As you make an adjustment, the
YRGB parameters underneath change to reflect the adjustment you’re making. To make a
Y-only adjustment, hold down the ALT or Command key and drag left or right. Because the
color corrector uses YRGB processing, you can get quite creative and create unique affects
by adjusting the Y channel only. Y channel adjustments work best when the Lum Mix setting
is set to the right side to use YRGB processing vs the left side to use regular RGB processing.
Normally, most DaVinci Resolve colorists use the YRGB color corrector as you get a lot more
control of color balance without affecting overall gain, so you spend less time getting the
look you want.
32
Using ATEM Software Control
Contrast Setting
The Contrast setting gives you control over the distance between the darkest and lightest values of
an image. The effect is similar to making opposing adjustments using the lift and gain master wheels.
The default setting is 50%.
Contrast, Saturation, Hue and Lum Mix settings.
Saturation Setting
The Saturation setting increases or decreases the amount of color in the image. The default
setting is 50%.
Hue Setting
The Hue setting rotates all hues of the image around the full perimeter of the color wheel. The default
setting of 180 degrees shows the original distribution of hues. Raising or lowering this value rotates
all hues forward or backward along the hue distribution as seen on a color wheel.
Lum Mix Setting
The color corrector built into your Blackmagic Studio Camera is based on the DaVinci Resolve primary
color corrector. DaVinci has been building color correctors since the early 1980’s and most Hollywood
films are color graded on DaVinci Resolve than any other method.
This means the color corrector built into your Blackmagic Studio Camera has some unique and
creatively powerful features. The YRGB processing is one of those features.
When color grading, you can choose to use RGB processing, or YRGB processing. High end colorists
use YRGB processing because you have more precise control over color and you can independently
adjust the channels with better separation and more creative options.
When the Lum Mix control is set to the right side, you have the 100% output of the YRGB color
corrector. When you have the Lum Mix control set to the left side, you get 100% output of the RGB
corrector. You can set the Lum Mix to any position between the left and right to get a blend of output
from both the RGB and YRGB correctors.
Which is the correct setting to use? That's up to you, as color correction is a pure creative process
and there is no right and wrong, and the best setting is what you like the most and what you think
looks good!
Synchronizing Settings
When connected, camera control signals are sent from the ATEM switcher to your Blackmagic Studio
Camera. If a setting is accidentally adjusted from your Studio Camera, camera control will automatically
reset that setting to maintain synchronization.

Blackmagic Video Device Embedded Control Protocol
Version 1.0
If you are a software developer you can use the Video Device Embedded Control Protocol to construct
devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design, our approach is to open up our
protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!
Overview
This document describes an extensible protocol for sending a uni-directional stream of small control
messages embedded in the non-active picture region of a digital video stream.
The video stream containing the protocol stream may be broadcast to a number of devices. Device
addressing is used to allow the sender to specify which device each message is directed to.
Assumptions
Alignment and padding constraints are explicitly described in the protocol document. Bit fields are
packed from LSB first. Message groups, individual messages and command headers are defined as,
and can be assumed to be, 32 bit aligned.
Blanking Encoding
A message group is encoded into a SMPTE 291M packet with DID/SDID x51/x53 in the active region
of VANC line 16.
Message Grouping
Up to 32 messages may be concatenated and transmitted in one blanking packet up to a maximum
of 255 bytes payload. Under most circumstances, this should allow all messages to be sent with a
maximum of one frame latency.
If the transmitting device queues more bytes of message packets than can be sent in a single frame,
it should use heuristics to determine which packets to prioritise and send immediately. Lower priority
messages can be delayed to later frames, or dropped entirely as appropriate.
34
Developer Information
Abstract Message Packet Format
Every message packet consists of a three byte header followed by an optional variable length data
block. The maximum packet size is 64 bytes.
Destination device (uint8)
Device addresses are represented as an 8 bit unsigned integer. Individual
devices are numbered 0 through 254 with the value 255 reserved to indicate a
broadcast message to all devices.
Command length (uint8)
The command length is an 8 bit unsigned integer which specifies the length
of the included command data. The length does NOT include the length of
the header or any trailing padding bytes.
Command id (uint8)
The command id is an 8 bit unsigned integer which indicates the message type
being sent. Receiving devices should ignore any commands that they do not
understand. Commands 0 through 127 are reserved for commands that apply
to multiple types of devices. Commands 128 through 255 are device specific.
Reserved (uint8)
This byte is reserved for alignment and expansion purposes. It should be set
to zero.
Command data (uint8[])
The command data may contain between 0 and 60 bytes of data. The format
of the data section is defined by the command itself.
Padding (uint8[])
Messages must be padded up to a 32 bit boundary with 0x0 bytes. Any
padding bytes are NOT included in the command length.
Receiving devices should use the destination device address and/or the command identifier to
determine which messages to process. The receiver should use the command length to skip irrelevant
or unknown commands and should be careful to skip the implicit padding as well.
35
Developer Information
Defined Commands
Command 0 : change configuration
Category (uint8)
The category number specifies one of up to 256 configuration categories
available on the device.
Parameter (uint8)
The parameter number specifies one of 256 potential configuration
parameters available on the device. Parameters 0 through 127 are device
specific parameters. Parameters 128 though 255 are reserved for parameters
that apply to multiple types of devices.
Data type (uint8)
The data type specifies the type of the remaining data. The packet length is
used to determine the number of elements in the message. Each message
must contain an integral number of data elements.
Currently defined values are:
0: void / boolean
A void value is represented as a boolean array of length zero.
The data field is a 8 bit value with 0 meaning false and all other values meaning true.
1: signed byte
Data elements are signed bytes
2: signed 16 bit integer
Data elements are signed 16 bit values
3: signed 32 bit integer
Data elements are signed 32 bit values
4: signed 64 bit integer
Data elements are signed 64 bit values
5: UTF-8 string
Data elements represent a UTF-8 string with no terminating character.
Data types 6 through 127 are reserved.
36
Developer Information
128: signed 5.11 fixed point
Data elements are signed 16 bit integers representing a real number with
5 bits for the integer component and 11 bits for the fractional component.
The fixed point representation is equal to the real value multiplied by 2^11.
The representable range is from -16.0 to 15.9995 (15 + 2047/2048).
Data types 129 through 255 are available for device specific purposes.
Operation type (uint8)
The operation type specifies what action to perform on the specified
parameter. Currently defined values are:
0: assign value
The supplied values are assigned to the specified parameter. Each
element will be clamped according to its valid range.
A void parameter may only be “assigned” an empty list of boolean type.
This operation will trigger the action associated with that parameter.
A boolean value may be assigned the value zero for false, and any other

If you are a software developer you can use the Video Device Embedded Control Protocol to construct
devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our
protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!
Overview
This document describes an extensible protocol for sending a uni-directional stream of small control
messages embedded in the non-active picture region of a digital video stream.
The video stream containing the protocol stream may be broadcast to a number of devices. Device
addressing is used to allow the sender to specify which device each message is directed to.
Assumptions
Alignment and padding constraints are explicitly described in the protocol document. Bit fields are packed
from LSB first. Message groups, individual messages and command headers are defined as, and can be
assumed to be, 32 bit aligned.
Blanking Encoding
A message group is encoded into a SMPTE 291M packet with DID/SDID x51/x53 in the active region of
VANC line 16.
Message Grouping
Up to 32 messages may be concatenated and transmitted in one blanking packet up to a maximum of
255 bytes payload. Under most circumstances, this should allow all messages to be sent with a maximum
of one frame latency.
If the transmitting device queues more bytes of message packets than can be sent in a single frame,
it should use heuristics to determine which packets to prioritise and send immediately. Lower priority
messages can be delayed to later frames, or dropped entirely as appropriate.
76
DeveloperInformation
Abstract Message Packet Format
Every message packet consists of a three byte header followed by an optional variable length data
block. The maximum packet size is 64 bytes.
Destination device (uint8)
Device addresses are represented as an 8 bit unsigned in teger. Individual
devices are numbered 0 through 254 with the value 255 reserved to indicate a
broadcast message to all devices.
Command length (uint8)
The command length is an 8 bit unsigned integer which specifies the length
of the included command data. The length does NOT include the length of
the header or any trailing padding bytes.
Command id (uint8)
Reserved (uint8)
Command data (uint8[])
Padding (uint8[])
The command id is an 8 bit unsigned integer which indicates the message type
being sent. Receiving devices should ignore any commands that they do not
understand. Commands 0 through 127 are reserved for commands that apply
to multiple types of devices. Commands 128 through 255 are device specific.
This byte is reserved for alignment and expansion purposes. It should be set
to zero.
The command data may contain between 0 and 60 bytes of data.
The format of the data section is defined by the command itself.
Messages must be padded up to a 32 bit boundary with 0x0 bytes. Any
padding bytes are NOT included in the command length.
Receiving devices should use the destination device address and/or the command identifier to determine
which messages to process. The receiver should use the command length to skip irrelevant or unknown
commands and should be careful to skip the implicit padding as well.
77
DeveloperInformation
Defined Commands
Command 0 : change configuration
Category (uint8)
The category number specifies one of up to 256 configuration categories
available on the device.
Parameter (uint8)
The parameter number specifies one of 256 potential configuration
parameters available on the device. Parameters 0 through 127 are device
specific parameters. Parameters 128 though 255 are reserved for parameters
that apply to multiple types of devices.
Data type (uint8)
The data type specifies the type of the remaining data. The packet length is
used to determine the number of elements in the message. Each message
must contain an integral number of data elements.
Currently defined values are:
0: void / boolean
A void value is represented as a boolean array of length zero.
The data field is a 8 bit value with 0 meaning false and all other values
meaning true.
1: signed byte
Data elements are signed bytes
2: signed 16 bit integer
Data elements are signed 16 bit values
3: signed 32 bit integer
Data elements are signed 32 bit values
4: signed 64 bit integer
Data elements are signed 64 bit values
5: UTF-8 string
Data elements represent a UTF-8 string with no terminating char ac ter.
Data types 6 through 127 are reserved.
78
DeveloperInformation
128: signed 5.11 fixed point
Data elements are signed 16 bit integers representing a real number with
5 bits for the integer component and 11 bits for the fractional component.
The fixed point representation is equal to the real value multiplied by 2^11.
The representable range is from -16.0 to 15.9995 (15 + 2047/2048).
Data types 129 through 255 are available for device specific purposes.
Operation type (uint8)
The operation type specifies what action to perform on the specified
parameter. Currently defined values are:
0: assign value
The supplied values are assigned to the specified parameter. Each element
will be clamped according to its valid range.
A void parameter may only be “assigned” an empty list of boolean type. This
operation will trigger the action associated with that parameter.
A boolean value may be assigned the value zero for false, and any other
value for true.
1: offset / toggle value
Each value specifies signed offsets of the same type to be added to the
current parameter values.The resulting parameter value will be clamped
according to their valid range.
It is not valid to apply an offset to a void value.
Applying any offset other than zero to a boolean value will invert that value.

Nous vous remercions d'avoir fait l'acquisition d'une Blackmagic Studio Camera.
Nous avons conçu la Blackmagic Studio Camera avec beaucoup d'enthousiasme.
J'ai toujours adoré la production en direct, et cela depuis mon adolescence.
Dans le passé, les caméras pourvues des fonctions tally et réseau d'ordres étaient
très onéreuses et très grandes, donc difficiles à gérer. Nous souhaitions vraiment
remédier à ce problème en créant une caméra plus compacte incluant des
fonctionnalités telles que le réseau d'ordres, le tally et le contrôle de la caméra
qui sont normalement offertes par des caméras de plus grande taille.
C'est la raison pour laquelle nous avons développé la Blackmagic Studio Camera.
Nous désirions créer une caméra beaucoup plus petite pour des raisons de
portabilité, cependant les petites caméras sont généralement dotées de tous
petits écrans. C'est ce que nous voulions éviter. Ce que nous recherchions, c'était
un viseur beaucoup plus grand ! Et voilà le résultat : la Blackmagic Studio Camera
est une petite caméra broadcast mais elle possède un très grand viseur qui est
un vrai plaisir à utiliser. Il est très facile de réaliser une mise au point et un cadrage
précis avec un viseur de cette taille.
Il va sans dire que vous bénéficiez également d'indicateurs tally, d'un réseau
d'ordres, d'une puissante batterie intégrée sans oublier une caméra d'excellente
qualité équipée d'une monture d'objectif Micro 4/3 flexible. C'est tout ce dont vous
avez besoin dans un seul produit ! Vous pouvez brancher des microphones munis
de bonnettes anti-vent même si ces derniers nécessitent une alimentation fantôme.
Vous pouvez également ajouter un module SFP pour disposer d'une connexion
fibre optique lorsque vous devez placer votre caméra à des kilomètres de votre
mélangeur. Si vous le souhaitez, vous pouvez même ajouter un HyperDeck Shuttle
et utiliser la caméra pour la production générale.
Malgré sa petite taille, la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K repousse les limites
fixées par la Blackmagic Studio Camera ! Cette petite caméra allie un capteur
Ultra HD incroyable à de nombreuses fonctionnalités de contrôle à distance. Vous
êtes désormais en mesure de capturer des images de qualité professionnelle et
de contrôler la caméra grâce à un mélangeur ATEM ou à votre propre système de
contrôle à distance.
Nous espérons que vous allez utiliser votre nouvelle caméra pour créer des
productions en direct exceptionnelles et produire des travaux au rendu remarquable !
Nous nous réjouissons de voir les travaux créatifs que vous allez réaliser !

Entrée/Sortie optiques
Pour disposer d'une entrée et d’une sor tie fibre optique, il vous faudra installer un module SFP fibre optique en
option. Cela vous permet d'utiliser des connecteurs LC conformes aux normes de l'industrie, qui prennent en
charge des signaux 3G-SDI sur la Studio Camera HD, et des signaux 6G-SDI sur la Studio Camera 4K. Le câble
à fibre optique est très courant car il est également utilisé dans les réseaux informatiques. La fibre optique
permet une longueur de câble de 45 kilomètres ce qui est bien plus qu'il n'en faut même pour les diffusions
d'événements en plein air les plus exigeantes. Si les entrées optiques et SDI sont toutes deux connectées,
le signal de sortie provenant de l'appareil qui a été connecté en premier sera utilisé. Pour vous procurer un
module SFP fibre optique, contactez le revendeur Blackmagic Design le plus proche de chez vous. Pour

2 canaux audio pour le contrôle de vos enregistrements. Vous pouvez connecter n'importe quel type de
moniteur HDMI prenant en charge la HD, tel que le Blackmagic Video Assist, afin de faciliter le cadrage et
la mise au point de vos images. Cela vous permet aussi de naviguer dans les différents menus de la Micro
Studio Camera 4K.
La sortie HDMI adapte la fréquence d'images au format des images capturées par la caméra. Par exemple,
si la caméra est configurée en 2160p30, la sortie HDMI acheminera du 1080p30.

Port expansion
La petite taille de la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K favorise la réalisation de prises de vues uniques,
de gros plans, de scènes d'action et de séquences tournées dans des lieux restreints. Cependant, même si
la Micro Studio Camera 4K peut être facilement dissimulée, il n'en est pas de même pour le caméraman. Il
est donc important de pouvoir contrôler la caméra à distance pour profiter pleinement de sa petite taille.
Il est possible de configurer certains paramètres de la Micro Studio Camera 4K à l'aide d'un mélangeur ATEM
connecté à l'entrée SDI de la caméra, comme indiqué dans la section « Fonction Camera Control » de ce
manuel. Cependant, la majorité des options de contrôle sont disponibles via le port expansion.
Le connecteur DB-HD15 de la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K et le câble expansion fourni offrent une
large gamme de connexions, notamment l'alimentation, le contrôle LANC, les commandes PTZ et le genlock.
Nous vous encourageons à utiliser les câbles disponibles dans le commerce pour pouvoir exploiter au maximum
certaines fonctions spécifiques de la caméra ou de personnaliser vos propres câbles pour configurer la Micro
Studio Camera 4K en fonction de vos besoins. Pour plus d'information, consultez la section « Câble expansion
de la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K » de ce manuel.
97Connexions
Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K - Face droite
Entrée audio analogique
Le connecteur audio stéréo de 3,5mm fonctionne avec les liaisons micro et de niveau ligne. Vous pouvez
choisir entre ces deux liaisons dans les paramètres du menu Audio de la caméra. Il est important de choisir
le réglage approprié afin d'éviter que le son soit trop faible ou trop élevé.
Sortie SDI
Utilisez la sortie SDI pour acheminer de la vidéo 4:2:2 10 bits vers du matériel vidéo SDI professionnel tel que
des grilles de commutation, des moniteurs, des périphériques de capture SDI et des mélangeurs broadcast.
La Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K prend en charge le 6G-SDI. Vous aurez besoin d'un câble adaptateur
DIN 1.0/2.3 vers SDI pour connecter la caméra à des connecteurs SDI de taille standard.
Entrée SDI
Utilisez l'entrée SDI pour contrôler la Micro Studio Camera 4K à l’aide d’un mélangeur ATEM. Pour plus
d'information sur les fonctions de contrôle disponibles, consultez la section « Fonction Camera Control »
de ce manuel.

Câble expansion de la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K
Il existe deux façons d'accéder aux fonctionnalités du port expansion. Vous pouvez utiliser le câble expansion
vendu avec la Micro Studio Camera 4K ou personnaliser vos propres câbles.
Le câble expansion est doté de connecteurs permettant de contrôler les options suivantes.
1. Entrée d'alimentation
L'entrée d'alimentation de 12V de la caméra fonctionne avec un jack DC. Ce câble permet d’alimenter la
Micro Studio Camera 4K et d'effectuer une charge lente de la batterie lorsque celle-ci est fixée à la caméra.
Lorsque l'alimentation externe est utilisée, la caméra s'allume automatiquement.
2. Entrée de référence
Elle permet à de multiples caméras d'être synchronisées à un signal de référence blackburst ou tri-level. Le
fait de synchroniser des caméras à un signal de référence externe facilite la prévention d'erreurs de timing
qui peuvent provoquer un saut de l'image lors de la commutation entre différentes caméras.

3. LANC
Connectez un jack de 2,5mm à des télécommandes LANC pour contrôler de nombreuses fonctionnalités de
la caméra, telles que le démarrage et l'arrêt de l'enregistrement, le réglage du diaphragme, la mise au point
manuelle grâce à un bras fixé sur un trépied lorsqu'un objectif compatible est utilisé.
4. Commandes PTZ
Le connec teur RS-422 est utilisé pour envoyer les commandes PTZ reçues par le signal SDI de la Micro Studio
Camera 4K vers une tête motorisée.
5. Communication B4
Le connecteur DB-9 vous permet d'alimenter et de contrôler les objectifs broadcast B4 montés sur la Micro
Studio Camera 4K à l'aide d'un adaptateur Micro 4/3 vers B4. De plus, un objectif B4 intégrant la communication
série numérique est contrôlé et alimenté lorsque la Micro Studio Camera 4K est branchée à une source
d'alimentation externe. Vous pouvez régler différents paramètres, tels que l'iris, la mise au point et le zoom
de la même façon que sur un objectif Micro 4/3 actif. Le contrôle peut être effectué via un mélangeur ATEM
à partir du menu « Camera Control » ou à partir d’une interface de contrôle à distance accessible grâce au
câble expansion de la Micro Studio Camera 4K.
6. Servo numérique S.Bus
En connectant la caméra à un récepteur S.Bus compatible à l'aide d’un câble Futaba J, elle dispose de 18
canaux S.Bus auxquels il est possible d’assigner des fonctions de contrôle à distance. Ces fonctions incluent la
mise au point, le zoom motorisé, le contrôle de l'iris et autres. Pour obtenir plus d'informations sur l'attribution
de fonctions aux canaux S.Bus, consultez la section « Paramètres du menu Remote » de ce manuel.

Schéma de câblage pour le câble expansion de la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera
Lorsque vous utilisez le port expansion de la Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K, vous
n'aurez peut-être besoin que d'une seule ou de deux fonctions. Par exemple, il vous
faudra peut-être contrôler un objectif broadcast B4 tout en recevant une alimentation de
12V et un signal de référence. Il est très facile de personnaliser un connecteur pour qu’il
dispose de ces fonctions sans devoir vous encombrer de connecteurs supplémentaires.
Utilisez le schéma suivant pour connecter le câble expansion fourni ou consultez-le
pour relier correctement les connexions de votre câble personnalisé. La gamme
complète des broches disponibles est listée dans la section P1, tandis que les sousgroupes utilisés pour des fonctions particulières, ainsi que leur disposition au sein
des connecteurs appropriés, sont affichés dans les sections P2 à P7.
