Blackmagic Studio SDI Out

PostThu Oct 04, 2018 5:57 pm

I am a high school teacher who has started a studio production class at my school. I have never used blackmagic products, but really love the Studio cameras specs.

My question is will the camera's SDI output work with any system? Or does it need a blackmagic converter?

I am currently running a MAC Pro (Aluminum case) with Blackmagic capture cards. Upgrading to the Decklink Duo 2 soon.

The Studio camera outputs a standard SDI Video signal, at 1080 HD or UHD resolution, with 4.2.2, 10-bit YUV color space. It will work with any SDI capable device that will accept this signal.

If yiu send an audio signal into the camera, from a mich inout for example, then yes, the audio signal is embedded in the video SDI output.
