My first time ever to hear someone call the URSA Mini a baby.

4k/Ultra HD is Prores only.
I had seen reviews with an old menu system as well as the same menu system as the BMPCC 4k. This one has the newer menu system.
First filming in raw totally freaked me out. There sits a folder with 400+ dng raw still shots. Took some searching and time to figure out how to get Resolve to recognize what was going on and make a video clip out of all that.
First tests have made me very happy. Great highlight recovery, Plenty of light inside using a lantern diffuser at 400ISO to get some excellent exposure. Sweet skin tones and color all the way around for me. Shot a little outside and standing in the shade the screen was plenty bright.
Saw a ton of reviews bashing the lack of buttons but for my purposes I'm quite satisfied. I can leave the histogram, peaking, and zebra on and toggle false colors with little problem.
Did you get the URSA Mini 4K, the URSA Mini Pro 4.6K, or the URSA Mino Pro 4.6K G1 with early firmware? Sound like it’s one of those that didn’t came with BRAW but CDNG raw.
Cinema DNG generate one raw image file for every frame inside a folder.
