Why I shoot with the URSA Mini Pro G2

This definitely isn't a technical review. If you would like shots of charts and in depth analysis of the feature set, don't watch this video!
What's the perfect camera is an impossible question, but for me the Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 is the one I am currently using. It has the resolution, dynamic range, colour science, codecs and ergonomics that suit my workflow the best. It also matches up with the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, making that a brilliant camera B (Or in our case, gimbal camera).

[@averypeck]

Great review! I think one of the biggest under-valued strengths of the G2 is how it renders motion, which of course comes from the much improved readout time. It's not a global shutter technically, but I haven't run into a situation where the rolling shutter was noticeable. To me, this is a big plus!

[@rmdcade1717]

I love this channel. I learn so much about filming, whether it's the final production films, behind the scenes, tips and tutorials, or reviews.

I know approximately 0 things about serious filming and pro cameras, and yet I found this very interesting. My tech background allowed me to understand most of it with your explanations, and you really make it interesting even tho it's just a review of a product I'll never use or would have been interested in in the first place.

Mumbo I just wanna thank you for giving us so much motivation and inspiration

[@lago9505]

I've never worked with the G2, but I do use the G1 more or less everyday at my job. It's a true workhorse! In January I took it from Denmark to South Africa for a 10 day shoot, and there wasn't any problems at all, even on extremely hot days. One thing I miss though is the slowmotion capabilities of the G2... And great video :)

[@isaiahhumphreys9109]

[@oleemillindkilde8548]

Question for the Mumbo: How do you make interviews with people feel natural and emotional? I am just starting up with these mini-docs with a friend and noob DLSR's and one of our bigger problems is that people getting interviewed, well, talks like they are getting interviewed. they talk to an interviewer instead of a person or the audience.

[@coffeemakesmesweat532]

Ole Emil Lindkilde did you get an answer on this or come up with a method? I’m starting a mini-doc series myself, and I found that a lot of people were very formal. You have to make it a conversation.

[@waynelennon7600]

Nice info in there mate, I have been tempted to swap out the FS5 for the G2, having the BMRAW on both my cameras would be good. I love the FS5 set up, shooting prores gives loads of latitude for editing so its not a priority to change out but could happen for a bigger project in the future if colour matching is going to be more time limited

great video - thanks for sharing! Have been using the G1 for over a year and love it. What anamorphic setup do you have going there? Have been looking into similar options with a helios taking lens. Also when you're on the gimbal are you pulling focus yourself mostly or have an AC to pull? Also curious to what gimbal you mainly use!

[@TGVG_]

Amazing video! Really nice to see your G2 setup with the anamorphic setup on there! I think it would be interesting to see your anamorphic setup in a more detailed video. Btw, does your Rectilux reach infinity or did you had any problems with it?

[@donaldharmonify]

I saw this set up with the rapido fmj and said damn. Wonder what scope he uses for that setup, I checked and he hasn't made a video on it yet.

I wonder if the G4 will come out next year. I got into this 2 years ago and rocking P4K but really dying for a new cam (thinking of P6K Pro) but if only there was new on the horizon for new Ursa. I guess the 12K is the "G3"..

[@Qwerto-rd5kh]

I think with your filming style HDR films would work really we'll! Just an idea as I know an HDR monitor for creation is very expensive.

[@beckadeth]

Mumbo, I'm so jealous of you. I want a cinema camera so bad but I don't have A. the money, and B. the access to free cameras. I want a cinema camera so bad! My uncle is a freelance camera man. He worked on Avengers Endgame, Tiger King and lots of smaller projects. When I graduate highschool in 2023 I'm going to some sort of film school, hopefully LA Film School.

Hey mumbo, what would you say about the Sony FS7?

[@grinnazeed]

Hey Mumbo, if quarantine is over, you should go to Philippines and film about jeepneys and buy one yourself. I'm from Philippines BTW.

[@Veptis]

the sensor in this camera is custom build for this specific purpose. the 4k and 6k are just available sensors from Sony. the biggest plus on the UMP 2G is the shutter. it is the fastest rolling shutter out there. but you lose cDNG.
