Great Review Josh - I've been shooting Country Calendar and other docs using the URSA G2 as my main camera and the Pocket 6K as my gimbal camera and it's been solid for 4 years. The URSA is just starting to give me trouble, so its been sent to Aussie to see whats up. I just found your review because I was googling for a G2 Camera body to hire. I'll stay with the BM set up as the pictures are awesome. Interesting to see your lens choice will look for other posts - nice work.

Building out a similar rig here, how did you mount the Vmount battery plate to the SSD Bay?
@JoshuaKirkNZ
2 жыл бұрын
It is the same Vmount plate that normally attaches to the camera, so the SSD unit just sits between the body and the battery plate.

Would you recommend this over the 12K? Due to more dynamic range
@JoshuaKirkNZ
2 жыл бұрын
I'd recommend the 4.6k over the 12K solely for the smaller file sizes. 12k is sooo much data that is hardly ever needed. Not to mention there aren't many affordable lenses that can actually resolve 12K worth of sharpness. I do like the higher frame rates that the 12k offers. Disclaimer though - I've never shot with the 12k myself :-)

There are many places to learn about filmmaking! I would try and learn as much as possible from KZitem first and then find out what you really want to do. Then from there you could take online masterclasses, or volunteer at a production company. :-)

Thanks Joshua. Great video. Your rig is almost verbatim to what I've recently spec'd out, including the DZO Zooms and Ninja V. It looks like the SSD is disco'd for the 4.6K G2... only the 12K is now supported... and I prefer 4.6K over 12K for bigger photosites on a Super35. I'm used to to recording to a SamsungT5 with my BMPCC4K, but it looks like the USB-C port is under the flip out screen on the G2. I hate the idea of leaving the flip out open. Seems like recording to CFAST, SSD (for BRAW) and to Ninja V (other) will have to do. If you have other suggestions re: SSD storage, that would be great. Also looking at this config for virtual production/mixed reality. Any experience with the G2's genlock? Subscribed. Thank you again!
@JoshuaKirkNZ

Hey thanks for the comment! The SSD unit is a nice option, and I like the new design with the 12K because it uses USBC rather than 2x of the SDI ports. I think if I was to do more live production work on the 4.6K I would definitely want the back 12G SDI ports to be free, so the SSD unit would have to go. In terms of genlock I have only ever used a camlink from the sound op which syncs my camera to their timecode. It works great, but that is with the timecode generated on their end, not from the URSA.

@@JoshuaKirkNZ Hah, might be worth it to specify that. I very much noticed the Kiwi accent, but seeing as the majority of L1 English speakers on earth are American, the word "dollar" is presumed to be the American one unless otherwise specified (online and in international contexts). That's what some of us are incredibly confused about the price (I came to the comments to see if you'd explained it) - for us, the Ursa 12k is $6,000; and the Ursa 4.6k, even cheaper. So when you said it was $25,000, it very much elicits a terrified "OH GOD WHY DID HE PAY THAT MUCH MONEY" response.
