The Apple Immersive content creation landscape has matured rapidly, and Blackmagic Design, had a front-row seat to that evolution, observing many pioneering creators who first adopted the URSA Cine Immersive now scaling their productions significantly, adding second, third, and fourth cameras to meet the demands of their growing productions. The demand will expand significantly with the growth of live productions. This progress reflects a foundational belief that professional-grade tools should be within reach of every creator, a commitment that, paired with the manufacturing efficiencies gained from increased production volume, enabled them to make these cameras more accessible than ever.
- Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive is available now for US$24,995.

Blackmagic StudioBridge 10G PWR (available in June from US$2,495)
- Lets customers bridge 8 separate 10G Ethernet SMPTE-2110 connections into modern 100G SMPTE-2022-7 redundant systems. This means it’s possible to combine up to 8 separate cameras or converters into a 100G Ethernet IP video system. If the 10G Ethernet products use a single connection, then the Blackmagic StudioBridge 10G PWR will also bridge into the 2 x 100G Ethernet connections for a redundant broadcast system. Plus this converter has 4 separate internal power supplies so it can provide each of the 10G Ethernet connections with 90W PoE++ power.
“Our 10G Ethernet 2110 IP products are a really affordable way to build live production systems, but the problem is always how to connect them into larger redundant 100G broadcast systems,” said Grant Petty, Blackmagic Design CEO. “The StudioBridge 10G PWR solves that problem and the really exciting thing is that it’s powerful enough to connect and power 8 Studio Cameras from a single converter. That’s a lot of power and we think customers are going to love how simple it makes building large scale camera systems with full redundancy!”

More Blackmagic coming in May!
I’m currently testing the Blackmagic Design ProDock for smartphones and the Blackmagic Camera App in small productions. It’s truly a great way for independents and influencers to create quality video productions at home, office or on location with minimal gear and achieve professional results.
