Welcome
Thank you for purchasing a Blackmagic Studio Camera!
We are extremely excited to have designed the Blackmagic Studio Camera and Micro
Studio Camera 4K. Ever since I was a teenager I have loved live production, it’s so exciting!
Traditionally cameras with talkback and tally were very expensive and physically large,
so hard to manage. We really wanted to solve this problem by designing a more compact
camera that included all the talkback, tally and camera control features of physically
much larger cameras.
Thats why the Blackmagic Studio Camera was developed. We wanted to build a much
smaller camera for portability, however normally small cameras have small tiny screens.
We did not want that. What we really wanted was a much larger viewfinder! The result is
Blackmagic Studio Camera, a small broadcast camera with a very large viewfinder thats
wonderful to use! Precise focus and framing are so easy with a viewfinder this large!
Of course you get tally indicators, talkback, of course a fantastic quality camera with
flexible MFT lens mount. It’s everything you need in a complete package! You can plug
in larger wind protected microphones even with phantom power and with user installable
optical fiber, you can add an SFP module when you need to run your camera miles away
from your switcher! If you need, you can even add a HyperDeck Shuttle and use the
camera for general production use!
Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K takes the small size and capability of Blackmagic
Studio Camera even further! This tiny camera pairs an amazing Ultra HD sensor with
an incredibly tiny chassis and a host of remote control options. Now you can capture
broadcast production footage from previously impossible locations, all with complete
control from an ATEM switcher or via custom remote.
We hope you use your new camera for some amazing live productions and produce some
fantastic looking work! We are extremely excited to see what creative work you produce!

Getting Started
Attaching a Lens
Getting started with your Blackmagic Studio Camera or Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K is as
simple as attaching a lens and turning the camera on. To remove the protective dust cap from the
lens mount, hold down the locking button and rotate the cap counterclockwise until itis released.
We recommend you always turn off your Blackmagic camera prior to attaching or removing a lens.
To attach a lens:
1 Align the dot on your lens with the dot on the camera mount. Many lenses have either
ablue, red or white dot or some other indicator.
2 Twist the lens clockwise until it locks into place.
3 To remove the lens, hold down the locking button, rotate the lens counterclockwise
until its dot or indicator reaches the 12 o’clock position and gently remove.
When no lens is attached to the camera, the lens mount is exposed to dust and other debris
soyou’ll want to keep the dust cap on whenever possible.

Attaching and removing a lens on Micro Studio Camera 4K.
Turning Your Camera On
1 Press the power button below the LCD. On Blackmagic Studio Camera and Studio
Camera 4K models, the live camera image will appear on the LCD.
2 Press and hold the power button to switch off the camera.
TIP Blackmagic Studio Camera HD and Studio Camera 4K have internal batteries that
can be charged using the supplied power adapter. These camera can be charged and
operated while connected via external power and will switch between power sources
without interruption. Blackmagic Studio Camera 2 and Studio Camera 4K 2 does not
contain an internal battery and does not need to be charged.
5Getting Started
Micro Studio Camera 4K accepts LP-E6 and LP-E6N batteries, which can be charged with an
external battery charger or slowly trickle charged by the camera. The camera can also be
charged and operated via external power and will switch between power sources automatically
if external power is interrupted. External power is provided via the Micro Studio Camera 4K’s
expansion port.
1 Press the power button on the right hand side of the camera. The tally light will glow
white to indicate the camera is on.
2 Press and hold the power button to switch off your camera.
Thats all there is to getting started. You can now connect your camera to a switcher,
orATEMConverter, and start creating your live production!
Use the supplied power adapter to power the Studio Camera.
Connecting to a switcher
Your Blackmagic Studio Camera and Micro Studio Camera 4K can be remotely controlled from
an ATEM switcher via SDI for fast, interactive camera control during your live production.
Connecting via SDI
1 Connect your Blackmagic Studio Camera’s and Micro Studio Camera 4K’s SDI output to
any SDI input on the ATEM switcher.
2 Connect any one of the ATEM switcher’s SDI outputs, except down converted or multi
view outputs, to your Studio Camera’s SDI program input. Camera control signals are
not sent via the multi view and down converted SDI outputs.
TIP If you have the optional SFP Optical Module installed, you can use optical fiber to
connect your Blackmagic Studio Camera to an ATEM Switcher. This is great for long
cable runs as optical fiber can carry a signal up to 28 miles.
An ATEM Studio Converter or ATEM Talkback Converter 4K is required to complete the
connection to your ATEM Switcher. For more information on optical fiber setup refer to
the ‘connection diagrams’ section in the ATEM Converters manual.

6Getting Started
To connect your camera to an ATEM switcher, simply plug your camera’s
SDIoutput into any of your switcher’s SDI inputs. For camera control,
plug any of the ATEM switcher’s non down-converted outputs to your
camera’s programSDIinput. A quick and easy way to plug your switcher
into the camera isto connect one of the switcher’s program outputs.
Setting Button Mapping and Tally
Open ATEM Software Control Preferences and set the switchers button mapping settings to
make sure you are switching the right camera with correct tally.
To set the mapping settings:
1 Click on the menu bar at the top of the screen and open the ATEM Software Control
Preferences.
2 Click on the ‘Mapping’ tab and check the buttons correspond with the correct input.
Forexample, because your Studio Camera is connected to input 1 on your switcher,
‘Button 1’ should be set to ‘Input 1: Camera 1’.
3 On your Blackmagic Studio Camera, press ‘Menu’. Navigate to Studio Settings>Camera
Number and set it to match the switcher input. In this example, your Studio Camera is
connected to Cam 1 on the ATEM switcher, so the camera number must also be set to 1.
This ensures tally is sent to the correct camera.
Now that everything is plugged in and mapping is set, you can check that the program output
can be monitored on your camera and confirm that tally is working. A fast way to check is to
press the program button on your Blackmagic Studio Camera, then switch color bars to the
program output on your ATEM switcher. If you see color bars on your camera, you know the
program output is working properly with your camera.
Now switch camera 1 to the program output. The tally light on the Studio Camera should now
illuminate. If not, double check your camera number is set to the corresponding input on the
switcher, and that the mapping settings in the switcher are correct.
Using Camera Control
Your Blackmagic Studio Camera can be controlled from an ATEM switcher using the Camera
Control feature in ATEM Software Control.
Launch ATEM Software Control and click on the ‘Camera’ button located at the bottom of the
software window to open the camera control page. You will see a row of labeled camera
controllers containing tools to adjust and refine each camera’s image. Camera 1 is labelled
‘Cam 1.’ If the camera is switched to the program output it will display a red ‘On Air’ status.
Inside the ‘Cam 1’ controller you can make camera adjustments including color correction, lens
control on compatible lenses, camera settings and more. For more details on how to use the
camera control features, refer to the ‘using ATEM software control’ section for more information.

Blackmagic Studio Camera – Right Side
Optical Input/Output
For optical fiber input and output, you will need to install an optional optical fiber SFP module.
This lets you connect industry standard LC connectors, supporting 3G-SDI on Studio Camera
HD, and 6G-SDI on Studio Camera 4K. Optical fiber cable is widely available because its the
same cable used in computer networking. Optical fiber allows cable runs of up to 28 miles
which is more than enough for even the most demanding outside broadcast event.
If both optical and SDI inputs are connected, the output from the device which was connected
first will be used. To purchase an optical fiber SFP module for your Blackmagic Studio Camera,
contact your nearest Blackmagic Design reseller. You can find your nearest reseller on our
website at www.blackmagicdesign.com/resellers.
SDI Out
Use the SDI Out connector to output 10-bit 4:2:2 video to professional SDI video equipment
such as routers, monitors, SDI capture devices and broadcast switchers. Blackmagic Studio
Camera HD supports 3G-SDI, and Studio Camera 4K supports 12G-SDI.
SDI In
The SDI input allows the camera operator to view the Program (PGM) output. Simply press the
PGM button to toggle between live camera output and Program output from a switcher
control room.
If both optical and SDI inputs are connected, the output from the device which was connected
first will be used. If you’re using the Studio Camera to record to a device such as the
Blackmagic Hyperdeck Shuttle, the output from the Hyperdeck can be connected to the SDI
input so you can playback what you have just recorded.
Reference Input
This allows multiple cameras to be genlocked to a blackburst or tri-level reference signal.
Genlocking cameras to an external reference signal helps to prevent timing errors which may
result in the picture jumping when switching between different cameras.

Blackmagic Micro StudioCamera4K – Left Side
HDMI Output
The HDMI port on your Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K outputs 10-bit 4:2:2 1080p video
with 2 channels of audio for monitoring purposes. You can connect any HD capable HDMI
monitor, such as Blackmagic Video Assist, to frame and focus shots as well as navigating the
Micro Studio Camera 4K’s menus.
The frame rate of the HDMI output will match the format of the camera. For example, if the
camera is set to 2160p30, the HDMI output will be 1080p30.
When connected to an ATEM switcher, Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K provides a two
stage tally indicator on a monitor connected via the camera’s HDMI output. The monitor
displays a green border when switched to the preview output of the switcher, and red when
switched to the program output.
Expansion Port
Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K’s small size makes it easy to capture unique shots from
close to the action or difficult to reach spots. While your Micro Studio Camera 4K can be easily
tucked away out of sight, the same can’t always be said of a camera operator. So being able to
remotely control your camera is important to making full use of its tiny size.
You can adjust some settings on Micro Studio Camera 4K via SDI input with an ATEM Switcher,
as detailed in the section ‘Introducing Camera Control’ in this manual. However, the majority of
control options are provided by the expansion port.
Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K’s DB-HD15 connector provides a wide range of connections,
including power, LANC remote, pan, tilt, zoom and genlock via the expansion cable included.
We encourage you to use a wide range of easily available cables to access specific features, or to
solder your own custom connections and adapt the Micro Studio Camera 4K to your needs. See the
‘Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K Expansion Cable’ section in this manual for more information.

When using Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K’s expansion port you may only want to access
one or two functions. For example, you may want to control an attached B4 Broadcast Lens
while simultaneously receiving 12V power and a reference signal. It’s easy to make a connector
that will give you just these functions without the clutter of additional, unused connectors.
Use the following diagram when wiring the expansion cable included or use it as an example for
how you can wire up the connections on your own custom cable correctly. The full range of
available pins are listed under group P1, while the subsets used for particular functions, as well as
their layout within the appropriate connectors, are shown in groups P2 through P7.
