Studio viewfinder URSA Viewfinder G2 display 7" tally - Blackmagic Design BLM-CINEURSANSVF2

The Blackmagic URSA Studio Viewfinder G2 is a viewfinder designed to transform the URSA Broadcast G2 into a true studio camera. Whether you’re working live in a studio or in a large venue like a stadium, the URSA Studio Viewfinder is the perfect all-in-one solution for working in comfort. It includes a Tally light, easy access controls and is fully adjustable to suit your shooting needs. The bright, adjustable 7” display lets you position the viewfinder independently of the camera, even when it’s on air. The mount allows for tilt up and down, pan and swivel, and there are multiple dials to adjust the amount of tension on the viewfinder. It also features a metal lens hood that’s ideal for bright outdoor environments.
