URSA mini 4.6K users experiencing lens shading issues - also known as the "Magenta Issue" - may no longer have to put up with this because of the new Blackmagic Camera Setup 3.3 update. Some users have experienced difficulty in getting the best from their URSA Mini 4.6K cameras due to heavy magenta corners when working with certain f-stops.

Version 12.5 of Blackmagic Design's grading and editing software suite DaVinci Resolve is now officially available for download. The software has been going through major updates and is finally out of beta testing. You can download the DaVinci Resolve 12.5 and Resolve 12.5 Studio directly from the Blackmagic Design website.

Some of the major Blackmagic Design announcements at NAB 2016 are the brand new Video Assist 4K recorder and 7-inch monitor, some really exciting new features in their colour grading DaVinci Resolve 12.5 suite, and a new and completely overhauled OS/User Interface for URSA Mini 4K and 4.6K cameras.

Popular stills and video YouTube channel the Slanted Lens put the super popular and quite new Blackmagic URSA Mini 4.6K digital cinema camera against the often cited as industry standard measuring stick - the ARRI Alexa in a under/overexposure and recovery test for skin tones and dynamic range.

Last week, Blackmagic Design announced that their much-awaited Ursa Mini 4.6K & Micro Cinema cameras are shipping and now they have released a new firmware update this time adding new functionality for their URSA Mini 4K global shutter camera.
