Product Features in Detail

Industry-Standard PL Compatibility

The URSA Cine PL Mount is precision-engineered to bridge the gap between your camera and the world’s most prestigious cinema glass. It allows for the seamless use of professional PL-mount lenses, such as the ARRI Master Primes or Cooke S4/i series, enabling you to capture the distinct textures, flares, and character that have defined modern cinema for decades.

Advanced Cooke /i Technology Support

Equipped with high-precision electronic contact pins, this mount fully supports the Cooke /i Technology protocol. This allows the camera to automatically detect and record frame-by-frame lens metadata—including focal length, focus distance, and aperture—directly into your Blackmagic RAW files, providing invaluable data for visual effects (VFX) and post-production.

Interchangeable "Future-Proof" Design

Built as part of Blackmagic’s modular ecosystem, this mount is easily interchangeable with LPL, EF, and even Hasselblad mounts. This versatility allows cinematographers to adapt their camera body to different lens packages on a per-project basis, ensuring the URSA Cine remains a flexible tool whether you are shooting a vintage-inspired period piece or a modern 12K commercial.

Rock-Solid Mechanical Stability

Designed to handle the significant weight and torque of heavy cinema zoom lenses, the mount features a robust locking ring system. This ensures a zero-play connection between the lens and the camera body, preventing any micro-movements that could shift the focus plane or disrupt the optical alignment during high-speed camera maneuvers or when using motorized follow-focus systems.

Optimized for High-Resolution Sensors

The mount is meticulously calibrated to maintain the exact flange focal distance required for the URSA Cine’s large-format sensor. This mechanical precision ensures that your lenses perform at their peak optical resolution, delivering edge-to-edge sharpness and maintaining accurate focus marks across the entire frame, even when shooting at a massive 12K resolution.

Streamlined VFX and Post Workflow

By capturing real-time lens data through its integrated electronics, this PL mount significantly reduces the manual labor required in post-production. Editors and colorists in DaVinci Resolve can instantly see the exact lens settings used for every shot, while VFX artists can use the recorded distortion and shading data to more accurately composite digital elements into live-action footage.
