Setting Date And Time; White Balance - Blackmagicdesign Blackmagic URSA Installation And Operation Manual

Use the ATEM Camera ID setting on your URSA Mini to identify
your camera when using it with an ATEM switcher. This allows
tally and control information to be sent to the right camera.

Setting Date and Time

To set date and time on your Blackmagic URSA or URSA Mini, tap the + or - icons to change the
year, month and day settings.
Time is set to 24 hour format. To set the time, tap the + and - icons to make adjustments.
If traveling with your Blackmagic URSA or URSA Mini, remember to change the date and time to
local time zones.
If you have your Blackmagic URSA or URSA Mini stored for long periods, the time may need to
be reset. It is always a good idea to check the time and date prior to recording. When
connecting your camera to your computer via USB and launching Blackmagic Camera Setup
utility, Blackmagic URSA's time is synced to your computer time.
ISO
To adjust the ISO settings, tap the ISO arrow icons.
ISO settings are helpful when you are shooting in a variety of light conditions. The optimum ISO
setting for your Blackmagic URSA or URSA Mini 4K is ISO 400. Blackmagic URSA Mini 4.6K's
optimum setting is 800 ISO.
Depending on your situation, however, you may choose a lower or higher ISO setting. For
example, in low light conditions ISO 800 can be suitable when shooting on URSA or URSA Mini
4K but may introduce some visible noise. In bright conditions ISO 200 can provide richer colors.

White Balance

To adjust the 'white balance' settings, tap the white balance arrow icons with your finger.
Your Blackmagic URSA includes white balance presets for a variety of color temperature
conditions. These are:
2500, 2800, 3000, 3200, 3400, 3600, 4000, 4500 and 4800K for various conditions
‚
under tungsten, incandescent or fluorescent light, or under dull natural light including
candle light, sunrise/sunset, morning, and after noon light.
5000, 5200, 5400 and 5600K for outdoors on a clear, sunny day.
‚
6000, 6500, 7000, 7500 and 8000K for a variety of daylight conditions.
‚
Every light source emits a color. For example, a candle flame emits a warm color, and an
overcast sky emits a cool color. White balance settings are used to color balance your image so
white stays white. For example, when shooting under tungsten lamps which emit a warm light,
selecting 3200K adds some blue to the image. This balances the color so white is
accurately recorded.
Color balance settings can also be used for creating color effects. For example, setting your
white balance to 7500K can significantly warm your picture to create an intimate mood.
