That handle fits perfectly with this camera. The Canon C100 and C200 was the first cinema cameras I used and gain my "professional" experience on.

[FrameVoyager]

It's still my go to camera. I always recommend it to people over the 12k

I sold my FX6 two weeks ago for the G2, best decision ever! Can't beat Blackmagic image quality within this budget range

[wavescentralstudios]

Codecs, colours, dynamic range, mic preamp. This camera changed my life!

DUDE. The moment you mentioned mount and blade... you got me. Subscribed.

I’ve been using the Ursa G2 for 5+ years now as my main camera. I always hear the same thing from folks on set when they see or hear I use Blackmagic. “Oh are those any good? How do you like it?”

Early impressions from Blackmagic have surely affects the public’s opinion on their brand, but when I deliver final images everyone’s reaction is always the same. “Wow this looks incredible! What a fantastic image!”

The Ursa G2 is such an incredible camera body and a workhorse that has outperformed since the day it came out. I’m extremely optimistic about the future of the new Cine 12K & 17K line. Everyone in the professional film world will continue to underestimate and shrug off Blackmagics higher end cameras, but at the end of the day, they won’t be able to find a difference in the final image and it’s ease of use in the field.

As a professional cinematographer and narrative filmmaker, the Ursa Mini Pro 4.6k's have been my weapon of choice even in 2024. Agree with all the points in this vid! So many awesome features. For the price, I don't think there's anything that can compare even in 2024.

I picked up a g2 last month and CANT complain love it.

"Blair Witch Project in a sewer." This video fills those tiny gaps in my gear-addicted soul. The Ursa has been my workhorse for years and will continue to be.

[WE_ARE_]

Yeah. I LOVED the Ursa Mini I had. I picked up an Alexa mini but the ergo of the Ursa did it for me much more than the box shape. Amira & Ursa Mini are basically siblings... Maybe cousins.

Love to see the Ursa Mini Pro G2 still going hard. What a camera!

I had ursa G2, and sold it because got into influence of all other youtubers about cameras. I was really happy about my R5C and I am still happy, because it is also photo camera, but I opened my old home archives videos, where i was just filming my 1, 5 year old child making 1st steps, and the image from g2 was something unexplainable, it was more organic then other cameras I used. So after 2 years with DSLRS I have now Ursa 12k next to me. The Image from this camera is 1 step better then all other DSLRS even the Komodo feels too digital for me then URSA. It is much harder to use this camera, but like i explained to my wife. I am struggling with this camera because I love it. Guys I bought even Easyrig(weill kinda cheap one) to use it, and I am even not making videos for earning, just family stuff. =) if i ever get new camera it will be URSA CINE 12k

Jake, I'm loving your storytelling - and direct recording audio into a new Zoom - would never have thought of that and your voice over sounds soooo good - keep sharing bro! Oh DANG - when you start showing the colour science in Resolve - 100% mind blowing! WOW!

[taylorwinn]

I don't have time to watch this video right this minute, but gosh darnit if I don't agree with the title. Can't wait for this one my guy. Love your content!

[mrkumaran]

love the Ursa's. I have a G2 broadcast 6k, fantastic camera

[johnsospencer]

I've also been using the G2 I just wish prores had the V5 color science!

[ChrisParayno]

Finally someone who gets the power of ursas. At work we utilize the full URSA 6k G2. While it is a tad bit larger and heavier, its definitely one of my favorite cameras to work with. Most of the time we urlize a PL mount for broadcast 22x and 99x lenses, but for documentaries we switch to canon/sigma EF lenses.

[AspectStudio]

This is hilarious. One of the videos I made about the Canon HF G40 camcorder starts in a very similar way. Great video.

Ursa G2 is the damn goat, loved picking up my second hand one earlier this year

[rulghoul]

I also love my dearest Ursa 4.6k g2 xD and I'm about to shoot my first full length film with her... hoping it will be the first of many with her ^^

[jakebaine]

Had one of these. First one I had featured a bad sensor, swapped it out for a new one.

Second one was dope. Loved it, the image quality was great. That being said, the thing is massive and for the work I was doing at the time, it wasn’t for me. Ended up selling it. I still love the image I was able to get out of it.
