Don't make the mistake of getting a nice collection of Sony E mount lenses or another mirrorless standard with a short flange distance. ![]() I know a lot of folks reading this are budget concious. We standardized on Canon cine lenses which work great on the Ursas - and the cameras are adaptable to PL mount if you ever want to rent lenses. And the grade is really where you figure out how good your camera actually is - and since the folks who make the grading software make the cameras and developed the partial debayered raw format they use, the product you get is pretty damn good! You essentially have Hollywood quality gear for a fraction of the price, and you're using the same color grading workflow that Hollywood actually uses - since Resolve is the standard for color grading for big films. So with Ursas you get 14.5 stops of dynamic range, raw and the Resolve workflow which braw integrates into beautifully. A new ARRI is $20 to $30K although I haven't looked lately. And just FYI the 12K Ursa dropped from about $11K to about $6K a few months after launch, so just be aware that that kind of thing happens. Was a conscious decision to vertically integrate this. Yes we were working with a company that was doing a great job but barely staying afloat, so I hired some of the team, and the rest had a soft landing.
