Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro 12K (PL) - Manual (Page 83)

Project frame rate
The project frame rate is URSA Mini’s recording format frame rate and provides a selection of
common frame rates used in the film and television industry. This frame rate is normally set to
match your playback speed used in your post production workflow.
Your Blackmagic URSA Mini has 8 project frame rate settings including 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30,
50, 59.94 and 60 frames per second.
To adjust your URSA Mini’s project frame rate while in the ‘FPS’ menu, tap the left or right
arrows next to the current frame rate at the bottom left of your touchscreen. Alternatively,
you can drag the slider left or right.
Tap the arrows on either side of the project frame rate or move the slider to make adjustments
TIP Your URSA Mini’s project frame rate also sets the frame rate of the front and main
SDI outputs.
Sensor frame rate
The sensor frame rate sets how many actual frames from the sensor are recorded every
second. This frame rate will affect how fast or slow your video will play back at your set project
frame rate.
With ‘off speed frame rate’ enabled, tap the arrows on either side of the sensor
frame rate, move the slider or tap one of the presets to make adjustments
By default, your URSA Mini’s project and sensor frame rates are matched for a natural playback
speed. However, by tapping the ‘off speed frame rate’ switch icon in the bottom right hand side
of your URSA Mini’s ‘FPS’ menu, you can independently set your sensor frame rate.
To change your sensor frame rate, tap the arrows next to the sensor frame rate indicator in the
lower left of your touchscreen. You can also drag the slider left or right to increase or decrease
the frame rate. Once you release the slider, the sensor frame rate will be selected. Above the
slider, you can select a recommended off speed frame rate that is based on your current project
frame rate.
