Compact 4K studio camera for tight live production
The Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K G2 is a miniature broadcast camera built around a native 4K sensor with 13 stops of dynamic range. Its magnesium alloy core keeps the body rugged while staying barely larger than its Micro Four Thirds lens mount. The camera outputs 12G-SDI for HD and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60 and can record Blackmagic RAW directly to USB-C disks. It is designed for live production environments where space is at a premium.
Suits multi-camera crews needing remote control
This camera suits operators who need to place 4K capture points in confined locations such as rigs, pods or tight studio corners. The MFT mount accepts a wide range of affordable lenses and adapters for broadcast glass. Front-panel buttons give quick menu access and record triggering. Power options include 12 V input or LP-E6 battery for mobile setups. Buyers who require integrated zoom servos, built-in ND filters or a larger sensor format should look at alternative camera types.
Handles 2160p60 over 12G-SDI
The sensor and 12G-SDI pipeline comfortably handle 4K 60 fps workflows with log gamma for in-camera colour grading headroom. USB-C recording provides a convenient local capture path without external recorders. The single MFT mount limits native lens choices to that ecosystem; users needing PL, B4 or full-frame mounts must add adapters. Remote control and tally rely on SDI/HDMI protocols, so installations without that infrastructure will not gain those features.

Questions about this item
Which MFT lenses can I mount on this camera?
Any Micro Four Thirds lens fits the native MFT mount, so you can use existing MFT glass or add adapters for other lens systems.
Will my existing 12G-SDI cables and switchers carry the 2160p60 signal from this camera?
Yes, the 12G-SDI output supports HD and Ultra HD up to 2160p60, so current 12G-SDI infrastructure passes the full-resolution feed without new cabling.
How can I confirm the camera is recording Blackmagic RAW to the USB-C disk?
The front-panel buttons open the on-screen menu where the recording status and codec are displayed, letting you verify Blackmagic RAW capture in real time.
