Blackmagic Design Ursa Broadcast G2. Includes cards and batteries
This was a Super 8 version of the Single 8 518 SV developed at the same time. Performance was improved significantly from the preceding model, the Auto Zoom 518 Super 8, thanks to a powerful Servo EE mechanism and a new optical system. This model was made more useful by employing the drop-in method for the film-loading mechanism and a firm fixed grip. Fade in/out became possible because the aperture could be completely closed via a manual aperture control.
