For information on the types of B4 lenses and how to use them with your camera, refer to the
‘Using Servo Zoom Lenses’ section in this manual.
NOTE When no lens is attached to the camera, the optical element of URSA
Broadcast G2’s B4 mount isexposed to dust and other debris. Ensure that you
keepthe dust cap on whenever possible.
Many B4 lenses can be quite long due to their extreme zoom range. When using URSA
Broadcast G2 with B4 lenses, your camera’s center of gravity will move forward. The URSA
Mini shoulder pad included with your camera can be adjusted accordingly.
Center of gravity
When mounting URSA Broadcast G2 on the URSA Mini shoulder pad, it’s a good idea to mount
the camera towards the rear of the shoulder pad base when using longer zoom lenses. This
moves your camera rig’s center of gravity back over the middle of the pad, making it easier to
balance on your shoulder and rest steadily when sitting on a desk or flat surface. Refer to the
‘URSA Mini Shoulder Kit’ section later in this manual for more information on fitting the
shoulder pad.
Powering your Camera
Now that you’ve attached a lens, you will need to supply power. The quickest way to power
your camera is to connect external power using the supplied AC to 12V DC adapter.
To plug in external power:
1 Connect the AC to 12V DC adapter plug to your mains power socket.
2 Connect the AC to 12V DC adapter’s 4 pin XLR connector to the 12-18V DC power
connector on the camera.
If you have both external and battery power connected, only external power will be used. If you
remove external power while a charged battery is connected, your camera will switch to battery
power without interruption.
