White Balance
The white balance setting next to the shutter speed control can be adjusted by clicking on the
left or right arrows on each side of the color temperature indicator. Different light sources emit
warm or cool colors, so you can compensate by adjusting the white balance. This ensures the
whites in your image stay white.
DaVinci Resolve Primary Color Corrector
If you have a color correction background, then you can change the camera control from a
switcher style CCU interface to a user interface that’s more like a primary color corrector on
a post production color grading system.
Your Blackmagic URSA Broadcast features a DaVinci Resolve primary color corrector built in.
If you have used DaVinci Resolve, then creatively, grading in your URSA Broadcast will be
identical so you can use your color grading experience for live production. The color corrector
panel can be expanded out of any camera controller and provides expanded color correction
control with extra settings and a full primary color corrector interface.
You have color wheels and settings such as saturation available and you can see shadows,
mid tones and highlight settings all at the same time. Simply switch between cameras using the
camera selection controls at the top of the window as you need.

TIP
Decreasing shutter speed is a good way to brighten your images without using
camera gain because you are increasing the exposure time of the image sensor.
This can also reduce or eliminate light flicker when shooting under fluorescent lights.
Increasing shutter speed reduces motion blur and is best used for action shots when
you want your images to be clean and sharp.
TIP
DaVinci Resolve color correction is applied to your URSA Broadcast's SDI output
and ProRes video recorded on camera. As RAW video is intended for post processing,
color correction is not applied to RAW video. When recording RAW video, however,
color correction can still be applied to URSA Broadcast's SDI output.
