Blackmagic Design ATEM Camera Control Panel

Easily Monitor and Optimize Camera Feed Quality

With the Blackmagic ATEM Camera Control Panel, you can now outfit your production studio with an expert level of control for up to four camera sources. This devoted control board gives camera assistants the freedom to actively monitor and adjust the visual details of each feed, including color balance and shutter speed, while simultaneously allowing camera operators to focus more on the creative side of the shoot and less on the production specifics. Its portability favors both studio and mobile production scenarios, and it can be easily integrated into sliding rack shelves. Live production professionals here at City Music also love the streamlined and intuitive interface. Working flawlessly in conjunction with Blackmagic’s URSA Broadcast, URSA Mini, Studio, and Micro Studio video cameras, the ATEM Camera Control Panel is a must-have addition for professional Blackmagic-equipped studio crews.

4-camera solo workstation

Camera feed control has never been so streamlined and optimized into a single unit — until now! The ATEM Camera Control Panel is convenient and effective enough for just one operator at the helm, establishing easy monitoring with per-camera LCD screens. Each camera channel boasts an array of professional controls that are labeled, color coded, and value illuminated to simplify the workflow of camera assistants and production monitors at all experience levels. And the ease of use is maintained wherever you’re operating! From newsrooms to sporting events and mobile coverage, this ATEM Camera Control Panel is ready to integrate into your studio or mobile rack-shelf system without a snag.

Professional-grade color control

Given the command over of all the feed details that the ATEM Camera Control Panel provides, your final product will look sharper and more visually balanced than ever. The upper section of each horizontal control channel houses master controls for your gain, white balance, and shutter speed, while also supplying save/recall commands for camera presets to essentially auto-adjust during lighting alterations on set. Just below these buttons, in the middle section of the channel, are color-coded RGB (red, green, blue) control knobs for monitoring the presence and gain in your black-and-white feeds, helping to counteract intrusive color in captured video.

The lower section of each camera channel is exemplary of the ATEM Camera Control Panel’s professional and comfortable feel and workflow. It’s highlighted by an impressive iris and master black-controlling joystick. Surrounding the joystick are various LED displays and indicators that monitor everything from camera number and on-air status to network and cable connections for each camera, and more. A dedicated call button even allows for easy talkback with operators on set.

CCU operation offers even more efficiency

The ATEM Camera Control Panel’s available CCU controls (camera control unit) ensure speed and efficiency when faster commands are pertinent, putting your crew miles ahead in terms of parameter control. These features include an LCD knob that assigns camera numbers with a red “on-air” indicator, in addition to the dual-function joystick with forward and back iris controls, and a rotating top knob to alter the master black level. Pressing knobs quickly will also allow you to switch between all camera feeds to help more easily match feed colors in real time. However you like to work, the ATEM Camera Control Panel will accommodate.

Flawless Blackmagic and ATEM compatibility

Aside from its stellar controls, one of the best draws of the ATEM Camera Control Panel is its flawless compatibility with other Blackmagic products in your studio. This unit integrates directly with ATEM switchers and hardware control panels via simple Ethernet connection, and supports looped ATEM setups that house additional advanced panels. It also supports feeds from the latest Blackmagic video cameras, including the URSA Broadcast, URSA Mini, and Blackmagic Studio and Micro Studio.
