Blackmagic Design Drops Price on Hyperdeck Studio 12G to $1,495

Blackmagic Design today announced a new low price for the popular HyperDeck Studio 12G of only $1,495. HyperDeck Studio 12G is the world’s most advanced solid state disk broadcast deck, featuring VTR style controls with 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 connections for recording all formats up to high frame rate Ultra HD over a single cable.

Since Blackmagic Design introduced 12G-SDI, customers have been adopting it as the new standard for Ultra HD. Multi rate 12G-SDI is compatible with all existing SD, HD and Ultra HD formats and equipment, up to high frame rate 2160p60, all over a single SDI cable. Customers have been replacing older quad link equipment with new 12G-SDI equipment and, as adoption has increased, manufacturing and component costs for products featuring 12G-SDI have dropped. This benefit, combined with recent manufacturing enhancements at Blackmagic Design, has made it possible to now reduce the price of HyperDeck Studio 12G to only $1,495.

HyperDeck Studio 12G gives customers an advanced technology replacement for broadcast decks that were limited to HD only. Customers get the same functionality and control of a traditional broadcast deck but with the advantage of recording directly to 10-bit 4:2:2 uncompressed files for SD and HD, or to broadcast quality Apple ProRes and DNxHD files for SD, HD and Ultra HD.

HyperDeck Studio 12G is the only deck that’s future proof and ready for every kind of production. Customers can use HyperDeck Studio 12G with all of their existing SD and HD equipment today, with the confidence of knowing that it will automatically switch to high frame rate Ultra HD 2160p60 when they need it.
