Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Recorder 3G Capture Device Bundle with Thunderbolt 3 (40 Gbps) USB-C Cable (100W, 0.5m) and 6-Inch Fastening Cable Ties (10-Pack) (3 Items)

I needed this for capturing a love event. I was supplied a live feed from the master control board via SDI which I ran through this device and into my machine pro. I had a bit of trouble getting it up and running at first. This is not plug and play. You will want to get this up and running before you need to use it to make sure it works properly.The instructions from BM are not great and I don't think they've been updated. They're tricky to find on their website and I had better luck googling or looking on YouTube. Once I got it going, it was smooth sailing. It worked well for my needs and I was thankful it was relatively inexpensive.

Ideal para streamer que necesitan una buena calidad con cámaras mirrorless y con conexión hdmi

I didn't know this before buying the UltraStudio Recorder 3G, but you need a legit Thunderbolt cable for this to work properly. Now it makes a lot of sense that the cable is included in this bundle. Kudos to the seller!As for the UltraStudio Recorder 3G, I used it to capture analog tapes, which you might think is an overkill for such format, but it was the only way to get lossless video at a reasonable price. It worked out great and is definitely worth it compared to cheap capture cards.

This is a USB-C (USB 3.0) device only, will not work with USB 2.0, due to bandwidth/throughput limitations of older USB standards. But when properly connected, it reliably provides a clean capture.

The capture device didn't work. I had a really bad time getting it to recognize any video source. I tried video cameras and gaming consoles, but nothing worked.

I was advised to use this caputure card for the sdi ouput of my new panasonic x2 camera and it works great and you have to make sure you upload the software/driver to be able to use it and for it to show up in the camera section of the live streaming software that you use and make sure your fps match up with the fps on your camera so the video doesnt freeze

This is the ONLY right way to connect a video camera using SDI or HDMI to a newer Mac, especially when you consider the price and ease of use! This has to be one of the most elegant solutions for video capture. If you are doing live video, recording video, AV presentations for church, community events, etc., this really is the way to go!

Great product at a great price. The cable that it comes with does not have the little lightning bolt symbol to indicate a TB cable. It would not work for me initially, then after buying an apple thunderbolt cable ( $40 BLEH) it works perfectly. No fault to Blackmagic, but make sure you're using a TB cable
