Blackmagic Design BMD-CINEURSAMWCENGK Topside ENG Kit / Body Armor / Rugged Top Handle / Rotating Light Mount / Microphone Mount

Description

The URSA Broadcast ENG Kit is a camera accessory package designed to convert a URSA Broadcast camera into a run-and-gun ENG-style configuration. It provides a protective body armor for the camera top while preserving thermal airflow and shielding vents from dust and moisture. The kit is built to support rapid handheld operation and add common ENG accessories.

Included components provide a rugged open-ended top handle that adds multiple 3/8″-16 accessory threads for mounting monitors, wireless systems, or grips. A rotating light mount lets you position an LED panel quickly to illuminate moving scenes, and a dedicated microphone mount accepts shotgun mics for improved on-camera audio capture. A side panel cradle accepts small accessories such as portable drives, wireless transmitters, or smartphones used for streaming.

Thermal design retains airflow over the camera top while protecting vent openings from environmental contamination, maintaining camera cooling under demanding operating conditions. Mounting thread options follow industry standard 3/8″-16 spacing to support a broad range of professional accessories. The handle and mounts are engineered for durability and repeated field use.

Connectivity and compatibility are focused on physical mounting and accessory integration rather than signal interfaces – the handle and mounts accept industry-standard screw threads and shoe-style mounts where applicable. The cradle supports compact media devices and wireless units commonly used in ENG workflows. The design is neutral regarding camera I/O so it integrates with URSA Broadcast camera bodies without altering signal paths.

Typical use cases include news gathering, ENG shoots, event coverage, and solo operator run-and-gun productions where fast deployment and accessory mounting flexibility are required. The kit supports quick pickup shots, on-the-move lighting adjustments, and cleaner audio capture via a mounted shotgun microphone. It is suitable for field crews who need a compact accessory solution that reduces setup time.

Installation is straightforward and intended for camera operators and rigging technicians; the handle secures to the camera topside while the light mount and microphone mount fasten using the 3/8″-16 threads. The materials and construction prioritize robustness for repeated attachment and removal. Overall, the ENG kit adds practical mounting options and environmental protection to the URSA Broadcast camera top while preserving cooling performance.
