Controlling your BMPCC settings is a breeze with the Middle Things APC Camera Controller. Whether you use the ATEM Software Control or the ATEM Camera Control Panel, you can remotely adjust your BMPCC settings. This ensures a smooth and consistent live production workflow with minimal changes. The APC lets you manage the same settings as the URSA Mini Pro or URSA Broadcast, such as Shutter, Iris, WB, Gain, primary color correction, and Zoom. Check the compatibility section for the full list. The BMPCC 4K/6K lacks an SDI input connector, but the LPC converts the SDI program feed from the switcher into a Bluetooth signal that the BMPCC can read. The LPC only needs a 12V DC connection and has an SDI loop out port for daisy - chaining another Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera. Remember, you still need to send the pocket HDMI signal to the switcher. Key features include remote adjustment, minimal workflow disruptions, extensive setting control, SDI - to - Bluetooth conversion, and easy power requirements. In the box, you'll find 1x APC, 1x 12V Power Supply, 1x Bluetooth Antenna, and optionally 1x 3m/9.8Feet Ronin 4Pin to 3Pin Control Cable (requires DJI Focus Wheel). The shipping weight is 0.6kg with dimensions 24x16x11cm.
Using the Middle Things APC Camera Controller is simple. First, connect the 12V power supply to the LPC so it can start working. If you want to daisy - chain another Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, use the SDI loop out port. Then, decide whether you'll use the ATEM Software Control or the ATEM Camera Control Panel to remotely adjust your BMPCC settings. You can manage various settings like Shutter, Iris, WB, Gain, and more. Remember, even though the LPC converts the SDI feed to Bluetooth for the BMPCC 4K/6K, you still have to send the pocket HDMI signal to the switcher. When it comes to maintenance, keep the controller in a dry and clean place. Check the power supply regularly to make sure it's working properly. If you're using the optional Ronin control cable, ensure it's correctly connected to the DJI Focus Wheel. That's all you need to know to get the most out of your camera controller.
