I do a lot of color grading work, and one cannot do without this device. It definitely is worth the money.

I encountered issues with the new product I received. Despite using the correct cables (Thunderbolt) and connecting them to the Thunderbolt USB-C ports on my Mac, the product failed to work as expected. Nothing was displayed on my monitor.

This is a wonderful addition to my editing setup, the 4K is crisp and so much better for critical viewing.

I upgraded to the 4K Mini from an Extreme capture card and I'm glad I did.

Great integrator for live-streaming.

This unit has worked flawlessly to integrate my Canon 5D and Sennheiser MK4 for live-streaming. The Blackmagic Ultrastudio 4K is connected to my 2013 iMac through a Blackmagic eGPU. The combination has worked flawlessly. I have been able to provide weekly messages to my friends and relatives about the change Jesus has brought in me as he healed me from Covid.
