Professional Camcorder Deck
The Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Studio 4K Pro is a 1 RU file-based video recorder built for broadcast and post-production workflows. It replaces traditional tape decks with digital media while keeping familiar jog/shuttle controls. Studios needing reliable ingest and playout of 10-bit 4:2:2 signals will find it a direct fit.
Capacity and Headroom
Two 2.5-inch SSD slots and two SD card slots allow hot-swappable recording so capture continues automatically when one drive fills. Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2, ProRes, DNxHD, H.264 and H.265 are all supported, with ProRes 4444 playback for fill and key. The SSD bays handle sustained high-bitrate streams; SD cards provide convenient offload but saturate sooner on heavier codecs.
12G-SDI Connectivity
One 12G-SDI input, two 12G-SDI outputs and a loop-through output carry signals up to DCI 4K alongside an HDMI input and output. Ports autodetect SD, HD, 6G-SDI or 12G-SDI formats. A 10G Ethernet port and USB Type-C output add network and direct-drive ingest options. This I/O set decides whether the deck matches your router and monitor chain.

Questions about this item
Will the 12G-SDI input accept an older 6G-SDI camera feed without extra converters?
Yes, the ports autodetect SD, HD, 6G-SDI and 12G-SDI signals and adjust automatically.
How can I confirm the recorder is capturing 10-bit 4:2:2 video correctly after setup?
Use the front speaker for confidence monitoring and check the front-panel status display for codec, resolution and timecode readouts.
Which media do I need to buy separately to start recording on the two 2.5" SSD slots and two SD card slots?
The deck ships without media; purchase 2.5" SSDs for the SSD bays and UHS-II SD cards for the SD slots to enable hot-swap recording.
