This update also adds Blackmagic RAW stills capture to capture 80MP reference frames for color grading and continuity easily. Blackmagic Camera 7.0 adds support for the Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K broadcast lens connector to power and control cine-servo zoom lenses.

For the Blackmagic URSA Viewfinder, this update supports new 12K LUTs and 12K exposure metering to display false color and zebras correctly and ensure compatibility with Blackmagic Generation 5 Color Science.
