When I shoot HDR in 12K on the URSA 12K and master in 8K HDR, I get the best possible image quality with maximum flexibility. 1. Sharper, cleaner footage – Downsampling 12K to 8K enhances sharpness, reduces noise, and eliminates artifacts. 2. Better HDR detail – 12-bit HDR preserves more dynamic range, keeping highlights and shadows looking natural. 3. More control in post – I can crop, reframe, and stabilize without losing resolution, giving me more creative options. 4. Optimized for streaming – 8K downsampled from 12K looks better than native 8K, with smoother compression for YouTube, Netflix, and Blu-ray. 5. Future-proof content – By mastering in 8K HDR, my videos stay ahead of the curve as display technology evolves.
This workflow ensures my content looks incredible now and remains top-tier for years to come.
