Align the dot on your lens with the dot on the camera mount. Many lenses have a visual
indicator, for example a blue, red or white dot.

To remove the lens, hold down the locking button, rotate the lens clockwise until its dot
or indicator reaches the 2 o'clock position, and gently remove.
NOTE
Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro F mount features a mechanical iris adjuster. To use
older style F mount lenses with built in focus rings with this mount, your lens aperture
will need to be set and locked to its smallest setting, such as f/22. For more information
on adjusting aperture with Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro F mount's manual iris adjuster,
see the section 'Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro F Mount' in this manual.
Powering your Camera
Now that you've attached a lens, you will need to supply power. The quickest way to power
your camera is to connect external power using the supplied AC to 12V DC adapter.
To plug in external power:
1
Connect the AC to 12V DC adapter plug to your mains power socket.
2
Connect the AC to 12V DC adapter's 4 pin XLR connector to the 12-20V DC power
connector on the camera.
If you have both external and battery power connected, only external power will be used. If you
remove external power while a charged battery is connected, your camera will switch to battery
power without interruption.
Use the supplied AC to 12V DC adapter to power your Blackmagic URSA Mini
