Review on DeckLink 8K Pro Cinema Capture Card by Blackmagic Design by Marcos Oner

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doesn't do what it says on the tin

Too bad this card doesn't work as advertised. The product page states that it can run stereoscopic workflows up to 2160p60, when in fact it can only work up to 1080p30 (confirmed by the support team). A real shame as the card is inexpensive but not as good as the discontinued 4K Pro card which was cheaper, used fewer PCIe lanes and had less heat dissipation. Also a word of warning: 8K support is unidirectional. So if you want to use an 8K in-out workflow, you'll need two cards.

Pros
  • Works in all SD, HD, Ultra HD, 4K and 8K DCI frame sizes
Cons
  • Not bad but...
