The Super 35 sensor has 14 stops of dynamic range and a native ISO of 800. The new 12K sensor has equal amounts of red, green and blue pixels and is optimized for images at multiple resolutions.

Lost Vape was created by an adventurous group of vapers determined to create innovative and exciting ideas. The rest of the camera world will certainly take a while to catch up, and it won’t be extremely practical to shoot 12K footage on a larger scale for quite some time. It’s just super cool to me, though. If you want to shoot 12K footage, you can. The Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod kit is a worthy companion for any new vaper thanks to its ease of use and straight forward screen functionality. I think the unsung hero of this whole equation is the codec and color science that make 12K raw footage possible, when in a lot of ways you wouldn’t expect it to be. I think it’s time we set out on a quest of our own. To find out if it delivers on power, flavour, cloud production and battery life.We must note that when shooting in ProRes, there is no crop in any resolution or compression type unless you put the sensor into windowed mode. Ursa Mini Pro tests Although not designed as a restrictive lung vape it was possible with the airflow wide open, the wet, saturated taste remained. UB Lite L1 0.4ohm Mesh Coil (20-30W) You do this via the touchscreen which is responsive and easy to understand. The menu system is easy to use with obvious tabs along the screen to let you select a group of settings. You just tap and swipe then adjust settings. To help you get your shots in perfect focus and exposed correctly there are displays for histogram, zebra, false colours and peaking. The device comes in an easy to remove slip case, sitting snuggly inside a foam inlay. Squeezed in on the left is a slim rectangular box containing additional items.

All this said, just make sure you configure what you’ll need before you spend any money. It’ll improve what you can get from the tools if they are configured correctly. And don’t forgetI’m not sure what makes a Red or Arri, the cameras of choice in Hollywood, worth tens of thousands more. But as someone who shoots video on a hybrid mirrorless camera, I can see the value in moving up to the Ursa. Six grand is a lot of money. Yet here, with the Ursa, it feels like a bargain. Design and user interface It also generated more noise than the 1.0ohm coil but the inhale was still very smooth and turbulent free. A little more warmth was also evident thanks to the increase in power. One such entrepreneur was Frank Guo. He’s the guy who established the company and responsible for the recent Lost Vape Ursa Quest Multi Kit. Still – we do get more than adequate venting here. Something that’s not always present with integrated batteries. Screen and Button Functionality There’s only a couple of features that stand out for me; the 1200mAh battery and the adjustable airflow which is always welcome.Finally USB-C is now pretty much standard on new gear, and the Mini has that.

Throughout the test period I vaped as 12.5W – between the lowest and highest recommended wattage parameters. The Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit is screaming out to be stood in a vertical position, and not only between vaping but when charging too. The updated electronics push the maximum ISO up a stop to 3,200. That’s nothing compared to modern still cameras, with ISOs in the hundreds of thousands, but it makes the Ursa usable in indoor locations. Importantly, that high ISO comes in handy when shooting HFR footage, which necessitates a faster shutter speed and requires you to compensate by either opening the iris or raising the ISO.I’ll let you into a little secret. I found myself habitually RDL vaping this high resistance coil because the MTL option wasn’t working for me. As a consequence it felt as though I was missing out on a more concentrated flavour experience. Don’t get me wrong, the sweetness of the blueberry was still present and instantly recognisable. It just seemed too saturated on the exhale. The thing about shooting 12K is that there aren’t really any lenses that can even support that kind of resolution. So, if you’re shooting for 12K, you’re going to want the sharpest lenses you can find. I went with Sigma art lenses mostly, and got pretty decent results, for the most part. I have a strong feeling this will begin to change as all cameras start trying to match this resolution. Aside from the fact that you can totally use this camera to shoot in more standard resolution sizes—like 6K or 4K—there are still some arguments to be made for the utility of 12K footage for specific applications. If you’ve ever used any of the other URSA Mini line of cameras, you already know these cameras are amazing.
