Key Features:

5K Open Gate and Internal RAW Recording

Shoot in 5K Open Gate mode and take advantage of internal RAW recording and support for professional codecs. Capture maximum image information for flexible post-production and work with anamorphic lenses.

Over 15 EV of dynamic range

The new 16.6-megapixel full-frame sensor, combined with the BIONZ XR2 processor, delivers over 15 EV of dynamic range. The result is natural transitions, preserved detail in highlights and shadows, and clear images even in low light.

4K at up to 240 fps with minimal rolling shutter

Capture fast-paced action in 4K at up to 240 fps, and in the future, also in 5K at 120 fps via a firmware update. The sensor’s higher readout speed significantly reduces rolling shutter and ensures more accurate motion rendering.

Professional autofocus for video

Enhanced autofocus reliably tracks subjects even in challenging lighting conditions. The camera maintains precise focus even during high-speed recording, making it ideal for independent creators and professional film crews alike.

Modular Design and Top-Notch Ergonomics

The detachable electronic viewfinder and large, four-axis tilting LCD monitor allow you to customize the camera to any shooting style—from gimbal work to large-scale production rigs.

Timecode and 32-bit audio recording

Dedicated timecode facilitates synchronization of multiple cameras, while 32-bit floating-point audio recording via the XLR handle provides maximum headroom for audio recording without the risk of clipping.

Ready for modern production

A new high-capacity battery, more stable Wi-Fi, two USB-C ports, and support for 4K 60p live streaming enable reliable operation both in the studio and on location.
