Sony VENICE/CINEHFR

Properties VENICE:

The CineAlta VENICE is the latest flagship by Sony. The camera was especially developed for large productions, where great emphasis is placed on its own cinematic look. It allows the use of anamorphic lenses, which in combination with the VENICE in 4K 4:3 achieve an impressive effect. In addition, it has eight mechanical ND filters, a fast shutter and an impressive depth of field. The large 36 x 24 mm full-frame sensor is particularly suitable for large-format lenses such as the Supreme Prime Series by ZEISS. This allows you to shoot in impressive 6K resolution (6048p) in 3:2, 2.39:1, 1.85:1, 17:9 and 16:9 modes.
