Providing a basic camera body with EVF, the Sony VENICE 6K Lite Digital Motion Picture Camera Package can be thought of as an introductory shooting package that can grow as you need it to. The camera body features a full-frame sensor with 15+ stops of dynamic range; however, in this configuration it can only use a Super 35 crop for a cinematic feel to your images. To achieve full-frame cinematography it requires an available, but not included, full-frame upgrade license. Likewise, to take advantage of the camera's anamorphic capabilities it also requires an optional anamorphic license.
You can record files as XAVC or ProRes in DCI or UHD 4K, as well as HD, internally to available SxS cards. Raw file capture can be accomplished with optional external recorders such as the AXS-R7. The included EVF features a 0.7" OLED panel with 1920 x 1080 resolution and 200 cd/m2 brightness. A built-in diopter ring enables adjusting the EVF to suit most eyes. The built-in eye sensor controls the anti-burn-in function of the OLED.
Providing a flexible design configuration within a single camera body, the Sony VENICE 6K Digital Motion Picture Camera is meant to provide you with just the amount of camera you need, so you don't have to invest in more than necessary. It features a full-frame CMOS sensor with 15+ stops of dynamic range, but in its basic configuration it windows the sensor to shoot Super 35. The camera comes with a removable PL Mount that supports the Cooke /i Technology lens metadata protocols, allowing you to work with cinema-style glass ranging from vintage to modern. As is, the camera supports DCI and UHD 4K capture, while planned and scheduled firmware updates will enable anamorphic, full-frame, and select frame rates from 1 to 72 fps.
Remove the PL Mount to reveal a Sony E-Mount with a locking outer ring that allows you to mount your lens and then rotate the ring to secure it, creating a strong mounting system that does not require you to rotate your E-Mount lens when mounting it to the camera. Eight integrated and motorized ND filters range from clear to seven stops of ND in one-stop increments. The camera features a built-in assistant-side info screen, along with a smaller basic info display screen on the operator side of the camera. It features dual SxS card slots that allow you to capture XAVC or HD ProRes in-camera.
