Kinefinity MAVO Edge 8K Overview

Illuminate the big screen in mesmerizing detail and color depth with the MAVO Edge 8K from Kinefinity, a carbon fiber full-frame cinema camera capable of industry-leading ProRes 4444 XQ internal recording. Capture 45-megapixel images at 45 fps to maximize resolution or freeze time with 2K/280 fps slow motion. Dual native ISO enables you to shape its 14 stops of dynamic range around either the highlights or lowlights, and its proprietary color science is ready for your 3D LUT.

The rolling shutter scans the sensor in only 12 ms, protecting even the quickest motions from distortion. Choose the oversampled 4K setting to preserve the framing and depth of field of a given lens or digitally crop to boost its magnification. A broad selection of glass is at your disposal using the manufacturer's lens adapters (available separately). The MAVO Edge 8K features a full complement of connections and power options for optimal integration with professional equipment and workflows.

Spectacular 8K Sensor
Shooting open gate in 3:2, you'll utilize the full 8192 x 5288, 44.7-megapixel sensor for outstanding detail. Cropping to 8K 16:9 will allow you to overcrank up to 70 fps. For breathtaking slow motion, 2K/280 fps opens the door for incredible macro shots, flames that dance under a chef's pan, or wildlife documentary images.
Image Quality
The MAVO 8K Edge's in-camera recording of ProRes 4444 XQ enables maximum flexibility in color grading. KineLOG3, its proprietary color science, is primed for applying a 3D LUT to attain a specific aesthetic.
Dual Native ISO
In darker scenes, the cleanest blacks may well come from the lower end of the 2560 high base ISO. When shooting a waterfall's mist or sculptural clouds, consider using the higher ISOs in the 640 low base to attain the maximum dynamic range in the highlights.
Electronic ND Filter
The motorized e-ND enables precise control over the exposure without affecting the depth of field or motion smoothness in your footage. Continuous tuning of the density from 0.6 to 2.1 translates to the ability to make detailed reductions in exposure between 2 and 7 stops. Color adjustments are automatically applied to the footage to compensate for the subtle spectrum shift caused by the e-ND.
Lens Mount
The proprietary KineMOUNT is designed to be used with a wide range of adapters (available separately). Choose from a wide selection of lenses with these PL, LPL, active EF, and passive E mount adapters.
Power
This body accepts plenty of power options, with mounts for V-mount or BP-U batteries, as well as a DC input and a baseplate option for UPS power from two NP-F550 via the KineKIT for MAVO Edge (available separately).
Wireless and Remote Interfaces
Control the camera remotely from the Kinefinity App, accessible via local Wi-Fi or the RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port. Stream to the web with its built-in 5G connectivity.
Monitoring and Connectivity
Utilize the camera's extensive connectivity for uncompromising synchronization, control, audio integration, storage, and more.

is it possible to use sony E mount lenses on kinefinity cameras?
Asked by: Vladimir
Yes you can use E-mount lenses but electronic data can not be transferred with the current mount adapter nor can lenses dependent on electronics to operate be utilized fully. You simply wont have AF or aperture control unless using a fully manual lens.

Will the MAVO Edge 8K receive CinemaDNG codec support for Uncompressed RAW like the 6K?

Will it have Pro Ress Raw License compatibility?

Will it have Pro Ress Raw License compatibility?
Asked by: Luis Joan
Kinefinity has already announced that uncompressed Cinema DNG will be the RAW codec for now. You have all varieties of ProRes 4444(XQ) which is 12-bit and 422(HQ/LT) which is 10-bit on board that can be recorded internally for all supported resolutions. Either will edit rather easily on most modern computers and ProRes 422 doesnt take up nearly as much drive space. If you require internally compressed RAW the only cameras that have it are RED and Canon currently. BRAW from BMD offers a RAW-like experience but technically isnt true RAW as its partially processed in camera. Theres no way to currently get RAW externally on Kinefinity either. The cameras require their own monitor and the SDI connections are 3G. Im not sure they provide enough bandwidth to push a ProRes Raw strata stream.

The Kinefinity MAVO Edge 8K Digital Cinema Camera comes with 1 year warranty from the factory. Anything that is not a direct result of the user error should be covered.
