ARRI

The new ALEXA Mini LF is a perfect match to the original ALEXA LF.  Using the same sensor technology in a new compact form factor, the Mini LF provides filmmakers with up to 40fps recording in 4.5K Open Gate, or 60fps recording in 16:9 UHD and 2.39:1 Scope 4.5K.  The Mini LF also features a number of improvements over the original ALEXA Mini, including additional I/O ports, a Compact Capture Drive Bay, and the new MVF-2 Viewfinder.

Offers in-camera recording of ProRes 4K UHD (3840 x 2160 pixels) and ProRes 4K Cine (4096 x 2637 pixels). Like its XT predecessor, the ALEXA SXT retains the same Open Gate, 4:3 and 16:9 sensor modes, which can be recorded in ARRIRAW or ProRes. The SXT also introduces the new sensor mode, 6:5. ALEXA SXT cameras include three fully independent HD-SDI outputs.

SONY

Sony has officially released the Venice Rialto Extension System and we have just received the first units in the United States. The Rialto allows the front image block from the Sony Venice to be relocated to a much smaller housing, which is then tethered to the camera body using a 9-foot cable. This can be extended further using an additional 9-foot cable for a total of 18-feet. This allows the Venice to be used in much tighter spaces than previously capable with the normal body size.

Rental Includes:

  • The Camera Body Adapter w/ serial connection
  • The Image Block Adapter w/ 9-foot cable
  • The 9-foot extension cable

Key Features:

  • Allows the Sony Venice to be broken into two pieces so that the Image Block and Lens may be placed in tighter spaces or further from the body of the camera.
  • Offers 9 to 18 feet of extension range from the Image Block to the Camera Body
  • The Image Block Housing offers a power pass through of 12V or 24V as well as an HD-SDI Output
  • Allows full use of the Sony Venice and its features.

Weighing just under six pounds (body-only), VariCam LT is ideal for handheld, Steadicam, jib, crane, gimbal and drone shooting applications, as well as all types of cinéma vérité filmmaking. The VariCam LT has a compact and lightweight magnesium body and offers same picture quality specifications as the larger VariCam 35 cinema camera.

The super 35mm image sensor, which is the same imager as VariCam 35, features wide dynamic range, an expansive color gamut, and high sensitivity for 4K image acquisition. 

The VariCam LT offers a host of new features including an EF lens mount, hot swappable batteries, IR shooting capability, a 23.98 PsF output, cinema-style file naming, and scene files.

One new feature that has been added to the VariCam LT is the EF lens*1 mount which offers a wide array of lens choices. The EF mount*1 can be removed by an end user and replaced with a PL mount (optional). This allows for even greater versatility in lens selection when shooting with the VariCam LT.

Lenses

Full Frame Spherical Lenses

Angenieux’s new Optimo Primes offer filmmakers small lightweight full frame cinema primes made specifically to match Angenieux’s line of cinema zooms. The Optimo Primes feature a unique design that allows the iris assembly, an internal glass element, and a rear filter to be swapped out, providing filmmakers with a versatile tool for creating dynamic images. The lenses are fast ranging from T1.8 for most focal lengths to T2 and T2.2 for the 18mm and 200mm respectively. Each lens features Cooke i/Data and ARRI LDS for lens metadata capture.

Leitz has created a new set of large format prime lenses.  The Leitz Primes provide an image circle large enough to cover Vistavision and offer a super fast aperture of T1.8 until 180mm.  They’re uniformly sized and designed for ease of use with evenly spaced focus and iris gears with a robust design.  They also feature a rear net holder and offer threading from front filter attachment (M112x1.5mm filters).

The MasterBuilt Prime lenses were designed to produce images with vintage style, offering gradual focus fall off with great center sharpness.  Large format compatible, the lenses offer ultra-fast T1.4 apertures with evenly spaced focus and iris gearing in each lens.

Designed through a collaboration between Bradford Young, ASC and Neil Fanthom, the Blackwing7’s offer full frame/large format coverage and feature a robust design coupled with unique optical characteristics and customization options.  Three tuning options are available for the Blackwing7 lenses: A standard “S” tuning matching more traditional 20th century lenses. A medium “T” tuning providing a smoother image with slightly more flaring.  Finally there is an extreme “X” tuning option which offers a softer look with more extreme halation and aberration during flaring.

ZEISS engineered the Supreme Prime’s with consistency in mind. Each lens is color matched and features a lightweight ergonomic design produced with modern film sets in mind. With a T-Stop of 1.5 the Supreme Primes are remarkably fast as well. All lenses in the family are designed to cover the full format camera sensors of today.

These Zero Optik Nikkor Primes are based on vintage full frame Nikon still photography lenses, but have been rehoused with cinema style gearing on the iris and focus for use on todays modern film sets.
