About the VideoRecording tops out at 6K 30p in an open-gate 3:2 mode. Open gate captures extra image above and below a widescreen frame, so one recording can be cropped for different deliveries later. Below that sit C4K, 4K, 3.3K and FHD options, which covers everything from cinema-style projects to lighter clips with smaller files. The camera records 4:2:2 10-bit internally, with V-Log available. Ten-bit colour holds up better through grading, and V-Log preserves latitude for adjusting contrast and colour in post. For framing, there is a Cinemascope 2.4:1 mode for a widescreen, film-like look. ProRes RAW support is also listed, which will appeal to editors who want greater flexibility in post-production. | |

About the OpticsStill images come from a 24.2MP full-frame sensor. That resolution leaves room to crop tightly or make large prints. The full-frame format makes it straightforward to separate a subject from its background when you want a shallow look. It also means lenses render their full intended field of view rather than a cropped one. You compose through an electronic viewfinder. Because the finder shows the sensor's live image, exposure and white balance changes appear before you take the shot, which is helpful in changing light. | |
Megapixels ⓘThe higher the number of megapixels, the more detail the cameras sensor can capture. | 24.2 MP050 |
Sensor format ⓘRefers to the most commonly used sensor sizes. | |
Viewfinder type ⓘThe viewfinder type is either electronic or optical. Electronic viewfinders will have a small screen in the viewfinder. Optical viewfinders will use prisms and mirrors to look through the lens. | Electronic |

About the FeaturesThe body is weather sealed, which helps keep dust and moisture out during outdoor shoots. Sealing is not waterproofing, so the camera still needs care in sustained heavy rain. Built-in Wi-Fi lets you move images off the camera without a cable, which is convenient for backing up or sharing work while you are still on location. HEIF support is also listed for this camera. That rounds out the specification with a stills-oriented option alongside its video features. | |
Weather sealing ⓘWeather sealing capabilities will give you more confidence when shooting in unfavourable conditions. | |
Wi-Fi ⓘBuilt-in Wi-Fi allows you to connect your camera and share images wirelessly. | |
