ARRI ALEXA XT CAMERA FEATURES:
- Record it all: Open Gate sensor mode. Using the full ARRI ALEXA sensor area, Open Gate mode is great for VFX shows, up-sampling to 4K, image repositioning, resizing, rotating or stabilizing. While some use it as their main recording format, others shoot in 16:9 or 4:3 and only certain scenes in Open Gate mode.
- True anamorphic with 4:3 sensor mode. Each ARRI ALEXA XT camera is equipped with an Open Gate sensor with the same size and shape as a Super 35mm film frame, which gives filming with anamorphic lenses the most effective use. The 4:3 sensor mode is crucial for delivering a cinematic widescreen look that emulates vintage CinemaScope films, this cinematographic essence has been really appreciated by cinematographers, by image esthetics professionals, and viewers. In ARRI ALEXA XT cameras, the de-squeeze license is included, which is convenient for the viewing of anamorphic images.
- Powerful and Unique ProRes & DNxHD Options. It is also possible to capture ProRes or DNxHD in-camera as an alternative to ARRI RAW. ARRI ALEXA XT cameras provide two unique ProRes recording features: ProRes 4444 XQ (the highest quality ProRes codec), and ProRes 3.2K: the ideal recording resolution for an up-sample to 4K UHD or for extra room to resize, reframe, rotate or stabilize a 2K or HD image. Additionally, the XR Capture Drives allow ProRes 4444 that can be recorded for a total time of 107 minutes (at 24fps) and can be recorded as fast as 120fps, this offers significantly longer recording times and faster speeds.
