SPECIFICATIONS
The RED MONSTRO 8K VV sensor is a full-frame, 35.4 megapixel CMOS sensor with 17+ stops of dynamic range, offering 8192 x 4320 resolution and accommodating full-frame 35mm lenses for a broad, cinematic look. This sensor is also great for shooting with anamorphic lenses giving you more sensor for better results in low light and clear anamorphic images. The sensor supports the REDCODE RAW codec for high-quality image data and can also record Apple ProRes or Avid DNx files simultaneously for proxy workflows.
Key Characteristics
-
Resolution: 8K full-frame (8192 x 4320)
-
Sensor Size: 40.96mm x 21.60mm (full-frame Vistavision)
-
Megapixels: 35.4 Megapixel
-
Dynamic Range: 17+ stops, allowing for detail in both shadows and highlights
-
Maximum Frame Rate: Up to 60 fps at 8K resolution
-
Codec: Primarily REDCODE RAW, with support for Apple ProRes and Avid DNx formats
-
Image Processing: Utilizes RED's IPP2 image processing pipeline for advanced image quality and color accuracy
-
Modularity: A core part of the DSMC2 modular system, allowing for interchangeable lens mounts and other accessories
Benefits
-
Large Format Coverage:
Its full-frame sensor provides a wider field of view and enhanced depth of field compared to Super 35mm sensors, which is ideal for a cinematic look.
-
Flexibility with Lenses:
The large sensor area accommodates full-frame 35mm lenses, and Super 35mm lenses can be used with a windowed capture area for high frame rates. Anamorphic lenses have good results in low light and clear anamorphic images.
-
Versatile Recording Options:
Simultaneously record high-quality REDCODE RAW and proxy files (ProRes or DNx) for faster post-production workflows.
-
High-Speed Performance:
Windowing the sensor allows for significant frame rate increases, enabling high-quality slow-motion footage.
-
Advanced Image Quality:
Features improved dynamic range and shadow detail over its predecessor, the DRAGON sensor, and offers enhanced color accuracy.
