Sony VENICE 2 Digital Motion Picture Camera (6K)—Quote on request
Product Details
The 6K VENICE 2 uses the same sensor as the original VENICE, and it has a dual ISO range of 500/2500. The updated camera body allows you to swap the 6K sensor for an 8.6K sensor to gain a higher-base ISO and higher-resolution images, though the 6K sensor allows for higher frame rates. As with the original VENICE, the VENICE 2 comes with a removable PL Mount that supports the Cooke /i Technology lens metadata protocols, allowing you to work with cinema-style glass ranging from vintage to modern. Remove the PL Mount to reveal a Sony E-Mount, to accept native E-mount lenses. Eight integrated and motorized ND filters range from clear to seven stops of ND in one-stop increments. SensorThe VENICE 2 allows you to work in a color space, sensitivity, and resolution that you have become accustomed to, as it uses the same sensor as the original VENICE camera. This allows to seamlessly intercut the footage between the two, making for an obvious A/B camera setup. Plus, the optional 8.6K sensor block (not included) can be swapped into the VENICE 2 in the field, avoiding a trip to a service facility. Internal RecordingFree yourself from an external recorder for raw and high-data-rate recording, as the VENICE 2 is capable of recording directly to AXS cards internally. Featuring two AXS card slots, you can capture X-OCN and 4K ProRes (both 17:9 and 16:9) internally and use relay recording for virtually unlimited recording time. Additionally, the VENICE 2 supports cache recording and has twice the cache memory as the original VENICE camera.

Full-Frame SensorIn full-frame, you can use the full 6048-pixel width of the sensor for widescreen spherical 2.39:1 or large-format scope. A firmware upgrade and license are required for full-frame recording. It also supports Super35 for 17:9 or 16:9 images. Built-In ND FiltersThe servo-controlled 8-step mechanical ND filter mechanism built into the camera chassis offers a massive ND range from Clear (no ND) and 0.3 (1/2 = 1 stop) to 2.4 (1/256 = 8 stops). The servo control also greatly increases VENICE's flexibility when being controlled remotely on drones, cranes, or in underwater housings. Dual-Base ISO SensorThe 6K VENICE features dual-base ISO, which offers Base ISO2500 in addition to Base ISO500. The High Base ISO2500 excels in low-light High Dynamic Range capture, with an exposure latitude from 5+ stops over to 10 stops under 18% Middle Gray, for a total of 15+ stops. No Jello EffectThe high-speed readout of the VENICE 2 sensor minimizes the Jello effect typical with CMOS sensors. PL MountThe VENICE 2 comes with the industry-standard PL lens mount. It is compatible with all Super35 and full-frame PL lenses, spherical and anamorphic. The removable lens mount includes contacts that support Cooke /i Technology. The camera's lens information is recorded as metadata frame by frame. E-MountRemoving the PL Mount exposes the camera's E-Mount, which allows compatibility with E-Mount lenses. This E-Mount is designed with a lever lock that eliminates the need to rotate your lens when mounting, and the lever lock secures the lens in the mount, minimizing play. Rotating of the locking collar means that in most cases, lens support rigs don't need to be removed, which saves time during production. A planned firmware update is required to take full advantage of the E-Mount.
