Panasonic VariCam 35

VariCam 35's new sensor captures 14+ stops of latitude, capturing high-contrast and wide dynamic range. The camera offers a broad range of codecs and formats, including Panasonic’s AVC-ULTRA family of advanced codecs, Apple ProRes, and 3.5-Mbps proxy recordings.

VariCam 35 incorporates a modular design whereby the 4K camera head is separate from but dockable to the common, shared recording module (AU-VREC1G). This allows users to switch between Super 35mm and VariCam HS ⅔" camera heads to best suit their creative needs.

14+ stops of latitude lets you record and display all of the highlights as well as all of the shadows.

Dual Native ISO of 800/5000
The VariCam 35 has two native ISO settings: 800 and 5000. This means the VariCam 35 achieves very high sensitivity while maintaining a low noise level at 5000 ISO. The noise level at 5000 ISO is nearly identical to that seen at 800 ISO. In order to achieve this function, two dedicated analog circuits are implemented on each pixel of the imager of the VariCam 35 for two native ISO before gain processing. This allows the camera to achieve much higher sensitivity without increased noise. Normally noise is introduced in the gain process of rating ISO in digital cameras. This functionality is revolutionary for low light scene shooting. Especially this ISO 5000 enables the camera to capture with very low available light maintaining a realistic mood.
