The ZR is aimed at filmmakers and creators who are often on the move: It is the lightest all-in-one cinema camera on the market. 1 Whether short clips or the next indie film - look forward to cinematic shots without a lot of accessories.
6K full-frame sensor. Up to 6K/60p recordings directly in the camera: from cinematic 24p to extreme slow motion with 240p. From detailed 6K resolution to razor-sharp, compact 1080p resolution. Flexible frame rates and resolutions make any project possible.
Proven RED-colour science: An exclusive R3D NE codec from RED enables immense freedom in post-production, as ZR video material (R3D NE) and R3D video material recorded by RED cameras can be processed in the same post-production workflow
.
4-inch, tilt and rotatable touchscreen monitor: The large, 1000 nits bright monitor covers the DCI-P3 color space and has a generous 16:10 display format. Monitor 3D LUT display (Look Up Table) for RED Gamma (Log3G10): By using monitor LUTs, the monitor display shows a precise preview of the result after post-production.
Dual-base ISO of 800/6400: when shooting in Log3G10. The sensor's wide dynamic range of 15+ f-stops is maintained at both base ISO settings.
In-camera 32-bit float audio recording: Enables free audio recording and level adjustment in post-production without clipping.
Cinematic video modes and custom RED Picture Controls: 4 creative video modes and 9 custom RED Picture Control configurations provide a cinematic look + feel straight from the camera.
Fast, intelligent autofocus: Fast, accurate, reliable and customizable autofocus ensures razor-sharp images.
Integrated image stabilization: The image stabilizer with sensor shift from Nikon ensures blur-free shots in five axes.
Lightweight and robust: The ZR weighs approx. 540 g (camera only) and is fully sealed against weather influences. Expandable: With the extensive range of accessories from Nikon and partner brands, the equipment can be expanded at any time.
