RED DIGITAL CINEMA V-RAPTOR XL Overview

The V-mount V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 Camera from RED DIGITAL CINEMA offers up to 8K multiformat video capture, REDCODE Raw, Apple ProRes, and proxy recording, and 1080p live preview streaming in a streamlined form featuring an array of interfaces suitable for high-end crew use. This S35 version of the V-RAPTOR incorporates an interchangeable ARRI PL lens mount, internal ND filters, GbE (Gigabit Ethernet), and a built-in Ambient Lockit timecode/genlock unit.

The combination of Super35 capture, lens mount versatility, and the all-in-one DSMC3 form enables the V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 to fit seamlessly into your wildlife and broadcast projects or other shoots involving lots of handheld work and multiple locations. Its industry-standard interface incorporates three 12G/6G/3G-SDI outputs, both 12 and 24V power outputs, timecode and genlock ports, and an integrated V-mount battery plate.

35.4MP CMOS S35 Sensor

• The V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35's Super35mm 35.4 MP CMOS sensor provides a practical alternative to full-frame capture that is particularly suitable for in-the-field productions while still offering the high resolution and shallow depth of field beloved by cine-style shooters.
• 16.5+ stops of dynamic range give the V-RAPTOR 8K XL S35 the ability to capture stunning images in any environment you explore.

Interchangeable Lens Mount/Autofocus Options

• Includes an ARRI PL lens mount which can be swapped for a separately available Canon EF mount, enabling you to make use of a large variety of lenses.
• Offers on-sensor enhanced phase-detect autofocus and in-camera AI processing for select EF lenses with face detection and object tracking coming in future updates.

Applications

The streamlined form, interchangeable lens mounts, and the classic Super35 look makes the V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 ideal for wildlife, broadcast, and cine-style productions.

Built-In Pro Interfaces

• Designed for professional crew use with integrated auxiliary power and mounting points for attaching multiple high-end camera accessories.
• Built-in Ambient Lockit mode for wireless genlock and timecode syncing.
• Multiple video outputs, including 12G/6G/3G-SDI.

Internal ND Filters

• Motorized clear and 2 to 7-stop electronic ND filters with 1/3, 1/4, and 1-stop increments provide precision exposure control.
• The internal NDs are easily controlled via the side push buttons or wirelessly using the iOS/Android RED Control app.

Side Control Panel

• Conveniently located on the assistant's side, an easy-to-navigate, 2.4" LCD panel provides comprehensive control, including status updates, in-camera format selection, and customizable buttons.
• The V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35's compact and durable DSMC3 form features micro-V battery compatibility, several monitor options, CFexpress card capture, and a modular design that, when paired with a compact Super35 lens, creates a portable, ergonomic form.

Note: The LCD panel is for camera control only; it does not provide preview video.

Streamlined Form with Dual-Voltage Battery Support

• The built-in interfaces and integrated OLED display lend the V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 camera rig a streamlined, accessible form.
• An integrated V-mount battery plate supports 24 to 34V batteries with multiple auxiliary power outputs and standard 12 to 16V batteries.

Advanced Cooling

• The V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35's advanced cooling system uses dedicated fans to separately reduce the temperature of auxiliary power components and camera components while a heat exchanger maintains a precise sensor temperature.
• Together, these cooling functions reduce noise while recording, create a more robust system, and produce less black shading.

RED Control App

• Use the iOS and Android-compatible RED Control or RED Control Pro app for remote or tethered camera access.
• Access is available via Wi-Fi and the USB-C and Ethernet interfaces.
