ntroducing the ALEXA LF, a remarkable 4.5K camera now accessible for rent through Camera Kitchen.
At its core, the ARRI ALEXA LF is centered around an expansive large-format 4.5K rendition of the original ALEXA sensor. This dynamic camera delivers native 4K recording within three distinct sensor modes: LF Open Gate, LF 16:9, and LF 2.39:1. The ALEXA LF offers the flexibility of recording in either ARRIRAW or ProRes formats, all while harmoniously blending large-format resolution with an optimal pixel size. This fusion culminates in exceptional image quality, characterized by vibrant details, lifelike skin tones, and a seamlessly enchanting bokeh effect.
Engineered with precision, the ALEXA LF is fortified with ARRI’s proprietary LPL lens mount, meticulously optimized for the demands of large-format capture. The ALEXA LF's compatibility encompasses all PL-mount lenses via a PL-to-LPL adapter, featuring a wider diameter and shorter flange focal depth than the original ARRI PL mount. This innovative design element yields lenses that are both compact and lightweight, revolutionizing the landscape of large-format optics.
Diversity is key within the ALEXA LF's recording capabilities. It offers an array of recording formats spanning ARRIRAW and ProRes, granting the freedom to record onto 1 or 2TB SXR capture drives, or SxS PRO 256GB cards. With a base sensitivity of EI 800, 16-bit processing prowess, and a dynamic range surpassing 14 stops, your footage is poised for future compatibility with HDR displays. Frame rates are equally impressive, supporting speeds up to 150 fps, facilitating buttery-smooth slow motion and fostering optimal clarity for HFR (High Frame Rate) projects.
Embedded within the ALEXA LF is the wireless connectivity of the ALEXA SXT W, seamlessly integrating Wi-Fi capabilities and compatibility with ARRI ECS lens/camera control systems. This basic kit is furnished with a WVR-1 receiver, facilitating wireless video transmission with a reach extending up to 2000 feet. The ALEXA LF's versatility is elevated by an internal filter holder, designed to accommodate an array of Large Format Full Spectrum Neutral Density (LF FSND) filters, each available separately. Further enriching the ALEXA LF experience, existing ARRI Look files and workflows are seamlessly adaptable. Clip playback is available in both ARRIRAW and ProRes, and the camera boasts a 2-channel, 5-pin XLR audio input.
Completing this comprehensive ALEXA LF set are essential components such as SXR and SxS media adapters, the EVF-1 electronic viewfinder complemented by a VMB-3 mounting bracket and cable, the CCH-1 center carrying handle, and an SD card tailored for storing/loading LUTs, SUPs, and more.
