Digital cinema cameras have revolutionized the audiovisual industry in recent decades. At first, they resisted entering the market for large productions, but eventually managed to meet the quality requirements and cover the needs of a conventional film camera. And now there are almost no doubts when choosing a camera to record a project. <\/p>\n\n

Which is the Best Digital Cinema Camera? <\/h2>\n\n

On this occasion, we bring you a TOP 5 of digital cinema cameras<\/strong>. Starting from the most affordable and simple but meeting the minimum requirements of a cinema camera, to the most professional in the market. <\/p>\n\n

Sony ILME-FX3<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Perhaps due to its format and size, you might think it’s a photo and video camera, but it’s not, it’s a cinema camera. With certain limitations of course, but it undoubtedly meets the requirements of any cinema camera. It features an Exmor R CMOS sensor that allows recording at 4K 120fps, a dynamic range of 15 stops, and a 16-bit RAW output. And like the entire Sony family, it has spectacular ISO, in this case a native 800 ISO, reaching up to 102,400 ISO. <\/p>\n\n

It allows recording in Blackmagic RAW or ProRes on external SSD or C-Fast. Its dynamic range is only 13 stops, but sufficient for small projects or documentaries and music videos. It has a dual ISO of 400 – 3200 and an LED screen that occupies almost the entire camera at 5″ with 1500 nits. And let’s not forget its built-in ND filters with densities of 0, 2, 4, and 6 stops. <\/p>\n\n
