It's able to shoot 10-bit ProRes 4:2:2 as well as H.265 and H.264 codecs so you can compress your footage but maintain the quality.

It can shoot DCI and UHD 4K at 160fps for slow-motion shots as well as full HD at 240fps for super slow-motion recording. The Z cam E2 offers features that top-end brands such as Arri and Red cameras offer such as its own raw codec known as Z Raw and ProRes. If you're new to videography and looking for an all-in-one package, it's certainly a good way of entering the world of film with a camera that can shoot anything, anywhere. Perhaps this is the future of cinema cameras, taking a more hybrid approach rather than needing modular systems where you need additional kit. It's also available in an 8K version for those who want even better resolution although is still able to record in ProRes 422 HQ and H.264 4:2:0 10-bit at various different frame rates (check out the review to see the full list). It's definitely a different type of camera to get used to that will require some learning but for cinematographers who find themselves always using a gimbal or stabilisation rig it's well worth looking into. It's not a light bit of kit weighing almost 5kg but you've got to remember you won't need to add much weight to it like you would with other cinema cameras as it has a gimbal with 4-axis of stabilisation built in. You almost have to think about it in two parts - the body which consist of all the camera controls, screen and gimbal arm and then the DJI Zenmuse X9 camera. The DJI Ronin 4D 6K is unlike any other cinema camera out there.

Should we consider this a full-size or a portable cinema camera? It's designed for portable use, but it's quite a size. Read more: Sony FX6 review (opens in new tab) The one downside is it's still on pre-order so there's no saying when yours might arrive even if you order it today.

If you're looking for something to travel with, the portability of the A7S III would be better but if it's for professional projects close to home we think the Sony FX6 is pretty unbeatable. Even at high ISOs, it can shoot stunning, noise-free 4K, it has incredibly fast video AF and shoots 10-bit internally. It also benefits from the traditional cine camera style handling so you can easily mount the best external monitors or one of the best mics.

It has the same sensor as the Sony A7S III only it's been improved to give a better low-light performance, the ability to shoot DCI 17:9 CRK (rather than just 4K) plus it has an XLR input and built-in filters. After all, unless you're cropping into the footage most TVs won't display it in all its glory anyway.


This latest release from DJI goes to show how varied cine camera designs.ĭespite the Sony FX6 not having 6 or 8K capabilities, we think the stunning 4K it outputs still makes it deserve the top spot. It's the first cinema camera to include 4-axis stabilization which means it will absorb a lot of the movement from walking and running shots and it won't be so necessary to record sliding shots on a dolly. There's also the DJI Ronin 4D (opens in new tab) - an 8K or 6K cinema camera that is basically a flightless drone. For anyone looking for a stills camera that offers excellent video recording features, check out our guides on the best cameras for 4K video and the best cameras for video. While many mirrorless cameras also offer very high-quality video, they are slightly different from cine cameras so they also haven't been included. We've excluded Arri and Red cameras from our list of best cinema cameras due to the fact they sell seriously high-end bits of kit that are a little out of the price range for most commercial filmmakers. And yet, you can get this camera for less that $2000/£2000!

This program is right up with Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere Pro as the three top-tier best video editing software programs of all. Its latest camera, the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K G2 can capture 6K Raw or Apple ProRes, with built-in support for custom user LUTs and Blackmagic's Davinci Resolve Studio software as part of the package. The company that's really blurring the boundaries between consumer and cinema cameras is Blackmagic.
