VariCam 35 4K Broadcast Camcorder
Revolutionising the Way Emotion is Created
The Panasonic Varicam 35 4K broadcast camcorder includes newly-developed super 35mm MOS image sensor and AVC-ULTRA family of video codecs.
Outstanding image handling in multiple formats including 4K, UHD, 2K and HD make it an exceptional tool for high-end filmmaking and commercials as well as live 4K events.
Stunning Image Quality
thanks to the VariCam 35 imager , which would allow you to achieve the cinematic VariCam look.
Equipped with the super 35mm single-chip MOS sensor which offers 4K (4096 x 2160) and UHD (3840 x 2160) resolutions.
Dynamic range of 14+ stops
with wide dynamic range VariCam 35 assures authentic image rendering over the entire image and provides low-noise images without any compromise in picture quality.
Dual native ISO 800/5000
Thanks to native ISO 5000 this camera can achieve noise levels nearly identical to that seen at 800 ISO. This allows camera to record in low natural light without need for artificial light.
Panasonic VariCam LT , more cost effective version of VariCam 35.
