The RED Digital Cinema V-RAPTOR X 8K VV combines large format 8K acquisition, global shutter capture, high frame rate recording, and REDCODE RAW in a compact DSMC3 cinema camera body. Its 35.4 MP CMOS sensor captures 8192 x 4320 pixels across a 40.96 mm x 21.60 mm imaging area and delivers 17 plus stops of dynamic range. By exposing the complete frame simultaneously, the global shutter helps maintain image geometry during fast subject movement and camera motion while preserving the resolution needed for reframing, stabilization, visual effects, and high resolution finishing.
8K REDCODE RAW and High Frame Rate Capture
V-RAPTOR X records REDCODE RAW at up to 120 fps in 8K 17:9 and up to 150 fps in 8K 2.4:1. Lower resolution formats extend capture to 240 fps at 4K 17:9, 320 fps at 3K 17:9, and 600 fps at 2K 2.4:1. REDCODE HQ, MQ, LQ, and ELQ settings provide flexibility for balancing resolution, frame rate, and media capacity, while qualified CFexpress Type B media supports data rates up to 800 MB/s. Dedicated Apple ProRes recording is also available at resolutions up to 4096 x 2160.
Global Vision and IPP2 Color Workflow
RED Global Vision adds Extended Highlights for scenes that require additional highlight information and Phantom Track for specialized virtual production workflows using frame remapping. RED IPP2 supports 33 x 33 x 33 3D LUTs and CDL import and adjustment, creating a controlled color path from on set monitoring through grading and finishing. REDCODE RAW acquisition also supports multiple VV, Super 35, Super 16, and anamorphic formats.
Locking RF Mount and Professional Monitoring
The integrated locking Canon RF mount supports electronic communication with compatible RF lenses and adapters. Phase detect autofocus with face detection provides additional focus support with compatible lenses. Dual 12G SDI outputs provide independent monitoring paths with 10 bit 4:2:2 output up to 4096 x 2160 at 60p, while the proprietary top accessory port supports compatible RED monitoring and control devices.
Connected DSMC3 Production Platform
Tri level genlock, LTC timecode, RS 232 control, USB C, dual band Wi-Fi, and compatible Ethernet connectivity support synchronized, remotely operated, and networked productions. RED Control enables camera operation and live preview, while supported workflows include Camera to Cloud integration with Frame.io or Amazon S3, high speed remote media offload, and RED Connect for live 8K R3D video over IP or live 4K through SMPTE ST 2110.
Compact Body and Power
The aluminum alloy body measures 5.9 inches long by 4.5 inches wide by 4.3 inches high and weighs approximately 4.03 lb without the body cap and CFexpress card. An integrated V Lock battery interface is optimized for Micro V Lock batteries, while the 6 pin DC input accepts 11 to 17 V DC. This standalone RF Mount configuration provides the core V-RAPTOR X imaging platform for productions that want to build monitoring, lens, power, and rigging systems around their own requirements.
