ARRI ALEXA 35 4.6K Super 35 Digital Camera

ALEXA 35 is a 4K Super 35 camera that elevates digital cinematography to unprecedented heights.
Impressively low noise and sensitivity settings ranging from EI 160 to EI 6400 make ALEXA 35 a “High ISO” camera. An optional Enhanced Sensitivity Mode can be applied to settings between EI 2560 and EI 6400, producing an even cleaner image in low light.
ARRI Textures provide a new and unique way for cinematographers to exert greater creative control on set. A texture defines the amount and character of grain in an image, as well as the amount of contrast at different levels of detail, perceived by the viewer as sharpness.
ALEXA 35 is the smallest fully featured ARRI production camera ever, packing the features and processing power of a larger ALEXA into a Mini-sized body. Fast and easy operation is assured through usability improvements such as a new left side display and additional user buttons. Temperature resistant, splash and dust proof, and conceived with future hardware and software updates in mind, ALEXA 35 is the best A-camera, B-camera, and drone or gimbal camera on the market, all rolled into one.

This user manual is aimed at everyone involved in using the system and provides directions on how to operate it safely and as intended.
To ensure safe and correct use, all users need to read the ALEXA 35 Operating Manual before using the system for the first time. It contains detailed information on how to use the system safely.
This user manual is an essential part of the product and should be easily accessible and in proximity to the equipment so that users can use it as a reference anytime.
Keep the ALEXA 35 User Manual, the ALEXA 35 Operating Manual and all other instructions belonging to the system in a safe place for future reference and possible subsequent owners.
