ARRI<\/a> surprised us yesterday by announcing its new Alexa Mini<\/a> camera, which combines a lightweight and compact format with all the quality that characterizes the company’s cameras.<\/p>\n

Its design<\/h4>\n

Let’s start by mentioning its dimensions; 185mm long, 125mm wide and 140mm high.<\/p>\n

\"Alexa<\/a><\/p>\n

To achieve this robust design within a lightweight camera, ARRI has used highly integrated electronics, a carbon housing and a titanium PL mount that connects directly to the internal sensor mount to ensure a super-stable flange focal length, even when using large lenses.<\/p>\n

The company claims that this camera complements a full Alexa<\/a> kit and eliminates the need to have to use third-party cameras when shooting difficult shots in tight or specialized locations, such as on aerial systems, waterproof housings or stabilizing rigs.<\/p>\n

It is very easy to carry and its symmetrical design allows recording in any orientation. In addition, it has a lot of possible accessories and its interchangeable lens mount can be replaced with any designed for ARRI Amira<\/a>, allowing the use of B4 and EF mounts. <\/p>\n

Internal features<\/h4>\n

The Alexa Mini features a 4:3 sensor that comes with an automatic de-squeeze mode for anamorphic productions. Like the other cameras, it records in ProRes or ARRIRAW, at speeds from 0.75 to 200fps, using CFast 2.0 cards or the Codex<\/a> external recorder, capable of handling up to four streams simultaneously. <\/p>\n

Thanks to its ALEV III sensor, the focus is not only on spatial resolution, but also on other factors such as colorimetry, skin tones or HDR(High Dynamic Range<\/em>). This is the same for outputs in HD, 2K or 4K UHD (highest possible resolution), as well as for native ARRIRAW 2.8K or ProRes 3.2K resolutions. <\/p>\n

Other functionalities<\/h4>\n

This camera can be operated in multiple ways; using the wireless remote control, like a normal camera with the MVF-1 viewfinder, or with a monitor and controlled through the camera body’s button interface.<\/p>\n

A built-in lens motor controller allows the new active lens motors to be connected directly to the PL mount, while ARRI Lens Data System<\/em> (LDS) technology provides accurate metadata.<\/p>\n

It has Wi-Fi connectivity so that iOS or Android devices can use remote control functions, such as motorized internal ND filters, which allow you to quickly change lighting conditions.<\/p>\n

\"arri_alexa_mini\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Alexa Mini is expected to be launched in May, with orders possible as early as March. A prototype of the camera will be shown at the BVE (British Video Expo) on February 24, 25 and 26. <\/p>\n
