The RED Digital Cinema has officially introduced a new cinema camera called RED Rhino V-Raptor 8K S35. It is a new version of the flagship RED V-Raptor DSMC3 cinema camera with a new sensor. This 8K camera comes with a slightly smaller sensor than the RED Komodo while offering more resolution.
The RED Rhino V-Raptor 8K S35 Cinema Camera comes with a 26.21mm x 13.82mm S35 8K CMOS sensor with a resolution of 35.4 megapixels. The sensor covers most of the S35 lenses, unlike traditional RED sensors.
The latest camera can record 8K video at 120 fps. The camera comes in a special “Rhino Grey” version from the Wildlife Society of Filmmakers, part of which goes to various wildlife charities.
