picThe Red One camera goes beyond just being innovative.


It’s revolutionary in its ability to match unrivalled high-definition picture quality and resolution with a fast, tape-less workflow, flexibility and superb value for money. Recording at up to 4 times the resolution of comparable high-definition (HD) camera technology, the Red One camera offers compelling picture quality at a highly affordable cost.

With a 35mm motion-picture sized imaging sensor and utilizing PL mount prime and zoom lenses, it offers the ability to create a high-end ‘film’ look– think optically crisp, vivid colour and tonally rich images, with a cinema style ‘depth of field’ and exposure latitude, unknown in conventional video cameras. Putting it perhaps more simply, it produces pictures that just look stunning.

picThe EX3 takes low-cost, high definition production one step further from existing lightweight HD camcorders, such as the Z1 and EX1.


Featuring an 1/2'' interchangeable lense mount, the EX3 permits the use of a range of high-end broadcast lenses, ranging from wide-angle zooms to large ‘box’ type lenses – it’s no longer limited by the use of a fixed, built in lenses. What’s more, it records onto solid-state media in XDCAM format, providing the benefits of faster post-production workflows and offering far-superior picture quality than the HDV format.
