$40K

 

Oh man. I had hoped that they had lowered the price more. It will be a way tougher path to go now to convince producers to go for this camera.

Lets see Alexa look and quality AND 200FPS recording to the much less expensive CFast cards? This camera is a winner

I own a Sony F5/F55. With a 4K raw recorder. It shoots 240fps in 2K Its great in 4K. Shoots also xavchd or Mpg HD as lowres ( which is standard def so very nice already ) Small, Light, Oled viewer, user friendly and costs a hell of a lot less then the arri. I know, apples and orange, but producers love that kind of things. It gets really adapted overhere. I was hoping the New arri would have been in that price range.

I saw the Amira again yesterday, beautiful, stripped down body only, it is around 10lbs.

 

It has a dovetail top and bottom to attach an ARRI supplied cheese plate. Super fast turnaround.

 

Greg Bubb @ XCS now has the power cables available for the Amira. The camera will be on shows this summer as delivery begins next month...

The connector looks to be an FGJ.2B.308? any confirmation on what size the connector is (either 2B or 3B) or the pin out?

 

If it is 3B it would be the same connector as the F65/35/23, which makes me think it is the 2B size.

We were going to use the prototype on a project the other month, so ARRI Germany passed the specs on to Burbank for me. No guarantees it hasn't changed since the prototype, but as of Jan 30th it was an FGJ.2B.308.CYMD72Z.

 

Pins 2,3,4 were GND and 6,7,8 +

Pins 1 and 5 are not used.

 

They think I had the first power cables in the US, they didn't even have an XLR version for a block battery!
