Panasonic AU-EVA1 5.7K Super 35mm Cinema Camera
The Panasonic AU-EVA1 is a feature rich cinema camera for content creators, cinematographers, and filmmakers that know no bounds to their creativity. The camera features a Super 35 (24.60 mm x 12.97 mm) sensor that captures 5.7K resolution.
5.7K Sensor and 4K/60p Recording
With an active resolution of 5720 x 3016, the Panasonic EVA1 delivers more than 17.25 million photo sites, nearly double the 8.8 million for 4K DCI (4096 x 2160). By starting at a higher native resolution, the 5.7K sensor yields a higher resolving image when down-sampled to 4K, UHD, 2K, or even 720p. Additionally, the increased colour information results in a finer, more accurate finished image.
V-Log/V-Gamut
The camera has the incredible ability to capture accurate colours and rich skin-tones is a must for any filmmaker. EVA1 imports the renowned colourimetry of the VariCam lineup of cinema cameras.Â
It contains V-Log/V-Gamut capture to deliver high dynamic range and broad colours. V-Log delivers a very flat image while maintaining all of the colour information within the image. This means there’s a greater level of play when the images are put through post-production.
The Super 35 mm sensor achieves a wide colour gamut known as V-Gamut, EVA1’s optimal colour space that’s wider than BT.2020. V-Log has log curve characteristics reminiscent of negative film, while V-Gamut delivers a colour space even larger than film.
Dual Native ISO
The EVA1 also supports Panasonic’s unique dual-native ISO sensitivity first introduced with the flagship VariCam line-up. It utilizes a process that allows the sensor to be read in a fundamentally different way, extracting more information without degrading the image.
The camera can switch from a standard sensitivity to a high sensitivity with almost no increase in noise. Dual Native ISO gives creators a greater variety of artistic choices and the ability to use less light on set. The EVA1’s Dual Native ISOs are 800 and 2500, which allow cinematographers to shoot in almost any lighting environment.
IR Cinematography
The Panasonic EVA1 allows the infrared (IR) filter to be removed and replaced with a clear filter for extreme low-light conditions as a simple end-user configuration. Unique photographic effects and night-vision imagery are possible with this control over infrared. In addition, these filters are electronically driven and wireless remote control (requires an additional adapter) is also possible.
