ARRIFLEX D-21The Film Style Digital Camera
The ARRIFLEX D-21 combines leading edge digital technology with film camera features that have been refined over ARRI’s 90-year history. It allows directors and cinematographers to shoot in the same way as they would with 35 mm film, while taking advantage of the immediacy and economy of digital acquisition.
Through ARRI Imaging Technology (AIT), the D-21 produces brilliant images with a cinematic look and feel. D-21 images have a high dynamic range, high contrast and the most film-like color reproduction of any digital motion picture camera.
Incorporating a rotating mirror shutter, optical viewfinder and compatibility with existing film accessories, the D-21 is immediately recognizable as an ARRI camera and film crews feel comfortable operating it. Further film style features include variable frame rate and robust construction.
The D-21's single, Super 35-size CMOS sensor exhibits the same cinematic depth of field as 35 mm film and the camera's industry standard PL lens mount accepts the same unequalled variety of spherical lenses as used on 35 mm film cameras. Since the D-21 is the only digital high-end camera with a 4x3 aspect ratio sensor, it can make full use of anamorphic lenses.
The ARRIRAW format enables the D-21 to output raw uncompressed data. Alternatively – or simultaneously – the camera can output an uncompressed HD signal that works perfectly in the established HD infrastructure. With such flexibility, the D-21 easily adapts to a variety of production requirements and budgets.
