ARRI ALEXA 35 SUP 1.3.0: New ProRes 3.8K 16:9 Format
360 Seconds. Broadcast News & Commentary is a weekly program on Youtube about the latest equipment for broadcasting and film. Explained by experts – practitioners directly working in the field of cinema and television.
Hosts: Philip Grossman, host and co-producer at Visionaries, and Ezequiel “Pax” Moore. Production – TKT1957 LLC. Aired July 8, 2024.
Pax: ARRI has released a Software Update Pack 1.3 for the ALEXA 35. It includes a new 3.8K format for recording, enhanced monitoring options, including playback support for headphones with the AEM-1, additional lens user buttons, Wi-Fi improvements, as well as other metadata enhancements. What are your thoughts about this one, Philip?
Philip: So, I’m a RED shooter, so ARRI is my nemesis… just kidding. ARRI makes fantastic cameras. They are, I think, 70% or so of the film production world. It’s interesting to see that effectively, cameras nowadays are computers that happen to have a sensor and lens mount on them. The ability to improve and add features and functions to those cameras over time is really a value to the end user, the person who just purchased the camera. So you’re not just purchasing something that, when you pull it out of the box, that’s all it’s ever going to do. They’re able to add these different and increased functionalities and capabilities to the cameras over time.
So it’s an exciting world. I’m glad to see ARRI sort of jumping on that bandwagon as well and really pushing those boundaries with what they’re able to process in the camera. For all the ARRI users, I think this is a great update. This camera, I think, came out in 2022 and has sort of become a mainstay in the film world. Now they have some additional features and functions that they’ll be able to apply in the field.
Pax: Many thanks to our expert Philip Grossman and the TKT team! Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
