Panavision Unveils the Millennium DXL2 Camera With a Monstrous 8K Sensor

We live in times when cinematographers have broken the barriers of visuals in a motion picture, thanks to the breakthroughs in the camera applied science. Panavision, once a favorite of Hollywood filmmakers and a pioneer in the domain, has today unveiled ane such landmark production in the form of the Panavision Millenium DXL2 8K big-format photographic camera, which as the name clearly suggests, features a beefy 8K sensor for a superior filmmaking feel and an unparalleled visual output.

At the BSC Expo 2018, Panavision lifted the wraps from its latest offering- the Millenium DXL2 8K camera, which employs a RED MONSTRO 8K VistaVision sensor and Panavision's camera architecture. The Millennium DXL2's 8K sensor offers over 16 dynamic range stops and a maximum ISO setting of up to 1600 counts, which is truly impressive, alongside a ProRes mode which facilitates 4K video recording at a frame charge per unit of up to 60FPS.

But the 8K sensor is not the simply USP of the Millennium DXL2, as Panavision's latest creation also comes with its ownLight Iron Color2 (LiColor2) technology, which is claimed to provide an unmatched colour reproduction, specially when it comes to the skin tone of human subjects.

Furthermore, the camera also features an integrated PX-Pro color spectrum filter particularly made for the DXL line-upward, which is claimed to provide a significant boost to hue separation and color precision. Some other goodie that comes with the whole package is an Anamorphic Flare Attachment (AFA) which facilitates a highly customizable method of calculation flare effects by using spherical lenses.

But there is a rather odd take hold of. Yous can Non buy the Panavision Millenium DXL2 8K camera, as it volition only be available to filmmakers on a rental ground. According to Panavision's official press release, the Millenium DXL2 8K is now available to rent exclusively from Panavision's channel across the globe.
