RAW Recording Option
Expand 4K/2K RAW recording capability on AXS memory card
The genius of 4K and 2K RAW
Sony empowered the NEX-FS700R with a brilliant 4K image sensor featuring 4096 x 2160 resolution. Now
you can unlock all that picture quality with the interface unit HXR-IFR5 and the RAW recorder AXS-R5
combination. 4K RAW delivers the sensor’s full resolution and full exposure latitude. RAW recording
preserves the integrity of the original camera signal for superlative image quality and amazing flexibility in
post. And the 2K mode maintains your Super 35mm angle of view. 2K is particularly smart for an HD finish,
delivering the quality of RAW with very manageable file sizes.
High speed 4K/2K RAW
In addition to pristine image quality, the NEX-FS700R was designed for Super Slow Motion. These benefits
extend to RAW recording. Continuous 4K recording is available at 23.98, 25, 29.97, 50 and 59.94 frames per
second. For higher speeds and longer durations, you can record continuous 2K RAW at 23.98, 25, 29.97,
50, 59.94, 100, 120, 200 and 240 fps. In continuous recording, there’s no waiting for the data to spool from
a buffer. You can also record super-long RAW clips all the way up to the full media capacity. A special
burst mode records 4K to a buffer at 100 or 120 fps for up to approximately 4 seconds, providing up to 18
seconds of stunning high-speed playback at 24p.
* In RAW mode, no audio is recorded at frame rates above 59.94 fps.
Established post path
Sony RAW recording is proven, robust, and compatible with a world of third-party solutions for dailies,
editing and grading. Thanks to free Sony plug-ins, leading NLEs can perform real-time, native editing of
Sony RAW assets. The HXR-IFR5 connects to the same AXS-R5 outboard RAW recorder as used with Sony’s
popular F55 and F5 cameras. The recorder works in conjunction with Sony’s rugged AXS-512S24 AXS
memory card, the AXS-CR1 card reader for fast file transfers
and Sony’s RAW Viewer software (v1.1 or later). This is the
same software used for RAW files from the F5, F55, and it
enables you to play back RAW files, do a simple color
grade, and even transcode to the SR Codec, DPX and
OpenEXR formats.
