Kinefinity KineRaw S35 Raw Digital Cinema Camera

At the time it was, essentially, vapourware, but now it seems that the launch of this camera is just weeks away…and at a projected price of approximately $6000 for a 2K (down sampled from 4K), 12 bit raw, S35mm camera, than can take PL, Canon & Nikon lenses, could turn out to be a very significant development.

If it fulfils its promise, then the combination of the KineRAW S35, Blackmagic Design’s new $3000, 2.5K raw shooting M43 Digital Cinema Camera and the crowd funded S16 Raw shooting Digital Bolex, might just be the catalyst for Sony, Canon & RED, to produce competitively priced raw cinema cameras…and if it is not, apparently Kinefinity has 4K raw, S16 raw & S8 raw cameras in development…
