Kinefinity Terra 4K Cinema Camera Body

High speed 4K CMOS image sensor with Dual Native ISO

TERRA, the Small Cine Camera with high performance, which can be as easy to use as a DSLR. TERRA 4K as a new TERRA member, features high speed 4K CMOS image sensor with Dual Native ISO(800/3200): it captures low-noise and wide-latitude images in regular scenes or low-light environments, easily.

As a small and powerful cinema camera, TERRA is designed from bottom to top to facilitate filmmaking from shooting to post workflow. The value and flexibility from the TERRA lets you put more of your production budget and energy into what goes in front of the camera. It’s a serious film-making tool with real Digital Cinema Camera features at such a price within reach.

4K+ Resolution

TERRA 4K is capable of Capturing and Recording 4K+ as 4096×2800 RAW* (.krw) or Apple ProRes without external recorder. Its vertical resolution is up to 2800, more 30% than regular 4K UHD/DCI resolution, easier for 4:3 anamorphic shooting. With the advanced CMOS process technology, the CMOS sensor has lower noise level, half of TERRA 6K, and its base ISO is up to 1600.

14 stops with Dual Native ISO

TERRA 4K employs a whole-new CMOS image sensor featuring with Dual Native ISO : 800/3200. It captures low-noise and wide-latitude images in regular scenes or low-light environment, easily. The latitude reaches up to 14 stops at regular 4K and cropping mode, and even more than 14 stops at whole frame 2K mode (using all pixels and oversampling down to 2K).

4K 100FPS

All TERRA models have very good slow-mo ability. For TERRA 4K, the fps at 4K wide can be boosted up to 100fps due to its high native frame rate, then the whole frame 2K wide can work as 100fps, cropping 2K wide can work up to 240fps. For TERRA 6K supports 4K Wide Slow-Mo up to 100fps at HiSpeed S35 and 2K Wide to 225fps at HiSpeed S16. As of quick-mo, the minimum fps is down to 2fps. Any custom sensor fps can be set between lowest and highest fps with step of 0.001fps.

ProRes for All Res and All Fps

TERRA allows lossless RAW* (.krw) recording or Apple ProRes recording directly. For ProRes codec, it does not only support regular 2K/4K ProRes, but also has ability to record ProRes 422HQ for all resolution and all fps which the TERRA supports, like 6K ProRes, 4K wide 100fps ProRes, 2K@225fps for HiSpeed mode. Apple ProRes as an industry standard is widely supported by DI/NLE softwares. TERRA with ProRes speeds up both shooting and post-workflow at the same time.

Lossless KineRAW*

KineRAW* (.krw) codec, cinema-level codec is developed by Kinefinity with great efforts and resources. Average compression level is 2:1~3:1, lossless compression algorithm: no color sampling and loss. The 500GB KineMAG SSD could record around 80 minutes 4K RAW* clips with its date rate slightly larger than ProRes422HQ. It can be transcoded into up to ProRes4444XQ for ProRes workflow or CinemaDNG for CinemaDNG workflow by KineStation; It really fits 4K, 6K recording and HiSpeed recording: reserving max grading room, saving much storage spaces and easier data backup.

2.5″ SSD recording media

TERRA employs standard 2.5″ 7mm SSD SATA3.0 as recording media to provide compatibility of 3rd-party SSD, though TERRA is so small. There are lots of off-the-shelf 7mm SSD available. However performance of 3rd party SSD is not guaranteed, only official 7mm KineMAG 500G/1T SSD is recommended for serious shootings.

Custom in-camera LUT

You can upload the LUT/color style which you like, or DP like, or designed by post house to TERRA, so that the workflow from shooting to post will be optimised and reduce the time for you, also help on-site lighting and art work. For recording KRW or ProRes with custom LUT, it does not burn into footage: footage is always logged (by KineLOG3), on-site LUT for monitoring is saved to the same folder. The size of 3D LUT is from 8x8x8 up to 33x33x33.

Multi-Framing

Oversampling + Crop mode + KineEnhancer = infinity combination of resolution, fps and framing. With the help of in-camera oversampling, TERRA records to 6K ProRes, but also 4K/3K/2K ProRes with sharper and more clean images at S35. The framing can be from S35 up to full frame if using KineEnhancer, while cropping mode can boost the higher fps. TERRA supports above three modes to get multi-framing and multi res, at different fps.

4K 4:3 Anamorphic

TERRA 4K provides 4:3 frame as 3700×2800@50fps, TERRA 6K as 4320×3240@25fps. and Aspect ratio of 4:3 matches anamorphic lens with factor of 2, so that it will gain CinemaScope frame as 8:3(2.66:1). With the desqueezed process in post-workflow, it can reach up to 7400×2800/7200×2700/8640×3240 (8K) CinemaScope!

KineMOUNT as Omni Mount

KineMOUNT is the native lens mount of TERRA. It provides enough possibility due to its short FFD(15mm). New KineMOUNT is re-designed to be light with electronic contact (active) in order to support new PL mounting adapter with /i tech and new cordless EF mounting adapter, EF mounting adapter with KineEnhancer, Nikon F mounting adapter, new SONY FE/E mounting adapter, EF/PL mounting adapters with electronic ND(e-ND), etc.

Whole-new Accessories

A group of whole-new accessories are designed specifically for TERRA, so that TERRA can be configured for one-man job or a professional filmmaking crew. KineBACK provides more than SDI monitoring, XLR 48V audio, V-mount plate, regulated DC output, timecode sync and 3D sync in one little module. KineMON as fullHD 5″ monitor is powered and is fed video from TERRA body by only one cord. SideGrip, as new handgrip w/ powering and control from GripBAT 45Wh(BP-U30 compatible) battery, more than one hour for usage. KineBAT 120Wh as Super compact V-mount battery provides over four hours to TERRA. KineKIT-TERRA from Movcam takes into account of TERRA in different scenarios, such as hand-held, tripod, on shoulder, gimbal, high and low shooting angles, etc., which makes it best choice for TERRA.
