RED V-RAPTOR XE 8K VV Cinema Camera Essentials Pack (Nikon Z)

The RED V-RAPTOR XE 8K VV Essentials Pack (Nikon Z) is a compact, full-frame cinema camera kit featuring RED’s flagship 8K global shutter sensor with 17+ stops of dynamic range. It includes a PL lens mount adapter with electronic ND, a daylight-viewable RED Touch 7.0" LCD, and an Outrigger handle for versatile rigging and monitoring in professional film environments.

The XE captures 8K full-frame video at up to 60 fps with a global shutter, eliminating motion distortion and flash banding common with rolling shutters. Its 35.4MP VV sensor ensures pristine detail and colour accuracy across all lighting conditions with a fast 8 ms scan time.
