Phantom Flex4K delivers low noise, high resolution 4K imaging at super 35mm format. The full- size images are delivered via 9.4 Gpx throughput in the Cine Raw file format. With up to 1,000 fps in 4K the images are compatible with major color grading and video editing applications and support standard sync-sound frame rates.
Lens mount options increase the operator flexibility and are interchangeable between PL, Canon EF (with electronic control), and Nikon F. The ability to change mounts encourages shot variety and decreases workflow difficulty between shots. The Flex4K features a complete on-camera control interface view a menu system. 100% un-tethered operation is possible through battery mounts and remote-control options.
