What is a large sensor camera?

Large sensor cameras let you capture cinema-quality footage. They are more powerful than consumer video cameras. Designed for amateurs and seasoned filmmakers alike, cinema cameras deliver impressive quality for independent productions and major studios alike.

A camera with a large sensor is capable of capturing images that look like they were shot on 35mm film. Like DSLRs and hybrid digital cameras, they use interchangeable lens systems. However, dedicated cine cameras have more powerful image processors, record video in codecs with higher bit rates, and feature more robust sound capture capabilities.

How to choose a cinema camera?

Sensor size and resolution are 2 key factors. While the reference sensor size for cameras is the full-frame sensor, cinema cameras generally use the Super 35 sensor. This is roughly the same size as the APS-C sensor found in many cameras.

To ensure your purchase lasts, consider cameras capable of shooting 4K video. Even if you only need 1080p footage, the downscaling of 4K video produces better results than shooting with a camera that achieves a maximum resolution of 1080p.
