RED V-RAPTOR [X] 8K VV – Global Shutter Full-Frame Cinema Camera, RF Mount

The best of both RED families

The V-RAPTOR [X] 8K VV combines the frame rates, low-light performance and resolution of the V-RAPTOR line with the global shutter of KOMODO. Its 35.4 MP 8K VV sensor brings large format, global shutter and high frame rates to a compact 1.83 kg body.

Large format with global shutter

According to RED, it is the first large-format global shutter camera available: no skew or jello on fast movement, with 17+ stops of dynamic range. It records 8K up to 120 fps (150 fps at 2.4:1), 6K up to 160 fps, 4K up to 240 fps and 2K up to 480 fps (600 fps at 2.4:1) in REDCODE RAW, and Apple ProRes up to 4K 120p.

RED Global Vision

Extended Highlights uses the global shutter to capture more highlight detail for HDR, or a softer roll-off for SDR. Phantom Track streamlines virtual production with GhostFrame or Frame Remapping, recording a separate R3D clip per sub-frame and monitoring each live over its own SDI.

Built on V-RAPTOR

It keeps the V-RAPTOR essentials: dual 12G-SDI with independent monitoring views, a locking RF mount (PL lenses via RED RF to PL adapters, EF with communication) and CFexpress Type B media up to 800 MB/s. It adds improved audio pre-amps, a redesigned sensor cavity against stray light and phase-detect autofocus with face detection.

IP connected

Remote control and monitoring, in-camera Frame.io integration, direct AWS upload and RED Connect support for live 8K R3D over IP or 4K over SMPTE ST 2110.

Colour and audio

IPP2 image processing with 33x33x33 3D LUTs and CDL support. Dual built-in microphones, 5-pin audio input with mic, line and 48 V phantom, and a 3.5 mm headphone output.

Compatibility

Locking RF mount.
