Trusted Creative Partner
VENICE 2 is a cinema camera created by and for the cinematographer. The camera comes with one of two full-frame image sensors, each offering exceptional picture quality. Thanks to new internal recording capabilities, users can capture even more colours and detail within the compact body they already know.

Remarkable Images
VENICE 2 offers a choice between 8K and 6K sensors, both of which boast incredibly wide latitude and gamut. Filmmakers have greater freedom of expression in grading than ever before, with either 16 or 15+ stops of latitude and exquisite colour rendition.

Simple and Intuitive
Operators need to know their camera is reliable and usable, especially during demanding shoots. VENICE 2 features simple menu navigation and connectors arranged to make life easier on set. With a durable, compact build, the camera is fast to set up for handheld or mounted shooting, so you can focus on filming, not the camera.

36x24mm Full-Frame Sensor for Cinema
VENICE 2 features one of two 36x24mm full-frame image sensors, designed speciﬁcally for the demands and performance of high-end cinematography. Each offers remarkable sensitivity, latitude and colour rendition, and because the sensor blocks are interchangeable, users can easily switch between sensors—without any extra firmware—and can even use the sensor from their original VENICE. The new 8K sensor can capture images up to a maximum resolution of 8640 x 5760, while the established 6K sensor offers up to 6048 x 4032. Both offer powerful oversampling for incredible 4K images.

Full-Frame full width 36 mm 8K and 6K
In full-frame, you can use the full width of the sensors (6048 or 8640 pixels) for widescreen spherical 2.39:1 or Large Format Scope. Full-Frame can be used creatively in a number of ways – for example, to allow for extra shallow depth of ﬁeld or super-wide shooting.

Super35 full height 2.0x squeeze Anamorphic
For anamorphic shooting and production, Super35 full height 2x squeeze anamorphic is supported.

Super35 17:9 and 16:9
These popular imager sizes have native support in VENICE 2, and the 8K sensor makes it possible to capture 5.8K footage in these modes. Current Super35mm PL mount lenses can be used as well.

Phenomenal Latitude
VENICE 2’s 8K sensor has an exceptional 16 stops of latitude, while the 6K sensor boasts 15+ stops of latitude. This means that both imagers can deliver phenomenal images with very little noise, in conditions that range from searing sunlight to almost no light. VENICE 2 also excels at High Dynamic Range imaging, allowing for unprecedented creative freedom in grading.

More Colours for More Expression
VENICE 2 can exceed the BT.2020 colour space, with a colour range wider than DCI-P3. This means it can beautifully reproduce the true colour of the scene in front of your lens. The camera also provides a broad palette in the grading suite, using the established workﬂow of Sony’s S-Log3 and Ultra-wide Colour space, S-Gamut3. Plus, VENICE 2’s 6K and 8K sensors match colours almost perfectly, making your grading experience even better.

High Frame Rate
VENICE 2 can shoot at speeds of up to 120fps at 4K and 90fps at 6K, when using the 6K sensor. In combination with an anamorphic license, it also allows shooting at speeds of up to 75fps at 4K 4:3 and 72fps at 4K 6:5. With the 8K sensor, VENICE 2 can achieve up to 60fps at 8.2K and 90fps at 5.8K.

Fast Shutter
Jello effect is something we don’t need when filming. VENICE 2 has high speed readout sensors which minimizes the jello effect that are typical with CMOS sensors.
