Nikon’s first RED co-brand is the Nikon ZR
Nikon has just unveiled the ZR, its first official co-brand with RED, the cinema camera company it purchased in April of last year.
The ZR takes what Nikon has already been doing well, with its heavily adaptable Z-mount, internal RAW video recording and popular color science and turns it up to 11 for video shooters. That’s headlined by its ability to shoot RED R3D NE files. These files allow you to change settings like ISO and white balance can be changed in post, giving you way more flexibility after shooting. It was a big reason people purchased RED cameras in the past, and it’ll makes it much easier to color match these cameras to existing RED footage.
The ZR is based heavily on Nikon’s Z6III from last year, with a similar partially-stacked 24mp full-frame sensor, 7.5 stops of IBIS and 15+ stops of dynamic range, but it slims down the body to just 133×80.5×48.7mm and adds additional video-focused features like 32-bit audio out of the hotshoe and mic jack and a large 4-inch articulating touchscreen with 1000 nits of brightness.
The Nikon ZR will be available for $2,199 on October 20th.
