thanks to Sennheiser and Kingston for powering our neb coverage this year
0:04
check them out at the links in the video description so many of you know the
0:08
mainstream camera brands like Canon Sony and Panasonic you may not have heard of
0:13
a little company called K Affinity they're are Chinese camera band
0:16
manufacturer that is up till now focused on making highquality raw cameras on a
0:22
budget this year they unveiled a camera they're calling the Terra now what makes
0:26
the Tera such an interesting entry into the camera Market is that it's available
0:29
in both a 6K resolution model and a 5k
0:33
resolution model Each of which cost $6,000 and $5,000 respectively K
0:38
Infinity has effectively delivered the most budget effective 6K camera
0:41
currently on the market but there's more to this camera than simply high
0:45
resolution the 6K sensor is drawn from K Infinity's previous kinamax 6K camera
0:50
but delivering it in a small form factor that solo camera operators like myself
0:55
love both models of the Tera will support standard 2.5 in ssds and while
0:59
kity will sell their own you have the option of using fast thirdparty ssds as
1:04
well the 5K model of the Tera will support both a rolling shutter and a
1:08
global shutter simultaneously giving you an option to choose between each mode
1:12
depending on your shooting situation while this does affect your dynamic
1:16
range on the camera the rolling shutter mode will have 15 stops of dynamic range
1:20
and the global shutter will have 13 stops of dynamic range both very
1:24
respectable numbers for any camera on the market the Terra does support the
1:27
typical raw recording they have been known for however it will also be the first time
1:31
any K Infinity camera is able to record up to prores HQ internally which makes
1:37
handling the files and postproduction a much more streamlined process versus the
1:41
raw workflow K Infinity has also mentioned to me that they're working
1:44
hard to enable their High frame rate modes to also record directly into pror
1:47
internally the high frame rate modes on the Terra allow up to 225 FPS on the 6K
1:53
model and up to 200 FPS on the 5K model
1:56
giving very solid slow motion capabilities to this camera accessory
2:00
wise kidia has the option to add their own version of what is essentially a
2:04
speed booster similar to the adapter I covered in this video here the Terra is
2:08
also fully compatible with their current kyack module that adds on Dual XLR ports
2:12
SDI out time code in and out and DC power outputs I am glad we are seeing
2:17
cameras like the Tera get released into the current market since we are now
2:20
really coming into the time where previously Unthinkable features are coming into cameras below the $10,000
2:25
price point continuing the trend of accessibility for nearly anyone working
2:28
