Super 35mm XDCAM EX camera inherits DNA from the F35, which has been used for years in high-end digital cinematography, as well as most of features and file-based workflow capabilities of PMW-EX1R and EX3 XDCAM EX solid-state memory camcorders. PMW-F3 is equipped with newly developed Exmor Super 35 CMOS image sensor, PL lens mount, and SxS card for 1920 x 1080 full-HD recording. PMW-F3 features future expandability, including RGB 4:4:4 baseband output with S-LOG gamma for external recording which means it can be used in an HDCAM-SR workflow. It also offers 3D-LINK option, which allows two camcorders to be controlled simultaneously for 3D stereoscopic shooting.
