ARRI AMIRA Begins Shipping in April 2

ARRI AMIRA Begins Shipping in April 1ARRI is pleased to announce the highly anticipated AMIRA documentary-style camera, available in a range of upgradeable packages, will begin shipping in April.

AMIRA is the versatile documentary-style camera that combines exceptional image quality and affordable CFast 2.0 workflows with an ergonomic design optimized for single-operator use and extended shoulder-mounted operation. Ready to pick up and shoot straight out of the camera bag, AMIRA is hardy enough to take anywhere and features in-camera grading with preloaded 3D LUTs, as well as 200
fps slow motion. It is suitable for a variety of production types, from reportage and corporate films to TV drama and low-budget movies.

In today’s environment of lower budgets and shortened schedules, TV productions often do not have the luxury of spending significant time finessing a ‘look’ in post. AMIRA is unique in that it comes with a number of 3D LUT-based Looks that can be applied on set during the shoot. Alternatively, productions can custom build their own 3D LUTs in external grading systems, load them into the camera during prep, and even modify them in-camera while filming. Adobe Premiere Pro CC is the first non-linear editing system supporting the color management of AMIRA QuickTime
ProRes files. Premiere can apply look files (including 3D LUTs) that are included in AMIRA files and convert automatically from Log C to REC 709 within an easy, failsafe system. Similar announcements for other major post production tools are expected to follow soon.

There are three camera configurations to choose from, differentiated by their feature sets. Customers then complete their package by selecting whatever combination of lens mount, battery mount and bottom plate meets their needs. Whichever AMIRA camera set is initially chosen, it can be upgraded with additional functionality by purchasing a license at the ARRI website.
