Yeah, you got that right! The Mavo EDGE 8K is the very first cine camera of Kinefinity’s lineup that is now officially offered by a leading US-based retailer such as B&H. The 8K camera is listed as a standalone unit selling for $11,999 which is the original price announced back in April 2020 when we initially heard about the camera itself.
At B&H, you can also opt for the special Essential or Pro Package Kits retailing for $15,799 and $18,399 respectively. To recall, the MAVO Edge boasts a Full-frame sensor (44.7MP) with 14+ stops of dynamic range and brings internal 8K video recording up to 75fps. Available codec options include Apple ProRes RAW alongside ProRes 4444 XQ, ProRes 422 HQ, and H.264 proxy.
The Mavo EDGE also features Open gate 3:2 8K mode at up to 48fps as well as 6K Wide at up to 100fps and 4K Wide at up to 160fps. Other noteworthy features include Dual native ISO at 800/3200 and internal ND filters. The brand new camera comes with a native KineMOUNT, which can be adapted to PL, LPL, active EF, and passive E-mount.
Interestingly enough, the MAVO Edge is the first Kinefinity camera to feature an internal motorized ND filter system covering a range of 2 to 7 stops with continuous adjustment. It also offers dual media slot design enabling the camera to record the same clips simultaneously. Recording the main codec to one card and H.264 proxy files to the other is also possible.
When it comes to I/O, users get access to a plethora of standard ports, including genlock, timecode, RS232 protocol, an RS port for powering and triggering external recording. Additionally, there are two independently controlled XLR inputs providing 48v Phantom Power along with a separate 3.5mm stereo mic in, a RJ45 port for Gigabit Ethernet, a WIFI5 wireless network, USB-C, and Bluetooth 5.0.
