EPIC ushers in the next generation of digital cinema, featuring a 5K sensor capable of capturing 1 to 120 frames per second at full resolution. From fashion spreads to 3D IMAX features, EPIC has crossbred elite photography with unrivaled cinema capability—all in a camera the size of a DSLR. In challenging lighting conditions, EPIC makes it easy to adapt with its ability to reach up to 18 stops of dynamic range with HDRx. Remarkable technology packed into a 4lb body - with EPIC, less is more.
Whether you’re shooting a spread for Esquire or an IMAX-ready blockbuster, EPIC’s stunning 5K images fit every facet of distribution. Precisely engineered to exceed even the highest standards, EPIC features advanced technology that sets the precedent for cinema and photographic excellence. With DSMC functionality, you’ll be able to capture a breadth of video and stills all at once. Any lens. Every job. One EPIC.
No project is ever the same. Which is why EPIC features interchangeable lens mounts to ensure you get the look you want every time. With mounts for Nikon, Leica, Canon, and PL glass, you’ll never be short of options to pick and choose from. Equip yourself to express your vision with EPIC and DSMC technology.
HDRx technology yields up to 18 stops of dynamic range, broadening your exposure in even the most challenging lighting conditions. EPIC offers at least 4 more stops of latitude than its 35mm and DSLR counterparts, allowing cinematographers and photographers alike to make the impossible possible. With HDRx, dynamic range is finally dynamic.
EPIC is the only 5K solution for lightweight 3D image acquisition. Small form factor and broad compatibility is important for efficient 3D production, which is why 3ality Technica was inspired to create their compact ATOM 3D rig exclusively for the EPIC. Once you’ve shot your footage, bring your project into REDCINE-X PRO for easy 3D grading, viewing, and exporting. EPIC adds another dimension to what you once thought was possible with a cinema camera.
With EPIC's ability to capture 5K at up to 120 frames per second, you’ll never miss that perfect shot. Ever. For even faster speeds, switch to 2K resolution and capture up to 300 frames per second while retaining 2x the detail of HD. For robust efficiency, you can capture video and photos simultaneously, using an HDRx track to draw sharper stills. With EPIC, your subject will never be faster than your camera.
