Canon R5C
XNDR uses a series of gear but the one that sticks out amongst the rest is the lead cinema camera. The Canon R5C is one of Canon's top cameras in its cinema line. Although it is classified as a cinema camera, the R5C is a hybrid shooter providing stunning 8K RAW video footage and a 45 megapixel count for still images. With this full-frame mirrorless camera, rest assured, you will get the best quality image you're looking for whether it's video or photo!
Canon R50V
The Canon R50V is one of Canon's newest video cameras in its compact line. Having a mirrorless crop sensor with 24 megapixels and 4K recording capability, this camera serves extremely well as a secondary. Similar to the R5C, this cam also has dual modes and serves well as a hybrid shooter. While it may not be as "beefy" as the R5C, this little thing packs a real punch for what it is and can guarantee great image and video quality!
Lenses
For those who know, lenses are the other half to a camera, literally and figuratively. Without a good, quality lens, your camera can't be utilized to its best capabilities. That's why XNDR uses Canon luxury and prime lenses. Each lens has crystal clear glass, which allows all of the camera's sensors to be used. Some beginner lenses prohibit the camera's resolution due to the poor quality or amateur build, but not these. XNDR has tested each lens and confirmed that when paired with the R5C or R50V, the video or image has maximum allotted resolution!
Not only are these lenses great for hybrid shooting, but they are becoming more and more popular for professional-grade commercials, filmmaking, etc. With these lenses paired with the right camera for the right scenario, you're in good hands!
Anamorphic Cinema Lens
The last but certainly the favorite lens is the Sirui 35mm Anamorphic Cinema Lens. Have you ever watched a movie or film that had the black bars on the top and bottom? Ever notice the subtle warping and vignetting on the far sides of the screen? This is what does that! This lens is built differently from your traditional spherical lens, like the ones above. This one has glass that is constructed in a way that pulls more visual information from the sides while cropping the top. AKA, the cinematic crop bars and panoramic view. This lens is great if you're trying to look and feel like a real film or just want an overall more cinematic style.
This lens opens a whole new door for filmmaking and commercial projects!
