ARRICORE

 

[Phil Holland]

If you didn't see my socials post yesterday, I added the Alexa 35 Xtreme to my free online tools at phfx.com/tools. shotPrep and formatCompare reflect the changes in formats/resolutions found in the new A35X versus the original A35. Additionally, I've added ARRICORE to frameToDataRate.

Just so it's clear, as it's very much not in the current white paper, ARRICORE is a 13-bit log encoded format. They do list the linear encoded value range, but oddly not the log.

This is more for post people who do things relevant to that.

I missed that it was S35, definitely cool but with no 8K+ option, I'm still waiting to see what Arri can do in the high resolution space. They don't even need to compete with the URSA Cine line at 12K and 17K, just do great 8K and catch up!
