DJI Zenmuse X9-8K Gimbal Camera

The Zenmuse X9-8K Gimbal Camera from DJI provides a way for existing Ronin 4D-6K owners to upgrade their capture with 8K recording options and an ACES-certified workflow. Mount the X9-8K on your main 4D body, add an 8K raw license, and update it to the latest firmware to access 17:9 capture rates up to 8K60 video in Apple ProRes Raw and 8K30 in ProRes 422 HQ. The resulting 4D X9-8K rig offers the higher imaging standards required for visual effects, cine-style capture, and broadcasting while reducing your setup time with its all-in-one combination design.

Note that the 8K raw license is not included and must be purchased separately.

 

• The DJI DCCS color science reproduces vivid, natural skin tones in a range of lighting conditions and creates looks that are compatible with ARRI footage.
• Support for the industry-standard ACES workflow provides easy compatibility with other cinema cameras.
• The full-frame Zenmuse X9-8K camera uses a proprietary chip for advanced processing and high-performance computing.

• Requires an 8K raw license and upgrade to the latest firmware.
