• ARRI ALEXA, 11 Exposure Depending on the subject matter in front of the camera, you can use regular ND filters up to an ND 0.9. Beyond that, we recommend the use of ND filters that also attenuate the far red spectrum or the use of ND filters plus a separate filter that attenuates the far red spectrum. The use of only ND filters beyond ND 0.9 can lead to some black fabrics, especially synthetics, being recorded with a reddish/brown tint. The denser the ND filter in front of the camera, the more important it is to also attenuate the far red spectrum. Filters that reduce the far red spectrum, as well as such filters in combination with ND filters, a

• ARRI ALEXA, 31 Output Options Aside from the ARRIRAW output, which contains no color processing, ALEXA can output images with four different color processing methods (commonly called ‘gamma’) applied. Thus ALEXA can provide the appropriate image format for a wide range of workflows from feature films to television. • Log C (film matrix off) is a Log C signal with a wide gamut color space. This option provides great flexibility in color grading, as it preserves the most color information in the recorded image. However, you should be aware that Log C is an intermediate color format and not designed as a display standard. Viewed on a regular v

While largerly irrelevant for live action, this measurement is important for special effects work. All data subject to change without notice. (9)
