Product Specifications
Full-Frame 6K Cinema Sensor
The Nikon ZR features a full-frame FX-format CMOS sensor with approximately 24.5 effective megapixels, delivering outstanding image quality, cinematic depth, and impressive low-light performance. The camera supports internal recording at up to 6K/59.94p, providing detailed footage suitable for high-end productions, documentaries, commercials, and narrative filmmaking.
REDCODE RAW (R3D NE) Internal Recording
One of the most significant innovations in the ZR is its support for REDCODE RAW (R3D NE) recording directly in-camera.
