- Offers on-sensor enhanced phase-detect autofocus and in-camera AI processing for select EF lenses with face detection and object tracking coming in future updates.
Built-In Pro Interfaces
- Designed for professional crew use with integrated auxiliary power and mounting points for attaching multiple high-end camera accessories.
- Built-in Ambient Lockit mode for wireless genlock and timecode syncing.

Applications
The streamlined form, interchangeable lens mounts, and the classic Super35 look makes the V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 ideal for wildlife, broadcast, and cine-style productions.
Internal ND Filters
- Motorized clear and 2 to 7-stop electronic ND filters with 1/3, 1/4, and 1-stop increments provide precision exposure control.
- The internal NDs are easily controlled via the side push buttons or wirelessly using the iOS/Android RED Control app.
Side Control Panel
- Conveniently located on the assistant s side, an easy-to-navigate, 2.4" LCD panel provides comprehensive control, including status updates, in-camera format selection, and customizable buttons.
- The V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 s compact and durable DSMC3 form features micro-V battery compatibility, several monitor options, CFexpress card capture, and a modular design that, when paired with a compact Super35 lens, creates a portable, ergonomic form.
Note:
The LCD panel is for camera control only it does not provide preview video.
Streamlined Form with Dual-Voltage Battery Support
- The built-in interfaces and integrated OLED display lend the V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 camera rig a streamlined, accessible form.
- An integrated Gold mount battery plate supports 24 to 34V batteries with multiple auxiliary power outputs and standard 12 to 16V batteries.
Advanced Cooling
- The V-RAPTOR XL 8K S35 s advanced cooling system uses dedicated fans to separately reduce the temperature of auxiliary power components and camera components while a heat exchanger maintains a precise sensor temperature.
- Together, these cooling functions reduce noise while recording, create a more robust system, and produce less black shading.
RED Control App
- Use the iOS and Android-compatible RED Control or RED Control Pro app for remote or tethered camera access.
- Access is available via Wi-Fi and the USB-C and Ethernet interfaces.
