THIS WEEK WE LOOKING AT THE ARRI ALEXA XT 4:3 RAW  Let’s take a quick look at the publicized features and then jump to what makes Old School Cameras excited that the Alexa XT is part of our rental catalog. The Alexa XT (Xtended Technology) adds a lot of exciting improvements. The most significant feature is the XR module, for faster in-camera ARRIRAW recording, a side panel that was co-developed with Codex and replaces the previous SxS Module, allowing in-camera ARRIRAW recording up to 120 fps onto speedy and tough 512 GB XR Capture Drives. Then we have built in ND filtration (reducing reflection, weight and hassle!), a new viewfinder mounting that is flexible and comfortable.  A super silent fan, built in Lens Data System, high speed licenses and Integrated CDL capture. These make the XT smaller, lighter and more affordable allowing highest overall image quality and lowest production cost. These are all great features but what makes Old School Cameras excited is the new sensor. The Alexa XT comes equipped with a 4:3 image sensor. We carry a lot of anamorphic and vintage lenses so it is a huge bonus having a sensor that is the same size and shape as a 35mm film frame to utilize these lenses to their full effect. The combination of the Alexa XT with anamorphic lenses gives a very specific widescreen image reminiscent of the CinemaScope fllms of the 1950’s. This is a look that has long been coveted by cinematographers, DP’s and directors, who choose their lenses just as artists choose their brushes. The XT gives us the palette. Some of the brushes we use at Old School Cameras:Canon K35, Super Baltars, Cooke S2, Anamorphic Cooke S2, LOMO, Master Primes,  Hawk Vintage ’74 anamorphic, Kowa Cine Prominars,  Lomo,  Zeiss uncoated Super Speeds, Leica Summicron C, Cineovision, Lomo Anamorphic, Kowa Anamorphic, Cooke Zoom Anamorphics, Angenieux and Canon K35 Zoom Ana !!  While the anamorphic feature is something we are very passionate about, this by no means limits the usage but just adds to the over all palette. A non anamorphic advantage of the 4:3 sensor is it allows substantial image reframing in post like shooting 4 perforation 35mm. So who is using the Alexa XT The Alexa XT is has already been used in a lot of productions., including: Guardians of the Galaxy, X-Men Days of Future Past, Lucy, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay part 1, The Giver, 22 Jump Street, Sex Tape, The Million Dollar Arm and many more. So it is out there there getting extensive use with awesome results.
