Independent filmmaking with RED color science and 6K internal R3D recording

Run-and-gun documentary and narrative work with 32-bit float audio

The ZR is the world's first interchangeable lens camera to support 32-bit float audio recording (internal and external microphones), eliminating audio clipping as a concern on documentary and ENG productions. The OZO Audio-powered built-in mic with 5 pickup patterns provides production-quality audio without external recording accessories.

Yes. At 540g (body only), the ZR is the lightest Z CINEMA body—compact enough for solo gimbal operation, long-form handheld documentary work, and run-and-gun cinematography where heavy cinema cameras create operational difficulties. The 4.0-inch DCI-P3 vari-angle LCD with LUT monitoring enables independent camera operation without additional monitoring.
