The AU-EVA1 is a new cinema camera positioned between the Lumix GH5 4K mirrorless camera and the VariCam LT 4K cinema camera. Create cinematic imagery thanks to both the newly-developed 5.7K Super 35 mm sensor and color science inherited from VariCam cinema cameras. A native EF mount with electronic connectivity has been utilised, and opens up the choice of lenses for EVA1 to a great extent – be it cine, fixed focal, macro or zoom lenses depending on the nature of the shoot. EVA1 records internally onto SD memory card at up to 4:2:2 10 bit, thus reducing the outlay on media costs. Compact and...

A single 4K sensor has limitations in achieving a 4K image. Because a single sensor utilizes a Bayer pattern color filter array, the camera must take the limited color and resolution information and extrapolate a full 4K RGB image. This results in a loss of resolving power as well as color data. The solution is to utilize a greater native number of photosites on the sensor that will yield more resolution and color information in the finished image. To deliver a full 4K finished image, a 5.7K Bayer pattern sensor is required. This is the new sensor design in the EVA1. Panasonic’s mission is...

VARICAM LOOK The ability to capture accurate colors and rich skin tones is a must for any filmmaker. EVA1 imports the renowned colorimetry of the VariCam lineup of cinema cameras. The EVA1 contains V-Log/ V-Gamut capture to deliver high dynamic range and broad colors. V-Log delivers a very flat image whilst maintaining all of the color information within the image. This means that there is a greater level of play when the images are put through post-production processes. The Super 35 mm sensor achieves a wide color gamut known as V-Gamut, which is EVA1’s optimum color space and achieves a color...
