• 4:3 sensor designed for anamorphic shooting and VFX workflows with extra framing margin.
• 14+ stops of dynamic range and natural color reproduction for a truly cinematic look.
• Included licenses: Anamorphic, Compression, DNxHD and Super Silent Fan.

Integrated remote control and LDS: faster setup and less weight

The ARRI Alexa XT Plus integrates remote control features that help reduce accessories, weight and rigging time. Thanks to its built‑in wireless control and Lens Data System (LDS), you avoid complex setups and heavy cabling, making the on‑set workflow faster and more efficient.

It is compatible with ARRI hand units (for example, WCU‑4) as well as cmotion hand units, which makes it a very flexible tool for camera crews.

Key features of the ARRI ALEXA XT family

Open Gate mode: maximum sensor area

Using the full sensor area, Open Gate mode is ideal for VFX‑heavy workflows, 4K up‑sampling, recomposition, resizing, rotation or stabilization. It can be used as a main capture format or reserved for specific scenes.

True anamorphic with 4:3 sensor

The 4:3 mode is crucial to achieve a panoramic theatrical image that emulates CinemaScope. In addition, the ALEXA XT family includes a de‑squeeze license for proper on‑set monitoring of anamorphic lenses.

Extra VFX marker space in 4:3

When shooting with spherical lenses, 4:3 mode leaves space above and below the active image to place tracking markers, and also provides additional margin for reframing in post‑production.

Recording: ARRIRAW, ProRes and DNxHD with XR module

The XR (Xtended Recording) module, developed together with Codex, enables on‑board recording of uncompressed, unencrypted ARRIRAW at the highest quality and up to 120 fps at full image quality. It simplifies camera builds, reduces cabling and turns the package into a more compact and efficient system.

You can also record in ProRes or DNxHD as alternatives to ARRIRAW. XR drives provide advanced features that save time (for example, ASC CDL capture), and offer different post‑production paths depending on schedule and budget.

• ProRes and DNxHD as in‑camera recording options.
• Possibility of recording on SxS PRO cards via adapters (depending on configuration).
• High‑speed license included: up to 120 fps in 16:9 and 96 fps in 4:3.

LDS and metadata: faster VFX and post‑production workflows

ALEXA XT models with LDS mount embed lens metadata into both recording formats and outputs, which is useful on set and also speeds up VFX workflows. This metadata can be displayed on compatible monitors or used in real‑time virtual production tools.

In post‑production, lens metadata (included in ARRIRAW, ProRes or DNxHD) helps to automatically match graphics / CGI and live‑action plates, reducing manual work and saving time.

"Super Silent Fan" license: cleaner shoots for sound recording

The Super Silent Fan license adds an even quieter fan system, making the ALEXA XT Plus especially suitable for dialogue‑driven shoots and locations where camera noise must be kept to an absolute minimum.
