Dual sensor and Low Light mode on the RED GEMINI 5K
Dual‑sensitivity sensor technology
The RED GEMINI 5K features a dual‑sensitivity sensor that lets you switch between two native ISO modes without compromising image quality:
- Standard mode (800 ISO): ideal for exteriors, well‑lit studios and natural‑light conditions.
- Low Light mode (3200 ISO): optimized for night shoots, dark interiors and low‑light situations, keeping noise low.
This versatility makes the GEMINI 5K an ideal camera for productions that need flexibility across different lighting conditions without changing cameras.
Simultaneous REDCODE RAW + ProRes/DNx recording
One of the standout features of the RED GEMINI 5K is its ability to record simultaneously in two formats:
- REDCODE RAW: for maximum quality and flexibility in post, VFX and grading.
- Apple ProRes or Avid DNxHD/HR: for immediate editing and faster workflows.
This enables a RAW file for the final master and a high‑quality proxy for offline editing, optimizing workflows on complex productions.
