Z CAM E2C 4K Cinema Camera

Z CAM E2C: Your Gateway to the World of Cinematic 4K Imagery

The Z CAM E2C is the smallest and most affordable camera in the Z CAM family, designed to make high-quality 4K recording accessible to the widest possible range of creators. Despite its miniature dimensions, it retains professional features such as 10-bit recording, Z-Log2 support, and a flexible MFT mount. It is an ideal choice for aspiring filmmakers, YouTube content creators, as a B-camera, or for specialized installations where every gram and centimeter counts.

Key Features

• Cinematic 4K UHD recording: The camera uses a 4/3" CMOS sensor capable of recording 4K UHD video (3840x2160) at standard cinematic frame rates (23.98/24/25/29.97p) and in 10-bit color for smooth color gradations.
• 11.5 EV dynamic range: Despite its size, the camera offers a solid dynamic range of 11.5 EV (when using Z-Log2), giving you greater freedom in color grading during post-production.
• Flexible MFT mount: The Micro Four Thirds (MFT) mount is one of the most versatile on the market. It allows the use of a wide range of compact and affordable lenses, as well as the adaptation of almost any other optics.
• Affordable media: Unlike the larger models, the E2C records to widely available and inexpensive SDXC memory cards (U3 recommended), significantly reducing operating costs.
• External ProRes RAW: For maximum image quality, you can record 12-bit Apple ProRes RAW externally via the HDMI output to a compatible recorder (e.g., Atomos Ninja V).
• Advanced power options: The camera can be powered not only by standard Canon LP-E6 batteries but also via an external DC input, or even over a network cable thanks to PoE (Power over Ethernet) support.
• Easy remote control: Using the Z Camera App, you can fully control the camera, watch a live preview, and change all settings.
