RED Gemini 5K

RED Gemini 5K is RED’s highest sensitivity sensor to date and offers significantly increased performance in low-light settings and improved performance in shadows. The RED Gemini 5K can shoot up to 75 fps in full sensor resolution of 5120×3000 and up to 120 fps in 4k – all in RED’s industry leading REDCODE RAW format, and can record Prores proxies simultaneously.

RED Gemini Operating Manual

RED Gemini 5K:

Even though the GEMINI sensor has fewer photosites than its HELIUM and MONSTRO brethren, it has a cool trick up its sleeve. Using advanced circuitry designed for the aerospace industry, the GEMINI can switch native sensitivities. Practically speaking, it can operate in both normal and dimly lit scenarios without prematurely blown highlights or excessive noise, respectively. Nearly limitless lens options are available for the DSMC2 system. While this camera requires a separately available lens mount, DSMC lens mounts themselves are offered in different varieties for compatibility with a wide array of lens systems.
