Specifications
Flagship Image Quality, Streamlined for Essentials
The V-RAPTOR XE 8K VV Camera from RED DIGITAL CINEMA delivers the 8K global shutter and compact design of the V-RAPTOR X, while focusing on the core features essential to modern filmmaking. Built on RED's DSMC3 platform, the XE provides a large-format VV sensor in a lightweight 4 lb body, capturing 8K video in up to 60 fps with 17+ stops of dynamic range. Balancing high-end performance with class-leading value, the XE omits advanced Global Vision features like Phantom Track and Extended Highlights, but retains the same image quality, workflow flexibility, and robust connectivity that define RED's V-RAPTOR line.

 

Filmmakers benefit from the global shutter, advanced autofocus with face detection, simultaneous ProRes proxy recording, and dual 12G-SDI outputs for discrete monitoring. Compact, rugged, and ready for a variety of rig configurations, the XE is a cost-effective solution for productions requiring RED's flagship sensor technology.

8K VV Sensor with Global Shutter
The 35.4MP large-format VV sensor features a global shutter, eliminating the artifacts produced by rolling shutters in scenes with rapid motion or flashing lights. The XE ensures distortion-free motion capture while maintaining full detail, contrast, and dynamic range across every frame. Providing a multitude of resolution and frame-rate options, the camera captures 17:9 footage up to 8192 x 4320 when utilizing its entire VV sensor.
  • 8K up to 60 fps
  • 6K up to 80 fps
  • 5K up to 96 fps
  • 4K up to 120 fps
  • 2K up to 240 fps
Intelligent Autofocus
Powered by in-camera processing, on-sensor phase detection, and advanced face detection, the V-RAPTOR XE provides all levels of filmmakers with precise, automatic focus control in a wide range of environments.
Dynamic Range
The V-RAPTOR XE delivers 17+ stops of dynamic range, with REDCODE Raw preserving fine detail in both extreme highlights and deep shadows. With class-leading performance in low light, the XE maintains saturation in shadows while reducing fixed pattern noise.
Flexible Video Recording
Sporting a single CFexpress Type B card slot, the XE records internally to a compatible media card with data rates topping out at 800 MB/s. With support for REDCODE Raw HQ recording, the XE ensures post-production flexibility for color grading, cropping, and visual effects. Simultaneous proxy recording and alternative format options ensure smooth integration with existing workflows.

 

  • R3D format ensures maximum latitude and post-production flexibility
  • Simultaneous ProRes proxy recording for a streamlined editorial process
  • Dedicated ProRes 4444 XQ recording up to 4K120
Built-In Controls and Monitoring
With multiple monitoring outputs and comprehensive on-body controls, the XE ensures efficient operation on set and in the field. Built into the right side of the camera, the control interface features a 2.4" LCD screen with easily navigable menus, providing an AC or camera operator with comprehensive control over in-camera format selection and other important functions. Dual 12G-SDI ports deliver unique monitoring views, while a USB-C port outputs data at up to 250 MB/s.
Advanced Connectivity
Supporting both wired and wireless IP connectivity, the XE allows cloud-based collaboration and app-based remote camera control. When used with RED's RF to PL Adapter with electronic ND filters, the XE allows ND strength to be continuously adjusted over Wi-Fi in fine increments of 1/100 of a stop.

 

  • Direct integration with Frame.io and AWS (Amazon Web Services)
  • Compatible with RED Control and RED Control Pro Apps for wireless monitoring and operation
  • Adjust camera settings from remote locations via Wi-Fi connection
Rugged DSMC3 Design
Sharing the same form factor as the V-RAPTOR X, the XE's lightweight 4 lb aluminum alloy body ensures durability without sacrificing mobility. Its advanced thermal management system maintains the camera's optimal internal temperature, preventing both overheating and overcooling.
RED DIGITAL CINEMA V-RAPTOR RF to PL Adapter with Electronic ND Filter Pack

The V-RAPTOR RF to PL Adapter with Electronic ND Filter Pack from RED DIGITAL CINEMA integrates the same precise electronic ND (neutral density) control used in the V-RAPTOR XL into a robust PL-mount solution for the RED V-RAPTOR.
Easy Exposure Control
This pack includes an RF to PL lens mount adapter, an electronic ND filter with a 2- to 7-stop range, and a clear filter to use with the mount adapter when an ND is not required.
