Exceptional Creativity and Enhanced Imaging Features

The VariCam 3700 features CineGamma? function, which gives images the prized film-look legendary to the VariCam. Inheriting the impressive dynamic range, color space and depth field of the original VariCam, the 3700 model adds several new gamma settings and image-enhancing functions, including an enhanced Film-Rec 600% setting, which provides additional latitude. For greater flexibility, the VariCam 3700 offers Dynamic Range Stretch (reduces blocked shadows and blown highlights) and Chromatic Aberration Correction (compensates for color deficiencies found in lens).

Offering variable frame rate recording in single frame increments from 1fps to 30fps, the VariCam 3700 makes techniques like overcranking and undercranking simple. Because each frame is stored without any pulldown or duplication, slow and fast motion footage can be played back immediately (no need for frame rate conversion in post).

Enhanced Digital Cinema Workflow with Solid-State Reliability

The VariCam 3700 brings a fast, proven, AVC-Intra and DVCPRO-HD nonlinear workflow to your high-end cinema production. The solid-state P2 workflow provides immediate access to recorded video and metadata (no need to digitize), including the ability to view content on the spot as thumbnail clips on the camera's LCD monitor for instant, on-set playback. Unlike tape, P2 cards are reusable without loss of quality, eliminating the need for continuous tape budgets and decks. With five 64GB P2 cards installed the VariCam 3700 can record more than 6 hours of master-quality 1080/24p content. With a 10-pound body, VariCam 3700 gives you the flexibility to transition quickly from digital cinema applications to "run-and-gun" style EFP shooting, while maintaining cinematic image quality.
