Why Film Crews Love It

THE BIG SCREEN LOOK

Fat sensor makes backgrounds go soft while keeping subjects sharp

SQUEEZES INTO TIGHT SPOTS

Fits where bulky cameras can’t – tiny rooms, cars, narrow spaces

OLD-SCHOOL FILM FEEL

Makes digital footage look warm and rich like classic film stock

SLICK SLOW MOTION

Grabs up to 90 pictures each second for buttery slow shots

Who Uses This Thing

Movie people grab this camera when they need top-shelf image quality without lugging around a monster rig. It’s the go-to for cramped locations, handheld work, drone shots, and car scenes. You’ll spot it on film sets and TV shows where space is tight, but pictures must look stunning.

Plugs and Juice

It has all the hookups film folks need and uses the same batteries as the big cameras. One battery charge lasts for hours of filming.

Bottom Line

This box costs more than some cars but gets the job done when nothing else will fit. It shoots the same beautiful footage as the bigger ARRI cameras while slipping into spots they can’t go. The Mini LF rules the roost for tight spaces with no room to compromise on quality.
