Who Picks This Camera

The XT Plus is used on high-end ad shoots, TV shows, and films where crews want top image quality and a clean, simple setup. It’s for pros who shoot raw but hate extra boxes and cables hanging off their rig.

Bottom Line

The ALEXA XT Plus may not be the newest ARRI on the block, but its built-in raw recording still makes it a smart pick for many shoots. The “eXtended Technology” in the name means you get more in one box, with fewer add-ons to buy, rent, or break. For crews who want to keep things neat but still get that famous ARRI look, the XT Plus hits the sweet spot between features and fuss.
