Origin's frame-transfer CCD is the best cinematography sensor in the world, offering four times the resolution of "Hi-Def." But more importantly, it provides all the exposure latitude of the best film stocks, with more than 12 stops of linear response.

The camera has not grown from "videocam" roots. It uses standard 35mm cinematography lenses allowing cinematographers to create the depth of field and focus effects they want; it also uses an optical viewing system so operators can actually keep that focus and see the effects.

Origin offers multiple output options for compatibility with with the industry's best digital postproduction tools and workflows, both existing 2K systems and evolving 4K infrastructures. With support from infrastructure leaders, our 4K format not only works for today, it represents an ideal archival-quality master that allows your original vision to move easily to whatever new postproduction or display standards emerge in the years to come.

The DALSA Origin camera provides cinematographers and the industry the power to stop worrying about technological limitations and focus on the art of cinematography.
