Now the release of SUP 9.1 maintains ARRI's commitment to the ALEXA as a sustainable long-term business model for camera owners.
SUP 9.1 brings high speed frame rates for DNxHD of up to 96 fps to ALEXA XT cameras and to ALEXA Classic cameras that have been upgraded with the XR Module. In addition, SUP 9.1 contains a number of refinements and bug fixes for all ALEXA cameras.
ARRIRAW Converter 3.0
ARRIRAW is an uncompressed, unencrypted and uncompromised file format popular for feature films and commercials. ARC 3.0 is the most current reference tool to show the highest quality debayer for ALEXA ARRIRAW files.
ARC 3.0 includes:
