The New VENICE 2 Color Science – The Filmmakers React

Since its introduction, the VENICE cinema camera has become a standard tool for the world’s top filmmakers, used on more than 300 projects, including the Emmy-winning series The Crown and Paramount’s Top Gun: Maverick, coming in May 2022 and lensed by Claudio Miranda, ASC, who also tested VENICE 2 before the launch.

The VENICE 2 inherits popular features from the original VENICE including Dual Base ISO, 8-stops of built-in ND filters, and its color science. Indeed, when creating the original VENICE, Sony revamped their color science from previous cinema cameras. VENICE, and now VENICE 2, both feature the S-Log3 gamma curve and the ultra-wide color space, S-Gamut3. The original 6K sensor and the new 8.6K sensor both exceed the BT.2020 color space, and the cameras have a color range wider than DCI-P3 that allows VENICE and VENICE 2 to produce beautiful, filmic images with excellent color separation, shadow detail and smooth, natural skin tones under a wide range of lighting conditions.

Miranda noted that VENICE 2 maintains the high standards for color set by its predecessor, “The color feels beautiful, just as it does for VENICE 1. Skin tone, just as good. I’ve always found the skin tone on VENICE pretty amazing.”
