The ARRI ALEXA Mini Camera
Rounding out the range of cinema cameras created by powerhouse ARRI. the Mini fits perfectly into underwater production by giving shooters a more compact compliment to their ARRI camera lineup. The ALEXA Mini features a carbon-fiber housing. integrated sealed electronics and both sensor and PL mounts made from titanium.
The Mini can record ProRes at 200fps or Uncompressed ARRIRAW at 30fps to on-board CFast 2.0 memory cards. The lens mount can be changed between PL. B4 and Canon EF.
The Nauticam Digital Cinema System for ARRI ALEXA Mini
The Alexa Mini is ideal for use on drones. gimbals. and integrates perfectly into the Nauticam Cinema System. The 4:3 Alexa sensor. complete with anamorphic de-squeeze. ArriRAW. and ProRes recording in camera to CFast 2.0 cards in an underwater system captures footage that cuts seamlessly with other Alexa cameras on set. with the same workflow.
Easy Camera Prep
Designed with both owner/operator and rental markets in mind. the Nauticam system is very easy to set up. Armed with only a coin and a #3 allen wrench. the entire support and lens control system is constructed on the camera base plate outside of the housing. This means the rig can be built on a table. in good light. with plenty of working space. Once the camera is assembled on its tray. the entire system slides into the housing. and locks securely in place.
Optically-Coated Glass Dome Port
Our exclusive 250mm optically coated glass dome port is supplied with every system. and we believe it is the best optic available for cinema lenses. The 250mm dome port diameter – 10 inches – is a key for good wide angle imaging performance with many cinema lenses underwater. Smaller domes can work well with close focusing SLR lenses. but many cinema lenses have a longer minimum focus distance in the .35-.40m (14-16″) range. Using Arri Master Prime T1.4/14mm. with its .4m MFD as an example. the 250mm dome provides clearly superior results. with much less corner softness than smaller domes. This is the very same dome used in the optical system designed in conjunction with HydroFlex for Alexa65. and used on feature film productions. The glass dome is rugged. and extremely resistant to scratching. Broadband Anti-Reflective Coatings eliminate flare. reflections. and ghosting from the port optic. A robust machined aluminum shade protects the dome. and provides additional flare resistance.
Battery Configurations
The housing ships with an Anton Bauer Gold Mount battery plate and LEMO connector for the Alexa Mini camera. Ample space is available for a range of battery pack sizes to be used in the housing. providing long operation times. Surface suppled power is also an option for for tethered all day shooting.
Weight & Trim Bracket
A sliding weight bracket allows front-back trim to be adjusted dynamically in water. providing a natural port up or port down position as needed. The bracket accepts readily available dive weights. easily sourced on location. Additional trim weights can be attached to the housing skids. or to trim weight mounting locations strategically placed on the inside of the housing. to dial in neutral buoyancy and left-right balance.
