With the internal RAW upgrade, it’s Super35 Exmor CMOS sensor is capable of going 4K at 3840 x 2160, but is still a viable option for doing 1920x1080.

Don was great to rent to! He was really friendly and super pro. He was on time for pick up and drop off and took good care of my gear. I'd definitely rent to him again.
