    Capture colour and low light as never before

    ME20F-SH

    Shoot with maximum light-gathering ability

    A special, newly developed full-frame 35mm 2.26 Megapixel CMOS sensor is designed specifically for low light video capture. With larger pixel sizes the sensor maximises light-gathering capabilities to deliver ultra low light images with low noise.

    Film at over ISO 4 million

    Thanks to a maximum ISO in excess of an unparalleled 4 million (+75dB) the ME20F-SH can see and shoot in almost complete darkness at less than 0.0005 lux. In other words you can shoot a night sky with confidence even when it’s lit purely by starlight (with an f/1.2 lens at 29.97p and maximum gain).
