CinePI V2 is an open-source cinema camera design built around a Raspberry Pi 4B and the Sony IMX477 High Quality Camera module, with CAD files and software for a DIY build. It records 12-bit CinemaDNG raw video to external SSD with a touchscreen interface, battery, RTC, and active cooling.
Use cases
- build your own cinema camera with a raspberry pi
- record raw CinemaDNG footage on a budget
- DIY Super8-style digital film camera
- customize a camera enclosure with included CAD files
- capture 12-bit raw video to an external SSD
When to choose
- you want an open, hackable cinema camera platform you can modify
- you're comfortable with soldering and hardware assembly
- you need raw CinemaDNG recording on a Raspberry Pi
When to avoid
- you want a plug-and-play consumer camera with no assembly
- you need professional cinema camera reliability or support
- you're unwilling to modify hardware or void warranties
