The Crystal LED Capri from Sony is its latest LED wall for virtual production, offering a maximum brightness of 1,500cd/sqm with a 2.50mm LED pitch size at a “more accessible price”.
It also boasts high refresh rates (up to 7,680Hz), a wide colour gamut (over 98% of the DCI-P3) and anti-reflection coatings, as well as installation flexibility, streamlined maintenance and compatibility with Sony’s ecosystem of virtual production technologies. The new models, ZRD-VS25FB and the ZRD-VS25FM, are compatible with the Brompton controller and the Megapixel controller, respectively.
Capri complements Sony’s flagship Crystal LED Verona series, using the same controllers and featuring the same luminance. This should maximise flexibility by allowing Capri to be used on the ceiling where Verona is the main wall.
Sebastian Leske, Head of Business Development, Sony Europe, said: “We’ve broadened our line up to offer more cost-conscious choices, which expand the market in support of high-quality virtual production at every level and ensure the growth of Sony’s distinctive virtual production ecosystem.”
