Choice of creative looks

ARRI cameras are renowned for making it easy to craft stunningly beautiful images and the ALEXA 35 Live provides all the common live production shading controls to continue this tradition into the live realm. But the system goes even further, with additional creative options that can quickly give any project a fresh look.

The built-in ARRI Look Library offers 87 cinematic looks that control color in three intensities and can be activated at the push of a button, catering to a huge variety of shooting scenarios. In addition, several specially developed Multicam looks provide time-saving presets for typical live production scenarios such as studios, concerts, or ski racing.

Real-time image control

Independent adjustments to the knee point and knee slope can be made from the RCP, as can continuous fine adjustment of the EI/gain setting, making it easier to match highlight roll-off and exposure levels for multiple cameras when switching between feeds. Look presets can also be switched instantly and automatically across groups of cameras, allowing real-time look changes during a live broadcast.

Live Integrations_3

Adjust individual hues without affecting other colors in the scene. This enables precise color matching between different camera channels, with color correction targeted to meet the specific needs of a production or location.

 

Multi-matrix

Streamline your workflow with pre‑installed Multicam user settings and extended “Scene File” support. These tools provide ready‑to‑use profiles and savable setups controlled from the RCP for rapid visual consistency across camera channels.

 

Easy setups

Connect your RCP to the Fiber Base Station, which automatically detects an ALEXA 35 camera head when it is set to DHCP. This saves time and allows easy swapping of Fiber Camera Adapters and camera heads between different base stations.

Zoom exposure compensation

EI/gain is automatically adjusted in relation to light loss across the focal length range of compatible ENG and box zoom lenses, maintaining stable exposure and depth of field.

Picture-in-picture tracking zoom

ALEXA 35 Live (2026 onwards) and ALEXA 35 Live Xtreme are now equipped with a unique picture-in-picture tracking zoom feature. Operators can select a face in the image via the Live Production Monitor LPM-1 and the system will automatically track that face, showing it in a zoomed-in overlay box at the corner of the frame. This makes it easier to maintain critical focus on the subject while remaining aware of the overall shot. Pre-2026 ALEXA 35 Live cameras can be equipped with this feature via a hardware upgrade.

Efficient in-camera recording

ALEXA 35 Live (2026 onwards) and ALEXA 35 Live Xtreme include ARRICORE, ARRI’s next-generation RGB codec. Delivering exceptional image quality at reduced data rates, ARRICORE is a great solution when recording the live output in-camera. For example at concerts, over 3 hrs of UHD 16:9 could be recorded at 24 fps without changing media card.

Live Production System LPS-1

The Live Production System LPS-1 consists of the Fiber Camera Adapter and the Fiber Base Station. They can be connected either with a hybrid fiber cable that delivers both power and uncompressed 4K video over distances up to 2 km, or with a tactical fiber cable up to 10 km in length. An extra fiber tunnel and Ethernet tunnel increase the system's flexibility with additional video, audio, or control signals.

Live Production Monitor LPM-1

The 10-inch LPM-1 provides a clear image in all conditions—even full sunlight—due to its display brightness of up to 1500 nits, wide viewing angle, accurate color rendition, and two sunhood options. Constructed from robust but lightweight aluminum, the monitor features a large, easy-grab handle for rapid repositioning.

Take full creative control

While the system is open to support any number of established remote control panels, the recommended tool of choice is the Skaarhoj RCP. It combines classical RCP handling with a powerful, fully customizable interface, making the most of ALEXA 35 Live’s exceptional image quality and offering additional creative possibilities.

Remote control, setup, configuration, and diagnostics

For fast setup and easy configuration, the ALEXA 35 Live - Multicam System is equipped with several carefully considered user interfaces, providing control when and where you need it. A jog wheel and display on both the Fiber Camera Adapter and the Fiber Base Station provide status display and allow on-the-spot adjustments, saving time and hassle. The ARRI Webremote allows full control of the camera, while a Multicam web interface provides full configuration of the Fiber Camera Adapter and Fiber Base Station, including signal routing, diagnostics, and software updates. The Skaarhoj Reactor web interface allows full control, configuration, and updating of the Skaarhoj RCP.

Bespoke Multicam accessories for live productions

The ALEXA 35 Live - Multicam System is available in different sets that meet the varied needs of customers. Multicam extension sets are also available for ALEXA 35 owners who want to expand into the live production market. A critical part of these sets are the many bespoke accessories that ARRI has created to tailor the system to different styles of live, multi-camera shooting.

Choose your set

ALEXA 35 Live is available in a range of modular system sets designed to meet different live‑production requirements, from compact entry configurations to fully featured broadcast setups. Customers can choose between Multicam System Sets that include the ALEXA 35 Live camera, or Extension Sets that expand existing systems with LPS‑1 hardware and accessories.

 

  • Multicam System Sets

    The Multicam System Entry, Standard, and Pro Sets provide ready‑to‑deploy camera packages tailored to different levels of production complexity — offering a scalable path into high‑end live workflows with optimized fiber connectivity and broadcast control. 
     

  • Multicam Extension Sets

    For productions that already own an ALEXA 35 Live camera, Extension Sets (Entry, Standard, and Pro) are available without a camera body, enabling flexible system expansion using LPS‑1 and additional accessories. This modular approach allows productions to select exactly the level of performance, connectivity, and redundancy required for their specific live environment.
