Many people asked me what are the differences between the Alexa and the Alexa Studio?

Mainly, there are three, according to Arri, that justify the double price:

1. Studio has an Optical Viewfinder

2. Studio has a Mechanical Shutter

THIS IS THE SEXIEST THING IN THE WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD FOR AS LOW AS ABOUT 93 000$

A 35 format film-style digital camera with an optical viewfinder, 4:3 active sensor area and built-in Lens Data System. Electronic viewfinder EVF-1 (not included) can be used instead of optical viewfinder. Outputs HD-SDI or ARRIRAW T-link on BNC connectors. Can record QuickTime ProRes 4444, ProRes 422 (HQ), ProRes 422, ProRes 422 (LT) and ProRes 422 (Proxy) files onto SxS PRO cards. Frame rate: 0.75 to 120 fps. Exposure through electronically controlled physical mirror shutter (11.2° - 180.0°) or electronic rolling shutter: 5.0° - 358.0°. Real-time wireless lens control and REC support with the ARRI Wireless Remote System (WRS), built-in 3D lens synchronization, motion sensors and quick switch BNC connectors.
