No longer a rumor, the Nexus G1’s modular design and adaptive lens mount is what happens when filmmakers make cameras

The Nexus G1 cinema camera with a lens and external monitor sits against a blue background.

When a teaser video of a new boxy 6K cinema camera called the Nexus G1 hit the web last year, many were quick to question if the camera was in fact real. But start-up Nexus Camera has officially unveiled details on the Nexus G1, a long list that includes a number of modular features from multiple storage and battery options to even the ability to use multiple lens mounts. The company calls the G1 a cinema camera with “unparalleled usability designed by filmmakers for filmmakers.”

As teased last year, the Nexus G1 is built around the Black Magic 6K Super 35 Raw imaging system, giving the cinema camera a 6K full-frame sensor with dual gain ISO and up to 13.4 stops of dynamic range. The camera can record in Blackmagic BRAW (6K, 50fps) or Apple ProRes (4K, 60fps).
