Nikon ZR Firmware 2.00 Adds R3D NE Focus Peaking, With Open Gate Recording Planned

William Faulkner 2 months ago 4 min read Nikon is preparing firmware version 2.00 for the Nikon ZR, bringing several video-focused improvements to the cinema camera. The update will add focus peaking during R3D NE recording, expanded H.265 color options and greater control over noise reduction, while Open Gate recording and anamorphic desqueeze support are being developed for a later firmware release. Nikon ZR Firmware 2.00 Expands H.265 Recording Options One of the major additions in firmware version 2.00 is support for Log3G10 and REDWideGamutRGB when recording in H.265. The combination is intended to provide filmmakers with relatively compact file sizes while maintaining substantial flexibility for color grading in post-production. It also expands the integration of RED-related imaging technology into Nikon’s ZR cinema workflow. The firmware will introduce a new option for selecting the level of High ISO Noise Reduction during H.265 Log recording.
