Sony VENICE 2 Extension System Mini

Increase your pro cine-style capture mobility and ease of use with the E and PL-mount VENICE 2 Extension System Mini from Sony. Compatible with VENICE 2 8K and 6K cameras, this 8.6K mini successor to the Rialto sensor block extension is super compact and lightweight, letting you position your camera in the tightest setups.

This extension is built around the same full-frame 8.8K sensor found in the VENICE 2 8K camera. Its compatibility with both the VENICE 2 8K and VENICE 2 6K means existing VENICE 2 6K owners can now access 8.6K capture with the v4.0 firmware update.

The VENICE 2 firmware v.4.0, scheduled for release in August of 2025, will be required to use the Extension System Mini.

The mini extension system features a 14.8' detachable cable for transmitting video and metadata, letting you first easily position it in your setup and then connect it to your camera body. An optional 39.3' cable is available separately.

Quickly control your exposure using the included drop-in ND filter system. The included nine-filter set comprises clear, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2,1.5, 1.8, 2.1, and 2.4 gradations with additional filters available separately.

The PL-mount lens mount adapter supports Cooke /i protocol metadata and the import of external lens data.

Two user-assignable buttons provide quick access to key camera functions like run/stop and false color and light up when in use.

This Sony E-mount extension includes an ARRI PL adapter, letting you use a wide array of lenses. Rear flange adjustment is supported for fine-tuning select lenses.

Use two VENICE 2 cameras and mini extensions to capture stereoscopic images for an immersive, more natural-looking experience.

This compact, lightweight system is ideal for creating a VFX or virtual production background rig using multiple extension units for 360° capture.
