The Phantom v641 achieves 6 Gpx/sec with a 4Mpx sensor, reaching up to 219,000 fps at reduced resolutions. It is compatible with the Phantom CineMag II, and records directly into the CineMag at up to 195 fps at full resolution.

The v641 comes equipped with many Phantom Features to meet a wide variety of applications. It has a standard Nikon lens mount, and is compatible with PL, C, and Canon EF lens mounts. For applications where the camera is not easily accessible, the Canon lens mount offers electronic control of both aperture and focus, and the camera’s mechanical shutter for automatic and remote Current Reference Sessions (CSR) greatly enhances ease of use.
