The Most Popular Camera For Network Series Production

So, what's the most popular electronic camera for television production?  You may be surprised.

You may be thinking the RED or the Alexa but after you think about it for a second, it will come to you.

The answer is Sony.  The F-35 is the most used and, if you add in the F-23 and F-900, Sony is the hands down leader.

Now that I think about it, all the video shows are probably all shot with Sony cameras, too.

Arri does come in second but more shows are shot with the D-21 than the Alexa, although that should change this year.

The Panavision Genesis, the precursor to the F-35, comes in third.

And the RED?  That's considered more of a "second" camera.

Of course, the favorite medium of most network television shows is still film but that changing, too.
