The Sony VENICE 6K is one of Sony’s flagship digital cinema cameras, prized for its full-frame 6K sensor, cinematic image quality, wide dynamic range, dual-base ISO, and flexible lens mount system. It’s a favourite for feature films, commercials, music videos, and high-end indie productions thanks to its exceptional colour science and professional workflow support. – Ontario Camera Rental
As the camera is a professional-grade tool, buying one outright can be prohibitively expensive for many productions. That’s where rentals come in — especially if you’re shooting in and around Toronto’s vibrant film community.
