ARRI ALEXA Mini LF
The default A-camera on most modern tentpoles — a compact full-frame ALEXA body weighing 2.6 kg with the same LogC3 color science as the larger ALEXA LF, in a chassis small enough for handheld and Steadicam.
About
ARRI ALEXA Mini LF
The ALEXA Mini LF replaced the Super-35 ALEXA Mini in 2019 with an LPL mount, a 4.5K Open Gate 36.7×25.5 mm sensor, and built-in motorised IRND. The body shares its color science across the full ALEXA family, so a Mini LF unit can intercut with an ALEXA 65 or LF without grading drift.

Compatibility
PL-to-LPL and EF-to-LPL adapters ship from ARRI; both maintain electronic /i metadata and infinity focus. The LDS-2 protocol on LPL also exposes lens metadata to the body for shading and distortion correction in post.
