Share this Post:

Building on the success of previous collaborations in the virtual production space, Sony Corporation has once again selected Brompton Technology’s Tessera LED processing to power the latest addition to its Crystal LED display portfolio – the new Capri series ZRD-VS25FB. Engineered to deliver Sony’s renowned visual performance with added flexibility and value, Capri brings high-end virtual production capabilities within reach of a broader range of users.

Targeted at a wide array of customers looking to support virtual production cost-effectively, Crystal LED Capri is a versatile solution designed to meet the needs of productions of all sizes. The new series delivers premium image quality using Brompton’s award-winning 4K Tessera SX40 LED processor, already a staple in Sony’s flagship Verona series, with seamless cross-compatibility between the two.

Featuring a 2.5mm pixel pitch, 1,500 nits of brightness, and refresh rates up to 7,680Hz, the Crystal LED Capri ZRD-VS25FB model delivers smooth, lifelike imagery ideal for in-camera VFX (ICVFX) across television, film, commercial shoots, broadcast, live events, and rental or staging applications.

Capri also complements Sony’s Verona series. Using the same controllers and featuring the same luminance as Verona allows the Capri LED wall to be used together with the Verona LED wall, for example, the Verona as the main wall and the Capri on the ceiling.

“With the launch of Capri , Sony is expanding its commitment to virtual production and spatial content creation by offering a more accessible solution that doesn’t compromise on image fidelity,” says Yasuharu Nomura, Senior General Manager, VP Technology & Services Business Division, New Contents Creation Business Unit, Sony Corporation. “By ensuring Capri works seamlessly with trusted platforms like Brompton Technology’s Tessera SX40, we’re giving more creators access to high-end tools while supporting efficient, flexible workflows.”

As part of Sony’s growing Virtual Production Tool Set, Capri supports tools like Color Calibrator and the Camera and Display Plugin, aiding with color matching and aliasing mitigation on set. The company’s upcoming Version 3.0 expected this autumn, will add real-time off-axis color shift compensation, a feature exclusive to Capri, Verona, and B-series models, further enhancing image fidelity during curved or angled installations.

“We’re delighted that Sony continues to trust Brompton’s LED processing in their next-generation display technologies,” concludes Elijah Ebo, Director of APAC Operations at Brompton Technology. “Capri is an exciting step forward, bringing cinematic-quality LED performance into reach for more productions than ever before. At Brompton, our FAE team is always ready to work closely with panel manufacturers to support optimal integration. That collaborative approach, paired with our focus on precision and flexibility, helps ensure the best possible experience for the users – whether it’s a major studio production or a fast-paced on-location shoot.”
