About CINE Files

A .cine file is a video saved in the Phantom Digital Video (CINE) format, a proprietary format Vision Research developed for use with Phantom high-speed cameras. CINE files typically store uncompressed or lightly compressed high-frame-rate video, making them ideal for capturing slow-motion footage and precise motion analysis, which is critical for scientific, industrial, and cinematic applications.

You may encounter .cine files when working with footage from Phantom cameras, analyzing high-speed experiments, or reviewing slow-motion video for research, engineering, or filmmaking purposes. Professionals in fields such as biomechanics, automotive testing, ballistics, and high-speed cinematography frequently use these files. Since CINE files contain high-resolution, high-frame-rate data, most standard media players cannot open them directly, but you can open and play .cine files on FileHelper.com by dragging them to this page, and you can convert them to various formats.
