Atomos and Panasonic Create Solution, Allows for RAW Video from Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera
Atomos and Panasonic have created a solution that allows for RAW video from a full-frame mirrorless camera. The two companies have announced updates to the Ninja V HDR monitor-recorder and Panasonic LUMIX S1H that together record 5.9K Apple ProRes RAW files directly from the camera’s sensor.
The Ninja V captures detailed 12-bit RAW files from the S1H over HDMI at up to 5.9K/29.97p in full-frame or 4K/59.94p in Super35. These unprocessed files are extremely clean, preserving the maximum dynamic range, color accuracy and every detail from the S1H. The resulting ProRes RAW files allow for greater creativity in post-production with perfect skin tones and easily matched colors, ideal for both HDR and SDR (Rec.709) workflows.
Ninja V and S1H owners will gain these new RAW features free of charge. The Ninja V will be able to update by downloading and installing AtomOS 10.5 from the Atomos website. Panasonic will release a free firmware update on its LUMIX Global Customer Support website. Both updates will be available on May 25, 2020.
Here are the tech specs.
