Introduced as a brand new category of devices and, according to Atomos, “shaping up to be one of the most in-demand products of 2017”, one that will redefine the workflow options for video creatives, its first production/studio monitor to combine a 19” HDR 1200nit 10+ stop panel with 4K 12bit Raw or 10bit 422 ProRes/DNxHR recording and HD recording up to 240p or live switching and recording of four 1080p60 channels.
