Broadfield Distributing met with Atomos at their booth at the Photo Plus Expo in New York last week. Roger Cheow Account Manager showed us around the booth and introduced the new and exciting Shogun Inferno.
Atomos, the Melbourne-based maker of 4K HDR recorder/monitors and the popular Ninja series of pocket-sized ProRes and DNxHD recorder/monitors, is now shipping its 10-bit 4K 60p HDR Shogun Inferno field monitor for a list price of $1,995.
Monitoring and digital-disk capture continue to merge as the new 7″ calibrated Shogun Inferno monitor from Atomos begins shipping. First announced at NAB, the Shogun Inferno will record a variety of 4K formats at up to 60p on the 1500-nit brightness monitor.
The award winning Shogun Inferno – the world’s most advanced monitor recorder – is now shipping, ushering in the exciting new era of 4K 60p HDR filmmaking.
“We are selling tomorrow’s 4K 60p HDR technology, today – future-proofing productions at price points that every filmmaker can afford”, said Jeromy Young, CEO and Co-founder of Atomos, “We can’t wait to see the wave of creativity that results from the arsenal of technology we’ve assembled in the Inferno”.
