EPIC > ProRes via AJA KiPro Mini

[Mark L. Pederson]

New firmware for your AJA KiPro Mini.

One cable - SDI (or wireless w/ BOXX).

Auto start/stop.

Filenames & Timecode recorded same as R3D.

Thank you AJA - it's about time :)

Can you generate proper slowmo prores footage eg.300fps with this box ?

you'll have to record to internal ssd first and than play out over sdi to record. unfortunately epic has no internal playback at the moment, you could always do it out of a rocket.

Ah I see, thx for clarification tom. I was thinking live record during take, one straight to ssd and the other one via hd-sdi. I guess the only way to record proper slowmo is after the recording.

embedded audio via SDI also?

that's coming on the epic side.

Deanan any wild estimates regards playback on the Epic? Without it, the Ki Pro mini is only half a solution (glass half full, not empty) as it's only really good for shots taken at the base frame rate.

I wouldn't agree with that assessment. KiPro plus epic is very powerful for many situations. Playback is a side effect.

Of course, playback is #1 on the priority list currently.

Finally happened, thanks AJA, also to RED team...!!!

The next step should be HDMI out to Ninja or similar BM lightweight SSD HDMI recorders...

I'd say that with this kind of third party solution maybe a "wireless module" is more important than a "proxy module". The key Pro records everything just about any NLE can handle and with TC support it's a great solution.

A "wireless module", somthing that distributes a low rez image stream from the camera around the set (or to a director/producer/VFX house/ etc half a world away who can't be on set). That would be pretty slick.


Maybe much more handy than a proxy module.
