Atomos Demos Shogun At CCW

Atomos has announced that the 4K Shogun has completed its first production run and is being demonstrated at the CCW Expo in New York.

From today up to December 31 2014, customers will receive 50% off the usual price of the Atomos 64GB CFast card when purchased with a Ninja Star.

"The wait is over for thousands of video professionals," said Jeromy Young, CEO and co-founder of Atomos. "Having been at the factory personally to oversee the production and testing of our first Shogun units, I can assure the world that the final product will exceed already high expectations."

According to Atomos, the Shogun features the following accolades:

• First 4K/HD monitor/recorder with 12G SDI & 4K HDMI connections
• First 4K/HD monitor/recorder with SDI to HDMI & HDMI to SDI conversion
• First 4K/HD monitor/recorder with a truly pro monitor pixel density in excess of 300ppi
• First 4K/HD monitor/recorder with balanced XLR audio in/out

New monitoring features like 2:1 zoom and a host of layout improvements are designed to make camera setup, shot setup and work in post production easier.

The Shogun records all content to 4:2:2 10-bit, giving the user the choice of HQ/422/LT bit rates, ability to create Favorite/Reject XML file markers and (unlike other ProRes monitor/recorders on the market) not restricted by file size limits in the recording (e.g. 4GB or 2.5min).

It features a 1920×1200 SuperAtom IPS 7" touchscreen at 325 PPI and 178 degree viewing and 400nit brightness and multi-frequency (48/50/60Hz) operation, depending on video input. The Shogun also has genlock-in for synced recording and playout. The included Lemo breakout cable for XLR Audio gives balanced audio, mic and Phantom power.

Atomos can be found on booth 901 at CCW Expo 12-13 November, Javits Convention Centre, New York. For show details see:
