AJA Unveils CION Adobe Support

AJA Video Systems revealed at IBC2014 that its new Raw CION camera format will soon be supported in Adobe Premiere Pro CC. AJA Raw support is enabled through the Cinema DNG format.

"The reliability and performance of AJA’s products on the video/audio I/O, recording and digital workflow end of things are well established, and we’re excited to see them enter into the camera market with CION," said Simon Williams, director of strategic relations at Adobe. "Now creative pros will have an even more powerful workflow with the support of the AJA Raw CION camera format in Adobe Premiere Pro CC."
"We’re thrilled that out of the gates, CION customers shooting AJA Raw will have an NLE workflow supported in Adobe Premiere Pro CC," said Nick Rashby, President, AJA Video Systems. "While CION enables a multitude of ProRes codec choices, and other direct-to-edit workflow options, customers who will want the ultimate in color range and flexibility may choose to work with AJA Raw files in Adobe Premiere Pro CC."
At IBC, Adobe previewed new updates for the Creative Cloud video apps, including Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe After Effects CC. New advances include timesaving media and project management features, and a new user interface with HiDPI support across all video desktop apps.
AJA’s CION is a new ergonomic professional production camera, capable of shooting at 4K/UltraHD and 2K/HD resolutions. Launched at NAB2014, CION offers in-camera recording directly to the Apple ProRes family of codecs including ProRes 4444, and ProRes 422 up to 4K 60 fps, and offers the ability to output 4K AJA Raw data at up to 120 fps via 4x 3G-SDI outputs.
