Sony FS5 II Now Supports Apple ProRes RAW

News Image
Atomos has announced that the Sony FS5 II with the Shogun Inferno 7" HDR monitor/recorder now supports Apple ProRes RAW.

There are now nine ProRes compatible cinema cameras enabled by Atomos.

The FS5 II also works with the Atomos Sumo19 production monitor/recorder.

Atomos monitor/recorders are currently the only ProRes RAW recording solutions for cinema cameras, including the FS5 II.

The FS5 II will come equipped with FS-RAW output over SDI as standard (originally a paid-for option on the FS5). Atomos will be able to record ProRes RAW, ProRes, DNxHR and CDNG formats from this output as soon as the camera is available.

The FS5 II with Shogun Inferno can shoot ProRes RAW at up to 4Kp60 continuously, or 4Kp120 burst and 2kp240 DCI/HD for jaw-dropping high-speed filming. In addition, it can record 10-bit 4:2:2 video in ProRes or DNxHR codecs at up to 4Kp60 or 2Kp240 continuous.

The FS5 II has many of Sony's other latest innovations, such as a Super35 sensor with wide dynamic range suitable for HDR, electronic variable ND filters and a Sony E-mount for access to the widest range of lenses. It also features Hybrid Log Gamma and BT.2020 output for quick and easy HDR recording and playback using compatible Atomos monitor/recorders.

The Sony FS5 and FS5 II are on the Atomos Booth, C9435, at NAB 2018 in Las Vegas (07-12 April).
