Product Features in Detail
Proven. Reliable.
More than just a monitor – Sumo 19 is the perfect tool to bridge your 4K HDR workflow across multiple cameras, audio and Atomos devices. Sumo 19 is a Monitor-Record-Switcher, and highly adaptable to suit multiple applications.
Unlock the true potential of your RAW cinema cameras with the Sumo 19. Preserve your sensor’s pristine pixels in ProRes RAW at up to 5.7kp30, 4kp120 DCI/UHD and 2kp240 DCI/HD. CDNG supports up to 4kp30 DCI. Sumo 19 is compatible with Sony FS series, Canon C300MKII/C500 or Panasonic EVA-1/Varicam LT and more.
Live Quad-channel HD Switching & Recording
Take full advantage of 4 x SDI inputs and let Sumo 19 step into the role of a large-format quadview live switcher and recorder on your multi-camera shoots. Record up to four 1080p60 streams simultaneously as separate ISOs while cueing and switching in real-time with a simple touch of the screen. Sumo 19 allows user to record a fifth ‘program’ channel of your switched feed. Display the resulting mixed output (via HDMI or SDI) live on set.
Switching is completely asynchronous, eliminating the need for expensive locked sources and allowing the use of more affordable cameras. You can easily output the switched feed for live streaming with a solution as simple as the Atomos Connect 4K.
For professional productions large and small you save significant space — replacing several boxes in your rack, or decks and monitors on your desk with a single Sumo 19.
