Cinedeck is debuting a camera-mountable, HDMI/HDSDI recording, monitoring, playback and editing device.
Said to be designed by cinematographers for
cinematographers, Cinedeck is a portable, platformagnostic,
cinema-grade recording and monitoring system
for users of HDMI, HDSDI or LAN cameras.
Measuring 5 inches x 8 inches x 3.5 inches and weighing
less than 4 pounds, Cinedeck is camera-mountable and
stores (with all cables and accessories) in a space no larger
than a shoebox. The unit records from nearly any HDMI
or single/dual link HDSDI camera and source files are
platform agnostic — recording media compatible with
Mac, Windows or Linux. Support for a wide array of
codecs and file formats, including CineForm in both AVI/MOV wrappers, and Avid-compatible MXF.
Cinedeck is also demonstrating, in partnership
with CineForm, real-time 3D playout, showing how
cinematographers in the field shooting a 3D movie can view
content in full 3D in real time on the Cinedeck device.
