AJA Ki Pro: A revolution in production and post

Eliminate the cost and inconvenience of logging and capturing footage. The AJA Ki Pro is a tapeless video recording device that produces Apple ProRes 422 QuickTime files which are ready for immediate use within Final Cut Studio. Simply connect the media to a host computer and begin editing. Unify SD, 720 and 1080 cameras and formats with one superior 10-bit full-raster codec-Apple ProRes 422. Because it features SD/HD-SDI, HDMI, and analog inputs, you can interface with virtually any type of camera you might own or rent. Ki Pro features cross-conversion so you can have a 720p camera produce a 1080i recording to match your other camera... or vice versa. And if you've got high-quality SD cameras, Ki Pro can even help you extend their use since it also up-converts SD camera signals to HD recordings.

• No more digitizing
• No more worrying about which camera to use
• High-quality ready-to-edit video

Also, see how AJA’s full line of I/O cards, conversion and new router products can help fill in your production workflow gaps.

Also see the JVC GY-HM100U and GY-HM700U cameras

The GY-HM100 and GY-HM700 series cameras are the world’s first professional high definition cameras to utilize SDHC solid state memory. SDHC media provides affordable storage for ENG/EFP production with running costs similar to professional videotape. Recording at 35Mbs on a 16GB SDHC card provides 58 minutes of record
time. Typically a 16GB SDHC card will cost $28 or $0.48 per minute.

With running cost per minute this low it’s possible for producers to archive footage on the original SDHC card recorded in the camera.

Native File Recording

The GY-HM100 incorporates JVC's Native File Recording technology that stores video in the ready-to-edit format used by Apple's Final Cut Pro™ non-linear editing system. The ".mov" files created in the camera can be easily dragged onto the NLE timeline without conversion or rewrapping, saving time while keeping the recorded material first generation. There is no need to use an intermediate codec.

The camera can also store files in the ISO Base Media File Format (MPEG-2 Long GOP), compatible with all major non-linear editing systems. In this mode, the files and folders are recorded so that they can be easily accessed in the post production process.

The GY-HM100 records audio as uncompressed LPCM data in both Final Cut Pro™ and ISO formats.
