Real High Definition 2K Digital Cinema “Slumdog”* Camera Shoot.Edit.Deliver. Think Differently - Shoot RAW Why shoot your next production with a news camera on steroids, a heavily compressed HDV handycam best suited to shooting your kid’s birthday party or a camera that takes great stills but produces over compressed, line skipping video? Even if your spot doesn’t need to be finished in Cinema/HD resolution it can benefit from using this new form of image acquisition. Unlike modern HD video cameras which develop, compress and lock in the colorized imagery, the SI-2K camera system captures the full latitude of the scene in raw ‘digital negatives’. These are non-destructively developed and colorized for preview using the cinematographer's & director’s desired "look" for the scene. This colour metadata is encoded into platform agnostic and visually lossless CineForm RAW QuickTime or AVI files and can be modified at any time throughout the post process. These files can be edited directly in Apple Final Cut or Adobe Premiere Pro without the need for conversion or rendering. (Sounds complicated? - it all happens in the background while we concentrate on getting the great shots you need) The Silicon Imaging SI-2K Camera • Super 16 high speed film PL mount prime lenses T1.3 (also mount Nikon, C-mount or video B4 HD lenses with other P+S Technik IMS lens mounts available) • 2048 x 1152 pixel progressive Full Raster 12 bit imaging chip • Variable Frame Rates – 12-25fps @ 2K (16x9), 85fps @ 720p or 150fps @ “1/2 HD” 960x540 • Timelapse recording & stop motion recording • Full Raster 10 bit 4:4:4 RGB Visually Lossless Cineform RAW codec @ 3.5 to 1 compression or shoot fully uncompressed 12 bit • Detachable Mini Head you can place just about anywhere (quicker & safer vehicle rigs, body mounts, light weight jib arms, inside cars or other tight spaces) • 11 stops of dynamic range • Non-destructive looks with Iridas Speed Grade On Set – (don’t like the colour/contrast of your shots?
