Rogue Element Films will be pleased to annouce the availability of S.two’s innovative new product the OB-1™ on-board recorder with removable FlashMag™ solid-state magazines for Summer 2009.
The OB-1 sets new standards for size, weight, power consumption, performance and flexibility in an uncompressed recorder, including support for 3D (2 x 4:4:4 camera feeds, like Rogues upcoming 1500R Log image 3D units). It is designed to be mounted directly on new-generation digital film cameras such as Rogue’s Sony’s F23 and S35mm F35. The 8×5x4-inch unit weighs less than 6 pounds, records uncompressed 4:4:4 RGB as DPX frames direct to the flashmags from up to two cameras simultaneously, and requires less than 28 watts of camera power at 10 to 36VDC. The removable FlashMag media has a capacity of more than 30 minutes 4:4:4, incorporates multiple levels of internal redundancy, is hot-pluggable, and uses a connector rated for 100,000 insertions.
The FlashDock supports video and file-based (DPX) data transfers by incorporating multiple video and computer interfaces, including a colour touch-screen monitor. It can operate on 100-240VAC or 22-30VDC without external adapters, making it suitable for both Field and Studio use. An optional FlashDock Expansion Chassis supports multiple user-configurable peripheral devices such as LTO tape drives for completely self-contained backup and archival of data.
By offering the innovative S.two technology to our clients these pioneering products are the next logical step in tapeless and file based recording and workflow. The OB-1 and FlashMag products are supported by Rogue’s current S.two Corp docking stations, ingest telecine docking units and fully integrated data digtal film lab based at Elstree Studios.
