Two years ago, Atomos launched the AtomX Cast (buy here). Essentially, it’s an add-on for your Atomos Ninja V (buy here) or Ninja V+ (buy here) that turns it into a live-streaming video switcher. It allows you to feed four HDMI sources into it, with buttons to switch from one camera to another. It provides many of the usual live stream switcher features and lets you stream to your PC via USB or to another device over HDMI.

Now, Atomos has announced the new Ninja Cast Desktop Software, giving full control over your AtomX Cast from your computer. It’s available for both Windows and macOS and provides easy access to all of the buttons and settings you’re able to adjust on the unit itself. Any changes made to either the AtomX Cast or your desktop are immediately reflected in the other.

Panasonic has officially announced its raw video features for the Panasonic S5 IIX (buy here). As expected, there’s no raw recording internally, with both ProRes RAW and Blackmagic RAW support being provided by external recorders using raw over HDMI output. Raw support was always expected to come to the Panasonic S5 IIX, but it wasn’t confirmed at the time of the product announcement

Now, it appears to be available with the camera supporting both formats through external monitor recorders from Atomos and Blackmagic. Panasonic has also announced that a firmware update will also be coming in June for the Panasonic S5 II to add Blackmagic RAW support using raw over HDMI with the Blackmagic Video Assist 12G HDR.

Well, this is an interesting one. Atomos, largely famous for its monitor/recorder systems is getting into camera sensors. Atomos has announced that it has completed the development of a new “world class 8K video sensor” designed for cinema cameras to shoot 8K content. Atomos hasn’t released much information about the sensor, but they say they are in talks with several camera manufacturers.

It’s an interesting move, for sure, but it’s one that’s been in the works for a long time. Atomos acquired the intellectual property rights and the technical team from broadcast equipment firm, Grass Valley five years ago. The goal of that acquisition seems to have been specifically to “develop a leading-edge 8K video sensor”. The press release reads as follows:

Panasonic adds 5.7K RAW over HDMI and internal 4K 60fps ProRes 422 HQ recording to the Panasonic GH6

Panasonic has announced a major firmware update for the Panasonic GH6. The new Version 2.0 firmware adds a couple of features that customers have been asking for since the camera was first announced. Namely, 4K 60fps ProRes 422 HQ capture internally as well as full resolution 5.7K and 4K DCI RAW over HDMI output at 60fps and 120fps respectively. And for anamorphic shooters, you also get 5.8K and 4.4K RAW over HDMI.

For 5.7K video, you get up to 60fps and for 4K, you get up to 120fps raw over HDMI. For anamorphic, it’s half that rate. So, 5.8K goes up to 30fps while 4.4K is limited to 60fps. Naturally, you’ll need an external recorder capable of capturing these framerates and resolutions, which means the Atomos Ninja V or Ninja V+ devices if you want to record ProRes RAW.
