Introducing the revolutionary Ki Pro. One workflow from lens to post, Ki Pro is a portable, stand alone tapeless video device that records files to the Apple ProRes codec directly from virtually any camera. Ki Pro provides a new way of connecting production and post; any video and audio source can be fed into Ki Pro to record pristine 10 bit 4:2:2 HD/SD ProRes files. Removeable Ki Pro Storage media is then immediately available to edit within Apple's Final Cut Studio. Extensive analogue and digital connectivity, and AJA's unparralleled 10 bit up/down/cross conversion, ensure you will be able to interface to whatever camera.

Hardware up-conversion - 10-bit
Anamorphic: full-screen
Pillar box 4:3: results in a 4:3 image in center
of screen with black sidebars
Zoom 14:9: results in a 4:3 image zoomed
slightly to fill a 14:9 image with black side bars
Zoom Letterbox: image zoomed to fill screen
Zoom Wide: combination of zoom and horizontal
stretch to fill 16:9 screen; this setting can introduce a
small aspect ratio change
Hardware down-conversion - 10-bit
Anamorphic: full-screen
Letterbox: image is reduced with black top and bottom
added to image area with the aspect ratio preserved
Crop: image is cropped to fit new screen size
Hardware cross-conversion - 10-bit
1080i to 720P
720P to 1080i
720P to 1080PsF
SD to SD aspect ratio conversion
Letterbox: transforms SD anamorphic to a letterboxed
image.
H Crop: produces a horiztonally stretched effect on the
image; transforms anamorphic SD to full frame.
SD Pillarbox: produces image in screen center with
black borders on left and right sides and an
anamorphized image in the center.
V Crop; transforms SD letterbox material to an
anamorphic image.
