Using the C300 with the AJA Ki Pro Mini

Using the C300 with the AJA Ki Pro Mini:

Recently, a colleague of mine asked about how to set up the Ki Pro Mini for use with the Canon C300. With the latest firmware (v3.0), the Ki Pro Mini can be triggered to record via the C300, as well as record in 24p (23.976 to be exact). The C300 does not output 23.98 progressively or in PsF, instead it adds pull-down for a 59.94 interlaced output. This is fine for monitoring, but for external recording, a 2-3 pull-down removal is preferred. The Ki Pro Mini isn’t usually able to remove pull-down, but with the C300 it can. In the manual for the Ki Pro Mini it explains how to do this, but it can still be a bit confusing. Here are the steps to get the C300 and Ki Pro Mini working together.

רשימה של כרטיסים של AJA שכרגע עובדים עם MC6

נראה שכל הכרטיסים של AJA כרגע עובדים עם MC6 על פיסי ומק, חוץ מioXT.

בלינק המצורף נמצאים כל הדרייברים להורדה.

אז עכשיו אביד יודע לעבוד בדגימה של 4:4:4 (RGB מלא) אבל עדיין לא מסוגל להוציא רזלוצייה גבוהה יותר מHD. הכרטיסים של AJA (ובלקמג'יק ובלופיש) יודעים להוציא 2K ו4K ב4:4:4

כדי לכבוש את עולם הקולנוע, ולהשוות פיצ'רים של פרמייר ואפילו פיינל קאט היישן, אביד יצטרכו להעלות את הרזולוציה ולאפשר לעבוד ולסיים - לעשות מאסטרינג, לפחות ב2K וב4:4:4.
