nanoFlash

The World’s Smallest Professional HD/SD Recorder/Player

nanoFlash is a portable HD/SD recorder/player designed to mount on a camcorder. It is also suited for use in a studio environment. The nanoFlash is designed to record higher quality images than the camera itself, using the camera’s HD-SDI/HDMI output. nanoFlash accepts an incoming HD/SD-SDI video signal, with embedded audio and timecode or an HDMI video and audio signal.

The nanoFlash records the video/audio as MPEG2 at user selected bit-rates. This allows the user to choose, for every shoot, an appropriate image quality, file size, and maximum available length of recording. The data is then stored on CompactFlash cards, in either native Quicktime or native MXF file formats. The nanoFlash uses 90% of the same code and components as the field-proven andaward-winning Flash XDR. nanoFlash customers will enjoy the benefits of all many hours debugging and testing the Flash XDR. nanoFlash can also be upgraded to become a full ASI encoder and decoder, an additional charge option. ASI is a streaming format used for live-news broadcast and DTV digital signage.
