It recently became known that Atomos is developing its own
![]() The Atomos sensor in full-frame format (8,192 x 4,320 pixels / 17×9) is supposed to be able to deliver 8K with up to 60fps with a global shutter readout and be very energy-efficient (2W at 8K), which means it consumes little power and generates correspondingly little heat. In addition, it is supposed to offer a high dynamic range despite the global shutter - Atomos mentions 15 f-stops; even if the manufacturer&s specifications are always to be taken with a grain of salt, that is a proud claim. Phase detection autofocus and HDR capabilities Originally, the sensor was supposed to be part of an Atomos camera, according to Elbourne, but the development took longer than planned (Apertus can tell you a thing or two about that) and the market seemed to be saturated in the targeted segment at a certain point, not least because of Blackmagic. Instead, it was decided to bring only the sensor to market, in order to offer other camera manufacturers a new option besides the Sony sensors that are often used. We are very curious to see who will take up this offer and whether Atomos will really succeed in shaking up the market - and last but not least, of course, whether the sensor will be able to meet the high expectations that have been raised here. ![]() deutsche Version dieser Seite: Der Atomos 8K-Sensor sorgt für Wirbel: Global Shutter, hohe Dynamik und geringer Stromverbrauch |
