HDR-80 is a ProRes 4K recorders that record video on two SSD hard drives.  It is a desk top model meant to be used on a table top. The recorder has a high resolution 5” LCD touch screen on the front for video monitoring, device settings and configuration.

HDR-80 is able to record video in resolutions up to 2160p 60 using the available SDI and HDMI interfaces at the back. SDI is available in bitrates all the way from HD up to 12G-SDI while HDMI connections support both HDMI 2.0 and 1.4 technology. With multiple HDMI and SDI inputs you can also record up to four 1080p sources at the same time.

Dual SSD drives ensure sufficient storage for long duration recording. As one disk fills up, the recording automatically continue on the next disk. It’s easy to expand video storage by swapping a single disk.

Compressed videos are saved on two 2.5″ SSD D. If one disk is full, the recording will automatically continue on the second disk. It’s easy to expand storage for continuous recording.

The 4K recorders use a 10-bit ProRes 422 compressed codec for recording UHD 4K videos. Apple ProRes, a codec technology developed for high-quality, high-performance editing in Final Cut Pro X, is one of the most popular codecs in professional post-production.

The recorder has a high resolution 5” LCD touch screen on the front for video monitoring, device settings, and configuration. The monitor also provides a complete suite of scopes and calibration tools such as waveform, vectorscope, focus peaking to ensure perfect recording.

Zebra pattern is a feature that overlays some stripes onto the image that indicate exposure levels. Areas that are close to overexposure will be laid a striped pattern acting as a warning indicator to the user that the highlights are blown out and not recorded and the user should adjust the exposure accordingly. The zebra function is a very useful feature in checking the amount of brightness to which the subject has been exposed.

The three input setups are designed for 3G ISO recording and HD replay.

With closed caption support, embedded captions on SDI inputs can be encoded as metadata in recorded .mov files.
