Description

The Atomos Sumo 19″ HDR Monitor/Recorder is a professional large-format production monitor designed for demanding film, television, live production, studio, and event applications.

Professional Monitoring

The Sumo’s 19-inch screen provides substantially more viewing space than traditional on-camera monitors. This makes it easier for directors, cinematographers, focus pullers, clients, and production staff to evaluate the image from a comfortable viewing distance.

The monitor is well suited for checking:

• Composition and framing
• Focus
• Exposure
• Highlight and shadow detail
• Color
• Skin tones
• HDR imagery
• Camera feeds during multi-camera productions

HDR Workflow

The Sumo is designed for modern HDR production workflows, allowing crews to evaluate a wider range of brightness and image information compared with conventional SDR monitoring.

This makes it particularly useful for cinema, commercial, television, documentary, and high-end production environments where accurate image evaluation is important.

Recording Capabilities

In addition to monitoring, the Sumo can be incorporated into a professional recording workflow. This allows production teams to capture high-quality video directly from compatible camera sources rather than relying solely on the camera’s internal recording system.

The recorder can be useful for:

• External camera recording
• Production backups
• Master recording workflows
• Live production recording
• Studio recording
• Multi-camera production
• Post-production and DIT workflows

The Atomos Sumo 19″ is an excellent choice for:

• Film & Cinema Production
• Television Production
• Commercial & Corporate Video
• Live Events & Concerts
• Interviews & Talk Shows
• Studio Production

Why Rent the Atomos Sumo 19″?

The Sumo 19″ provides the benefits of a professional Atomos monitoring and recording system in a large-format display that is much easier for multiple crew members to view simultaneously.
