AJA Video Systems has introduced the Ki Pro Mini, a smaller, lighter version of its portable tapeless recorder that captures to the Apple ProRes 422 codec directly from a camera.

The flash disk recorder mounts on to digital cameras and accessories, enabling it to fit unobtrusively into small spaces for on-set capture of 10-bit 4:2:2 files that are immediately ready for editing.

AJA president Nick Rashby said: “It’s smaller than some battery packs and mounts to virtually everything. We designed Ki Pro Mini for any sized production that needs seamless 10-bit file-based acquisition - it’s about extreme portability and going from lens to post in a flash.”

Ki Pro Mini supports SDI and HDMI cameras, records to Compact Flash cards and features 2 channels of XLR audio.
