Security
In security applications a wide angle lens on a 4K camera can mean a single camera replaces the equivalent of 4 x HD cameras. The Studio Shogun, with its long record time, time lapse, record scheduling and monitor zoom capability makes it the perfect weapon for 4K security applications.
In ProRes LT at 25 FPS the Shogun Studio can record 6 hours of Ultra High Definition 4K per channel, this not only provides superior resolution but also an increase in the number of frames captured per second providing a more finite approach to high resolution security recording. In applications where the additional frames aren’t important, the time lapse functionality can be set up to record specific frames at specific points over a specified duration. All of this can be reviewed on the dual 7.1″ Full HD monitors and easily zoomed in for closer inspection of areas of interest.
