1000Nits / cd/m2 Full Screen Brightness with deep blacks and wide colour gamut
NEON 17 is a precision on-set and in-studio HDR production monitor-recorders featuring 1000Nits fullscreen brightness, deep black with 0Nits and wide colour gamut DCI-P3 accuracy. Achieving a Dynamic Contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1 providing detail across both the shadows and spectacular highlights, allowing the brilliance of your production to truly shine.
Colour Managed Display Pipeline
The AtomHDR engine provides the ability to accurately manage your input and display Gamma/Gamut.
Selectable monitor modes allow you to work in either SDR or HDR settings, that match both camera acquisition settings, or defined delivery standards including Rec.709, Rec.2100 HLG or ST.2084 PQ. NEON 17 provides native accurate colour with 100% DCI-P3 coverage. Wide colour gamuts, such as BT.2020, are accurately processed by the AtomHDR engine to deliver consistent representations.
Built in transforms, allow for the conversion of LOG to HDR standards or utilise 3DLUTs for SDR, to monitor with a specified look or exposure compensation. Downstream outputs option also provides for conversion between standards to best suit the target display with options for SDR, LUTs or HDR.
Flexible and Upgradeable I/O
The foundation of the NEON platform is a modular approach that ensures the I/O of the monitor is both easy to maintain, replace and ultimately upgrade without having to take the panel out of commission. The Master Control Unit (MCU) is the brain of the NEON with support for HDMI 2.0 for both in and loop out, which provides support for video input at 4096 x 2160 4k DCI at up to 60p. The MCU firmware is easily upgradable and allows the upload and storage of up to 8 x 3D LUTs in its internal memory or can use a 2.5” HDD or SSD to store an unlimited library that can easily be uploaded to the NEON via the AtomOS APP on iOS. The MCU offers a second level of expansion via the Xpansion port and NEON includes the AtomX SDI module which provides 2 x 12G SDI. The configurable ports allow for input of up to 4k60p video with compatibility for single and dual link 1.5G/3G/6G or A / B inputs with the ability toggle between.
As standards and interfaces develop, both the MCU and Xpansion port modules can be changed and upgraded to meet your needs without needing to change the entire monitor.
- Analysis and Assist tools – The NEON tool set provides scope analysis for inputs whilst monitoring, recording or during file play back.
- Wave Form Monitors – offer Luma Parade, RGB parade, Vector Scope with Vector zoom to monitor levels.
- Pixel zoom – Allows operators to punch in to check shots for focus or aspects of the detail with pan and scan around the image.
- Focus peaking – with Colour, Mono and edges only enable easy focus pulls or shot selection.
- Adjustable Zebras and False colour provide exposure check and analysis
- Audio PPMs for all embedded channel with headphone monitoring of selected stereo pair. Additional input can be via 3.5mm jack located on the MCU.
Control
Built into NEON is Timecode Systems SYNC technology, providing the ability for remote operation of the NEON LE Bluetooth via Atom Remote OS from iOS and other devices. (An iOS Device REQUIRED to operate NEON)
Record and Playback modes
Connect cameras or any video source via SDI, supporting up to 4k DCI 60pvia 12G or Dual 6G or lower resolutions and frame rates via 1.5/3G SDI with up to 12 channels of embedded audio. Recordings can easily be played back and reviewed without needing to off load media or take the camera out of record mode.
HDMI signals without HDCP are supported up to 4k60p or HD 120fps with up to 8 channels of audio and detection of HDR info frame to automatically match the input signal type.
10bit 422 recordings are captured to industry standard Apple ProRes of Avid DNx Codec using Scene Shot Take file naming with rich metadata in the file header that can be utilized by your NLE or MAM system to asset orchestration.
To playback files recorded on the NEON on to SSD’s or SSD from other Atomos devices, place the SSD in to the MCU drive slot. Clips can also be exported directly from your NLE or transcoded to ProRes / DNX to be played back on the NEON.
Frame Guide and Anamorphic De-squeeze
A variety of broadcast frame guides with the option to EBU R5 Graphic and Action safe areas can be enabled. Cinematic guides are also available and can all be used alongside the anamorphic de-squeeze mode with support for 2x, 1.5x and 1.33x to allow you to match a wide variety of lenses.
