Codex Portable

Introducing The Portable - our latest, fully-mobile digital cinematography recorder. No larger than a toaster, the Codex Portable’s elegant design is packed with ground-breaking features and the industry’s most advanced technology, creating brand new opportunities for single and multi-camera production.

Light, easily-transportable and battery-powered, the Codex Portable contains all the key features of its larger siblings, including dual-channel 4:4:4 and 4K recording, ruggedised removable RAID DiskPacks, an integrated touchscreen controller, 8 channels of digital audio and a Virtual File System.





This new system has been designed to meet industry demand for a compact and rugged field recorder. It complements the original, award-winning Codex HD, 2K, 4K media recorder/server, which has already redefined tapeless digital cinematography and is now being used on major studio productions in the US and Europe.

Using visually-lossless compression, the Codex Portable brings cinema-quality disk-recording to every production where uncompressed recording is not an absolute demand, but total portability is.


Features
  • Portable - compact, lightweight and battery-powered for ease of use on location.

  • Flexible - captures moving images from one or two channels of 4:4:4 HD, all the way up to 4K, with 8 channels of sound and all production metadata, onto hot-swappable removable DiskPacks.

  • Powerful workflow-oriented design - Codex's unique Virtual File System allows all recorded material to be accessed via a network in a number of industry-standard file formats, with all copying, translation and format-conversion done invisibly and on-demand.

  • Industry standards-compliant - designed to interface with just about any digital camera system, including the Sony HD range, Dalsa Origin®, Thomson Viper FilmStream™, Panavision Genesis™, Arri D-20, RED Digital Cinema System and Vision Research Phantom series.

  • Future-proofed - comprehensive I/O connections and interfacing makes for complete compatibility with anything the future of digital cinematography might hold.

  • Custom design - a complete film location recording system, not just a simple 'boxed computer' solution.

  • Reliable - rugged, carbon fibre casing with advanced RAID DiskPacks for maximum performance and data integrity.

  • Simple and self-contained - built-in touchscreen interface and dedicated transport controls for ease of use and speed.

  • Expandable - can use a variety of media DiskPacks to optimise the size/weight/recording time ratio for your particular shoot.
