Operation

The Sumo PRO-19 combines monitoring, recording, and switching in a single system. Multiple cameras can be connected via HDMI or SDI, allowing you to switch live and simultaneously take separate ISO shots.

The HDR screen supports real-time conversion of log and RAW signals to HDR (PQ/HLG), giving you an accurate view of the final result directly on set. With built-in scopes such as waveform, vectorscope, and false color, you have full control over exposure and color.

Thanks to support for LUTs, you can apply a color preview immediately. Recordings are stored on high-speed CFexpress media or external USB-C storage and can be forwarded directly to cloud workflows.

Application

The Atomos Sumo PRO-19 is suitable for:

• On-set monitoring (Video Village / DIT workflows)

• Multicamera live productions

• Focus pulling (1st AC monitor) thanks to large screen and assist tools

• Studio monitoring with accurate HDR display

• Field recording and dailies generation

• Camera-to-cloud workflows

Due to the combination of monitoring, recording, and switching, this is a central hub in professional productions.

Limits

• Large and less mobile than smaller field monitors

• Requires fast and relatively expensive storage media (CFexpress)

• Full functionality requires knowledge of codecs, HDR, and workflows.

• Battery solutions (V-mount/Gold mount) are optional

• Overkill for simple shoots or solo creators
