Atomos Sumo19SE

The Sumo 19SE from Atomos is more than just a monitor - it's a robust, all-in-one production tool built for demanding environments. Whether you're on a commercial shoot, indie set, or in a multicam broadcast setup, the Sumo 19SE adapts effortlessly with its rugged 19-inch 1200nit HDR touchscreen, support for DCI-P3 color, and the ability to record ProRes RAW up to 6Kp30. It functions as a high-end video village hub, combining live monitoring, ISO recording, and real-time playback, making it indispensable for directors, DPs, and crews needing immediate feedback and professional-grade recording in the same device.

With four independent SDI inputs, HDMI support, and full-size XLR audio connections, the Sumo 19SE can record up to four HD streams simultaneously, along with a fifth program feed for live switching and output.

Add balanced audio recording with phantom power, asynchronous live switching, and support for Apple ProRes, Avid DNxHR, and ProRes RAW, and the Sumo 19SE becomes an essential solution for both studio and location work. From capturing pristine camera sensor data to handling complex multicam workflows, this is professional-grade monitoring and recording-refined, flexible, and field-ready.
