In this mode, once the trigger is pressed any images already in memory are overwritten and you record until memory is full, then it stops. It can be set so that only frames that occur after the trigger are saved (100% post trigger). What you end up actually saving in memory is a function of how you've set up your trigger. This behavior is called "circular buffer recording". When it gets to the end of memory, it cycles back to the beginning and continues recording, constantly overwriting itself – until the camera is triggered. When the camera is in the pre-trigger mode (you've pressed "Capture" in the user interface), the camera is continuously recording images into that memory. Most Phantom cameras come with a fixed amount of high-speed dynamic RAM. The exposure index (EI) range is specified by Vision Research per camera model to ensure optimal image quality throughout the range.

Please note that most modern Phantom cameras include Exposure Index control, which will boost the apparent ISO through the use of pre-defined tone curves that get applied to the raw images. When T or D is not specified, it can be assumed that the value published is the Daylight variant. Per the spec, we will often publish both a Daylight (D) and a Tungsten (T) value because the source of illumination has a significant bearing on the result, particularly with monochrome sensors. A gain adjustment to boost sensitivity is available on all Phantom cameras using image processing tools, if increased noise can be tolerated. When using gain to increase sensitivity, you also boost the noise level. The SAT method does not use gain to boost sensitivity. We use the SAT method which we believe is the best method for determining a sensor's sensitivity. We test the ISO of every Phantom camera model to the industry standard ISO 12232. VEO-S cameras are compatible with the Cameo VEObob - an accessory that mounts to the side of the camera and brings the accessory outputs of the Flex4K to the VEO. All VEO cameras have one 12V accessory output (a 4-pin Hirose port) for small on-camera monitors and viewfinders. Size and weight: The VEO is substantially smaller and lighter, which is good news for specialty rigs and mounting.Īccessory power: The Flex4K has more integrated power outputs, including component viewfinder support and remote port for remote controls.

RAM: Flex4K is available with RAM up to 128 GB and VEO is available with RAM up to 72 GB

VEO4K does include an HDMI output, which is not available on Flex4K. All video outputs mirror eachother on VEO. VEO does not support Versatile dual-HDSDI where there is one continuous live feed for monitoring. Video: Video output is another major difference, where the Flex4K supports dual-mode 4K video output (up to 2160 p30) the VEO4K only supports HD formats up to 1080 p60.

10Gb Ethernet will offload files at speeds up to 400-500 MB/second, to an optimized computer system. 10Gb Ethernet can minimize the problem of the slower save times from RAM to the card. VEO cameras are available with 10Gb Ethernet, which is not available on the Flex4K camera body. The CineMag IV supports Run/Stop mode (direct record to CineMag at lower frame rates) and playback of the files over HDSDI, which are not supported with the CFast card and VEO. VEO S-models (including VEO4K-PL) use CFast media, which save Cine raw files at a rate of approximately 90 MB per second. Flex4K cameras use CineMag IV media, which save at a rate of approximately 1GB per second. Media and save times: The biggest difference regarding the workflow has to do with CineMag support. The L (light, found in laboratory settings) and the S (full, found where extra controls and features are needed) are made from milled aluminum and are lightweight (6 lbs/2.8 kg), and have been ruggedized to increase durability in harsh environments. Both styles have sealed electronics to ensure that airflow does not allow dust and other environmental hazards onto the sensitive components. The ability to easily change lens mounts on location adds to the flexibility of the VEO4K 990 and increases usability without excessive downtime. The Phantom VEO4K 990 can utilize Nikon, PL, C, and Canon EF (with electronic control) mounts. This ensures that researchers can analyze fine details without compromising speed or other functionality. The compact body allows for portability and unrestricted camera configurations including microscopes and multiple-camera rigs.Īvailable in color or monochrome, the 35mm 4K sensor delivers images at 9 Gpx/s with low image noise. The VEO4K 990 brings the high imaging standards of the Phantom Flex4K to scientific and research related applications for motion analysis.
