Atomos Sumo PRO-19

Sumo PRO-19 offers touchscreen control over key camera parameters including start/stop, ISO, shutter, aperture, and white balance for supported cameras, as well as touch to focus. The ability to control cameras remotely is especially valuable in situations where the camera itself is difficult to access during shooting, for example when mounted on cranes, jibs, or ceiling rigs. Now, the director doesn’t just watch the shot. From the comfort of their chair, they can directly control the camera via the touchscreen. Adjust settings, refine the image, and shape the shot in real-time without needing to step onto the set. Faster decisions, tighter feedback, better results. Control is available for most Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon, Panasonic, and Sony mirrorless cameras.

Customizable control buttons

Get instant access to up to six frequently-used features – for example exposure, framing and monitoring tools, playback modes, LUTs, anamorphic desqueeze – all at the touch of a button. Turn Sumo PRO‑19 into a professional control surface, optimized for speed, reliability, and personalized workflows in real production conditions.

CFexpress – built for speed

Capture 8K RAW and high‑bitrate codecs with confidence, thanks to ultra‑fast write speeds designed for sustained performance. CFexpress Type B media is compact, durable, and built to withstand the rigours of video production. With rapid offload speeds, your footage moves into post or the cloud without slowing down your pipeline. Alternatively, you can capture to external, cost‑effective USB‑C storage.

*Storage media purchased separately. Minimum performance / certification requirements apply.

10-bit industry-standard codecs

Sumo PRO-19 records 10-bit, 4:2:2 Apple ProRes, ProRes RAW or Avid DNx from SDI or HDMI sources, for immediate post-event turnaround. It can also record in 10-bit H.265 up to 30Mbps, giving you complete flexibility to master at the highest quality for colour correction and finishing, or proxy recording for dailies in a faster turnaround production workflow.

Professional monitoring tools

Sumo PRO-19 offers a comprehensive suite of simple, one-touch monitoring tools for focus, framing, and exposure, including focus peaking, zoom (2:1, 1:1), zebras, EL Zone™ false color, frame guides, SMPTE safe areas, grid markers, waveforms, an RGB parade, vectorscope, and flexible 3D/1D LUT support with profile and preset options (including .cube file uploads). It also offers anamorphic de-squeeze monitoring to correct the ratio for anamorphic lens setups, and 16:9 framing for social media.

EL Zone

Sumo PRO-19 supports EL Zone, a professional false color exposure tool that helps you see exactly how bright or dark different parts of your image are. Unlike traditional false color systems that use rough IRE ranges, EL Zone assigns specific colors to exact exposure values — based on stops of light, in the same way your camera sees exposure. It’s a precise and consistent way to expose your image correctly every time.

LUTS

Sumo PRO-19 can receive LOG signals from the camera and provide real-time LUT (Look‑Up Table) preview to approximate what the final graded image will look like in Rec.709 — all while recording in high‑quality ProRes, DNxHR, or ProRes RAW. Custom LUTs (.cube files) can be loaded from CFexpress card or external USB‑C media (or SSD drive in the case of Sumo 19SE) and used in conjunction with the built‑in monitoring tools for precise exposure control.

Complete solutions for on-set and video village

On-set review - Confidently manage complex productions with a large, color-accurate 19-inch display that’s ideal for directors, technical directors, and camera operators.

Technical monitoring - Bright, 19-inch display with comprehensive technical monitoring tools including false color, focus peaking, waveform vectorscope & more.

Live switching & routing - Live switcher capable of playing and recording up to four ISO camera feeds, plus a fifth program channel, all while cueing and switching in real‑time.

Connectivity at its core - Sumo PRO-19 supports demanding production workflows with comprehensive SDI and HDMI I/O, audio connectivity, timecode, and power options.

Pro audio, fully integrated

Sumo PRO-19 supports 24-bit/48 kHz PCM audio, accepts two balanced XLR inputs with 48V phantom power for external mics or line sources, and has gain controls, meters, and per-channel delay adjustment. You also get balanced XLR outputs, embedded HDMI/SDI audio, built-in speakers, and a headphone jack for direct monitoring and sync with video.

Camera to Cloud

Camera to Cloud (C2C) is a revolutionary new workflow that lets you upload your video files directly from your Atomos monitor-recorder to the cloud, from wherever you’re shooting. There’s no time lost transporting and copying drives. Sumo PRO-19 has everything you need to do C2C built in, and supports direct upload to our own cloud platform – ATOMOSphere – as well as third-party platforms, including Frame.io and Dropbox.

NDI 6 HX3 transmit and receive

NDI can send and receive video over ordinary networks (including Wi‑Fi) in high quality, but with very low bandwidth requirements. It’s used increasingly in live production and events. Sumo PRO‑19 can be an NDI source, visible to all other authorized devices on the network, or an NDI receiver, with all the monitoring functionality you expect from an Atomos device.

Using NDI, you can send a video stream from a Ninja TX to a Sumo PRO‑19 over a local network without any video cables. This setup is ideal for flexible on-set monitoring, remote viewing, or multi-device production workflows.
