Convergent Design's nanoFlash is the World's Smallest High Quality HD/SD-SDI / HDMI Recorder/Player.

By adding the nanoFlash, one can meet the 50 Mbps acquisition requirements, for many networks.

The nanoFlash produces extremely Low-Noise Images - Master Quality Modes are Visually Indistinguishable from Uncompressed

Improves the image quality of most cameras as the HD/SD-SDI and HDMI outputs are before the compression stages. Many cameras only record highly compressed 4:2:0 while outputing 4:2:2 over HD-SDI or HDMI. The nanoFlash uses these high-quality uncompressed 4:2:2 images to produce higher quality recordings.
