SCRATCH has been the heartbeat of real 4k projects since the introduction of the RED Epic camera in 2010, and SCRATCH now provides native support for all popular 4k cameras, including RED EPIC and Scarlet, Sony F5/F55/F65, Canon C500, and the GoPro Hero3, said Steve Bannerman, VP marketing at ASSIMILATE. These events are an excellent way for artists to experience first hand how 4k actually works. From the camera to the system configuration to the displays, SCRATCH takes the mystery out of 4k. Our flexible rental and subscription options for SCRATCH and Lab make 4k actually affordable.
