Wednesday, June 5th, 2013. Mexico City, Mexico. Sony Professional Solutions Latin America (PSLA) announced today that it would begin offering a FREE license of ASSIMILATE's award-winning SCRATCH Lab Advanced Dailies software to their customers who purchase either of their high-end F5 and F55 CineAlta cameras, together with the AXS-R5 Raw Recorder. The offer will also be extended to buyers of Sony's F65 camera. The license of SCRATCH Lab is fully functional, and offers users a powerful, widely adopted software solution to process, color-correct, sync audio and transcode the stunning images from the entire range of Sony CineAlta cameras. Each customer will have access to one (1) license of SCRATCH Lab software free of charge through ASSIMILATE. (Please contact local Sony PSLA Representatives for the availability of this offer).
SCRATCH Lab provides filmmakers and on-set professionals an ACES-compliant toolset to playback, in real-time, 4K/2K RAW, while taking full advantage of the F55's ultra-wide color gamut. In addition to RAW, artists can play back Sony's XAVC in HD, 2K and 4K, as well as XDCAM 50Mbps in 4:2:2 mode. SCRATCH Lab also allows cinematographers to process the 6K and 8K images from the F65 sensor.
Our new high end CineAlta cameras have been very well received in Latin America, and so has SCRATCH Lab , stated Andrew Nelles Senior Marketing Manager at Sony PSLA. This powerful new combination will offer our customers outstanding media processing and color-correction capabilities, while allowing them to transcode Raw and XAVC 2K / 4K files to virtually any other industry standard format.
ASSIMILATE's SCRATCH Lab has quickly become the go-to system for DIT's and DP's to process images from advanced digital cinematic cameras because it features the power to handle virtually any format, colorspace or resolution you can throw at it - at a price that is many times less than its competitors, commented Nacho Mazzini, VP of Sales at ASSIMILATE. We're excited about Sony's decision to provide the power of SCRATCH Lab for FREE for their CineAlta camera customers, so they can maximize the potential of these amazing cameras.
Salvador De la Serna Marketing Manager for Cinema Cameras at SONY PSLA added the unparalleled color space of the F55 and F65 coupled with the SCRATCH software will allow for much more creative freedom then was previously available in the Post Production Process.
