The World's Smallest High Quality HD/SD-SDI / HDMI Recorder/Player
The most versatile Recorder/Player in the world in terms of bit-rates, recording options and formats
By adding the nanoFlash, one can may meet the acquisition requirements, 50 Mbps, for many networks.

The nanoFlash is a state-of-the-art miniature CompactFlash HD/SD SDI and HDMI Recorder/Player

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.

The nanoFlash offers a dramatically better image, free from motion artifacts and other image problems, such as mosquito noise. Typically the nanoFlash offers a better image, even from many high-end cameras.
