Odyssey Apollo Recorder

Categories: ,

The Odyssey Apollo is a super-compact, high-performance four channel SSD-based VTR replacement. Ideal for in-vehicle use for recording POV cameras, the Apollo can record four channels of 1080i video simultaneously at full resolution whilst providing a quad-split monitoring display on the integrated LCD panel.

The size of a small tablet and able to run for hours on a camcorder battery, Apollo is truly portable and the only device of its kind that can both record multiple HD camera feeds as well as live-switch between them. It’s a production studio in the palm of your hand.

  • Apollo records four HD video signals as well as a quad-split or live-switch
  • All cameras in perfect sync with matching timecode
  • Four-camera coverage in a single portable unit
  • Live-Switch as well as record ISOs. No Genlock Required
  • Any HD cameras, all to one card and one format. A producer’s best friend
  • Output four synced files or one multicamera file for efficient post
  • A real-time switcher for live events...without a rolling rack of gear
  • Image Analysis tools for matching cameras. A DIT’s go-to weapon
