Marvin 2.0 3D recorder now available
MARVIN Technologies (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) will present the MARVIN 2.0 on-set camera data management system at IBC 2011 in Amsterdam, September 9-13. Along with support for RED, ARRI Alexa, Silicon Imaging SI 2K, and other cameras, IBC attendees will get a first look at MARVIN's new stereoscopic 3D support.
MARVIN 2.0 is available in three models based on daily shooting requirements. MARVIN 400 can process 400GB of camera data per day, the MARVIN 800 can handle 800 GB, while the MARVIN 3D has sufficient processing power to ingest up to 1.5TB of regular or stereo 3D footage each day. MARVIN 2.0 is housed in a robust case with a padded exterior, and each model is available with either 6 or 12 TB of onboard RAID storage. Support for the RED, Panasonic P2, ARRI D21/Alexa, Silicon Imaging SI 2K, Vision Research Phantom and Weisscam HS-2 file formats is included with all versions.
The new stereo 3D support in Marvin 2.0 allows the system to ingest left and right eye images simultaneously, archiving to two LTO tapes – one for each eye. It will render stereoscopic content to side-by-side, interleaved or checkerboard QuickTimes for Final Cut Pro or MXF files for fast import into Avid systems.
A video presentation of Marvin 2.0 is on YouTube. See MARVIN at IBC 2011 - booth 7.K01.
