The KONA-LH offers a full-ride to HD with no-compromise 10-bit uncompressed video, 2-channel AES and 8-channel embedded audio, Analog Composite/Component Video In/Out, 2-channel analog audio In/Out, broadcast-quality hardware downconversion and TBC on analog inputs. Similar to KONA 2, but without upconversion or Dual-link, KONA LH bridges the analog and digital worlds by offering I/O for both. A lot of card for a low price, KONA LH also features dual-monitor desktop viewing for editing ease.
AJA Video
Since 1993, AJA Video has been a leading manufacturer of video interface and conversion solutions, bringing high-quality, cost-effective digital video products to the professional broadcast and post production markets.
Format Versatility
Like the KONA LS, the KONA LH comes standard with a breakout cable and also works with the optional KL-Box for rackmounted I/O convenience. Supporting native 10-bit resolution, KONA LH provides optimum quality for SD and HD-the maximum allowed in SMPTE SDI standards. Using the QuickTime format, KONA LH captures directly to 10-bit files on disk, and also supports many legacy 8-bit formats for backward compatibility. KONA LH also supports DVCPROHD and HDV, DV25, DV50, JPEG, and more.
Great Audio Support
In addition to perfection in video, KONA LH offers all the audio support you'd ever want: native OSX multi-channel audio and 24-bit AES/EBU digital audio at 48kHz for digital production. For ease of use, KONA LH also includes hardware sample-rate conversion on AES inputs-eliminating source synchronizing requirements.
