AJA’s new KONA LHe is a 10-bit uncompressed video capture card designed
to take advantage of the PCI Express architecture in the new Power Mac
G5 Quad dual-core desktop workstations from Apple. It captures directly
to 10-bit files on disk and supports legacy 8-bit formats. When used
with Final Cut Pro 5’s HDV codec, the LHe’s hardware acceleration
allows real-time playback for monitoring and recording, and its
downconverter works with HDV in real time, allowing SD monitoring,
dubs, or mastering. Price: $1790 Site:
