AJA MERGES XENA & KONA CAPTURE CARD LINES
The Kona family is AJA's line of 10-bit uncompressed capture and playback cards for video and audio input and output, and were initially designed solely for the Mac platform. The line now supports SD, HD, Dual Link 4:4:4 HD and 2K formats, with all the functionality of the former Xena products. Effective immediately, every new Kona package will include both Mac and Windows software and documentation.
Current Windows-based customers can find support on the AJA Website under “Kona for PC.” Updated drivers are available online.
AJA president Nick Rashby says the merging of the products simplifies the experience for the customer. "The post production world is not homogeneous, and offering a single product line with identical functionality that customers can use on either or both platforms, for the same cost, recognizes their need for ease of use and flexibility."
