Sony partners with Assimilate on free Scratch Lab license

LIMA, PERU — Sony Professional Solutions Latin America (www.sonypro-latin.com) is offering a free license of Assimilate’s Scratch Lab advanced dailies software to customers who purchase a high-end F5, F55 and F65 CineAlta camera. The offer will also apply to buyers of Sony’s NEX-FS700RH, NEX-FS100 and NEX-EA50H models. 

The license of Scratch Lab is fully functional, and offers users a powerful software solution to process and manage large amounts of data, color-correct, sync audio and transcode images from the entire range of Sony’s CineAlta and NXCAM 4K Super 35 MM cameras. Each customer will have access to one subscription license (valued at $995) for one year.  

Scratch Lab provides filmmakers and on-set professionals an ACES-compliant toolset for realtime playback of 4K/2K RAW, while taking full advantage of the F55’s ultra-wide color gamut. In addition to RAW, artists can playback Sony’s XAVC in HD, 2K and 4K, as well as XDCAM 50Mbps in 4:2:2 mode. Scratch Lab also allows cinematographers to process the 6K and 8K images from the F65 sensor.
