DJI has announced new firmware updates for the Ronin 4D and High-Bright Monitor.
Some of the biggest new additions include the ability to record in Apple ProRes 4444XQ and 422 LT and the ability to jam sync external timecode sources via the 3.5mm microphone port. You can now also get a clean HDMI output through the HDMI port, and output 4K 4:2:0 60 fps through the HDMI when recording at 4K.
Now, there are a few caveats when recording in ProRes 4444XQ. You can’t output a signal over HDMI, the exposure assistant, peak focus and LiDAR waveform are disabled hen recording ProRes 4444XQ video at 6K/48fps or 4K/96fps and above.
