4K Axiom Alpha Prototype Camera: Check Out The First Footage

Axiom Alpha Prototype Camera



The first footage taken from the 4K Apertus Axiom Camera has been uploaded. The open source camera is still just a prototype and it’s early days, the team said…



Please note that this footage contains the first samples ever recorded with the Axiom Alpha prototype. Whilst this is a major milestone, it represents only our first step through the door and into the beginning of further tweaking. As it stands, the video signal output from the Axiom Alpha still carry some flaws. Let’s take a look at them in detail:


We have not yet:

calibrated the colours of the camera

calibrated the white/black point (offsets) and linearization, leading to some vertical streak/curtain effects

created a Fixed Pattern Noise (FPN) profile (the Alpha prototype already supports this, however we have not yet found the time to actually conduct the required measurements)

There are some red lines at the bottom of the image, this is due to unresolved minor incompatibilities between the Axiom Alpha HDMI output and the utilized recorder
