Three key features of Catalyst Browse / Prepare

Clip selection using logs created during shooting

You can select clips by using Shot Marks and OK/NG/KEEP flags saved during shooting

Correction using metadata information saved during shooting

Fast and highly accurate image stabilisation is provided, along with compensation of focus breathing and horizon lock, plus rolling shutter reduction.

Colour grading using LUT/EI information saved during shooting

Support for Cine EI, Cine EI Quick, and Flexible ISO editing, and also for editing using LUT information saved during shooting

Selection using logs created during shooting. Seamlessly import into your PC for an efficient workflow

Correction using metadata information saved during shooting

By utilising data from the gyro, users can make high-quality corrections that are free from distortion. Furthermore, by using the metadata, image analysis can be omitted, enabling rapid processing.

Precise corrections

Image stabilisation

Image stabilization is performed using metadata and lens information saved during shooting. It corrects camera shake which is noticeable when filming while walking. Catalyst Browse and Prepare also supports manual adjustment of the amount of correction applied, allowing precise image stabilization which can only be achieved through post-processing.

Lens breathing compensation

Supports a lens breathing compensation function that minimises focus breathing, in which the angle of view changes when the focus is adjusted during shooting. It calculates the optimal crop amount in the clip area to be used for editing, and automatically computes the amount of breathing compensation to be applied. Catalyst Prepare also supports manual adjustment of the amount of compensation applied, allowing precise breathing compensation which can only be achieved through post-processing.

Horizon Lock

This function corrects the horizon orientation using metadata saved during shooting to rotate the image. This is useful for example when the horizon has shifted during hand-held shooting,

Rolling Shutter Reduction

This function improves image quality by correcting the rolling shutter phenomenon that tends to occur when shooting while panning the camera.

Fast processing

Fast processing using gyro data

Fast processing using gyro data

A 6-second clip recorded in full HD 60p is analysed in about 0.1 seconds, with gyro and lens information accurately projected and interpreted in 3D space, enabling ultra-fast, precise corrections including image stabilization and distortion correction.

Colour grading using the LUT/EI information from the time of shooting

Supports a wide variety of metadata information

Supports a wide variety of metadata information

You can import log recording mode information such as [Flexible ISO], [Cine EI] and [Cine EI Quick]. Catalyst Browse and Catalyst Prepare also provides a convenient workflow that allows users to apply colour grading using LUT consistently from shooting to editing.

  • The Cine EI and Cine EI Quick modes shoot at Base ISO, so you can shoot videos with a good balance between noise and dynamic range
