From ATOMOS some new firmware meaning you can now connect its units to Frame.io Camera to Cloud workflows. This enables collaboration in real-time with different remote teams, regardless of their location or budgets.

As a result, once these devices are paired with Frame.io by using ATOMOS Cloud Studio and linked to a Frame.io account, media can be uploaded immediately. After filming, your footage appears instantly to view in Frame.io. You can also download it into integrated video applications such as Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
