HDR Image Analyzer 12G provides the necessary connectivity to support advanced 8K/UltraHD2 HDR and SDR production monitoring and analysis workflows. 

Providing the same high quality and precision analysis tools available for all other video formats, this powerful analyzer is a smart investment for today's needs as well as ensuring you are ready for tomorrow's.

HDR production demands a reliable and predictable tool for monitoring and analyzing all the steps in the process, to ensure that your artistic vision is followed from camera to the end user's final display.

AJA's HDR Image Analyzer 12G ensures that you are fully in control of your technical choices as you capture, pass on and deliver your HDR/SDR materials.

HDR Image Analyzer 12G offers powerful monitoring and analysis for:

• Live Production
• DIT Pipelines
• Broadcast Monitoring
• Postproduction
• QC (Quality Control)
• Final HDR Mastering

Colorist Samuel Bilodeau from Mystery Box offers practical and personal insights as a power user of the HDR Image Analyzer from AJA Video Systems. Based on his on-set and in the post suite experiences, he shares his favorite features and why the HDR Image Analyzer is vital to their workflow from end-to-end.

Modern cameras are inherently HDR capable with their wide dynamic ranges, and for live events, recording and broadcasts, it’s crucial to monitor their dynamic range and gamut outputs being employed for HDR delivery.

With input support for both leading camera LOG formats as well as SDR, HLG and PQ monitoring from a range of sources, HDR Image Analyzer 12G takes the pain out of HDR monitoring. With a wide range of analysis tools and automatic error logging with timecode stamping, HDR Image Analyzer 12G ensures your production achieves the desired final results.

The Academy Color Encoding System (ACES) is becoming an industry standard for managing color throughout the life cycle of a motion picture or television production. From capture through editing, VFX, mastering, public presentation, archiving and future remastering, ACES ensures a consistent color experience that preserves the creative vision.

HDR Image Analyzer 12G supports an ACES Grading Colorspace and offers ACEScct signal analysis for realtime integration with ACES workflows.

AJA's HDR Image Analyzer 12G offers an elegant interface for accessing all its powerful setup, monitoring and analysis tools. Watch this video for a full run through of all of HDR Image Analyzer 12G 's key features.

HDR Image Analyzer 12G’s interface provides a quadrant layout for viewing your tools and footage as you work. Quick key shortcuts provide pre-configured common layouts for how your tools and views are presented.

For further customization, you can also choose a particular tool to be shown in any of the quadrants by either right clicking on the quadrant itself and choosing your preferred tool, or by accessing quadrant choices from the Analyzer Mode menu.

Included in AJA’s HDR Image Analyzer 12G’s toolsets are waveform, histogram and vectorscope monitoring, plus a host of essential image analysis tools:

• Automated Color Space switching over SDI for SDR/PQ/HLG
• Waveform
• Histogram
• Vectorscope
• Color Gamut
• Nit Light Level
• Frame average Light Level bar
• File Based Error Logging with Timecode
• Data Analyzer with Advanced Pixel Picker
• Advanced, Out of Gamut and Out of Brightness Detection with Error Tolerance 
• Out of Gamut MAX warning: Provides notice if color goes outside of P3d65

Working with the HDR Image Analyzer 12G is simple and flexible with its 4x 12G-SDI bidirectional connections.

Connect your sources to one or more of the 12G-SDI connections and loop through to monitors or further in your pipeline with the remaining 12G-SDI connections.

For 8K/UltraHD2 workflows, simply connect your source to all four of the 12G-SDI connections.

Connect an UltraHD display (up to 60p) from a DisplayPort connection for best viewing of both the footage and the HDR Image Analyzer 12G interface - if necessary the DisplayPort can drive an HDMI monitor with a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter.

High raster imagery deserves a high raster interface for keeping a critical eye on your aesthetic elements as you analyze your materials for HDR. HDR Image Analyzer 12G provides pristine imagery and the ability to hone in on the smallest details for an accurate analysis of your materials:

• High quality, ultra precise UltraHD user interface for native resolution picture display including PQ support for HDR capable displays.
• The ability to arrange tools at will in the four quadrants of the interface
• Line Mode: Focus Region of Interest onto a single Horizontal or Vertical line.
• Still Store.
• Audio Peak Metering
• Out of Gamut, Brightness, False Color Mode, Audio Levels, and Phase Metering.

AJA’s technical support is recognized as among the best in the industry and is available to all AJA customers. If you need assistance with any aspect of your HDR Image Analyzer 12G installation, configuration, operation or encounter any technical issue,   will work with you to get up and running.
