According to the announcement, “Popular social media platforms are best viewed and highest engagement in vertical mode using smart phones. The KMU-200’s workflow has both horizontal (16:9) and vertical (9:16) switching modes. Horizontal streaming is the current norm, however vertical video content is growing in popularity due to smart phones where most content is consumed in portrait mode. The KMU-200 provides professional and engaging vertical video productions with multiple camera angles and high-quality audio. The built-in encoder streams directly to popular CDN platforms such as Facebook, YouTube or Instagram in vertical or horizontal modes. Record live events with built-in SD card recording.”
A single 4K camera can be utilized to obtain four cut outs or regions of interest and the full screen view, plus another HDMI input for an additional camera or computer.
“The KMU-200 is perfect for smaller houses of worship applications or panel interview applications. With social distancing becoming a new norm, the KMU-200 reduces the need to have multiple crew members to produce and stream your production,” says Craig Moffat, managing director of Datavideo US.
KMU-200 MSRP price of $3,199 and is available through authorized Datavideo resellers starting in June 2020. For more information, visit https://www.datavideo.com/.
