Shown at CineGear Expo 2007, Codex introduces portable high-resolution digital media recording system:

"This year's CineGear2007 exhibition in Los Angeles sees the launch of Codex Digital's new portable digital cinematography recorder. No larger than a toaster, the Codex Portable’s elegant design is packed with ground-breaking features and the industry’s most advanced technology – creating brand new opportunities for single and multi-camera production.

Light, easily-transportable and battery-powered, the Codex Portable contains all the key features of its larger siblings, including dual-channel 4:4:4 and 4K recording, ruggedised removable RAID DiskPacks, an integrated touchscreen controller, 8 channels of digital audio and a Virtual File System.

This new system has been designed to meet industry demand for a compact and rugged field recorder. It complements the original, award-winning Codex HD, 2K, 4K media recorder/server, which has already redefined tapeless digital cinematography and is now being used on major studio productions in the US and Europe.

Using visually-lossless compression, the Codex Portable brings cinema-quality disk-recording to every production where uncompressed recording is not an absolute demand, but total portability is."
