On-set 4K monitoring you can trust
Sumo PRO-19 is our next generation, 19-inch 4K HDR monitor-recorder-switcher, built for real-world on-set workflows. This is not just a monitor for the video village. It’s the control center, providing directors, clients, and talent with an on‑set viewing station for rapid decision‑making.
Built for connected workflows
With built in Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity for remote collaboration you can upload directly to camera to cloud platforms like ATOMOSphere, Frame.io, Dropbox, and more. Transmit or receive high quality NDI HX3 video over IP streams. With AirGlu™ wireless timecode you can sync multiple cameras and devices frame-accurately over Bluetooth® or RF.
Camera control & touch to focus
Sumo PRO-19 offers touchscreen control over key camera parameters including start/stop, ISO, shutter, aperture, and white balance for supported cameras, as well as touch to focus. The ability to control cameras remotely is especially valuable in situations where the camera itself is difficult to access during shooting, for example when mounted on cranes, jibs, or ceiling rigs. Now, the director doesn’t just watch the shot. From the comfort of their chair, they can directly control the camera via the touchscreen. Adjust settings, refine the image, and shape the shot in real-time without needing to step onto the set. Faster decisions, tighter feedback, better results. Control is available for most Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon, Panasonic, and Sony mirrorless cameras.

Customizable control buttons
Get instant access to up to six frequently-used features – for example exposure, framing and monitoring tools, playback modes, LUTs, anamorphic desqueeze – all at the touch of a button. Turn Sumo PRO‑19 into a professional control surface, optimized for speed, reliability, and personalized workflows in real production conditions.
CFexpress – built for speed
Capture 8K RAW and high‑bitrate codecs with confidence, thanks to ultra‑fast write speeds designed for sustained performance. CFexpress Type B media is compact, durable, and built to withstand the rigours of video production. With rapid offload speeds, your footage moves into post or the cloud without slowing down your pipeline. Alternatively, you can capture to external, cost‑effective USB‑C storage.
*Storage media purchased separately. Minimum performance / certification requirements apply.
10-bit industry-standard codecs
Sumo PRO-19 records 10-bit, 4:2:2 Apple ProRes, ProRes RAW or Avid DNx from SDI or HDMI sources, for immediate post-event turnaround. It can also record in 10-bit H.265 up to 30Mbps, giving you complete flexibility to master at the highest quality for colour correction and finishing, or proxy recording for dailies in a faster turnaround production workflow.
Professional monitoring tools
Sumo PRO-19 offers a comprehensive suite of simple, one-touch monitoring tools for focus, framing, and exposure, including focus peaking, zoom (2:1, 1:1), zebras, EL Zone™ false colour, frame guides, SMPTE safe areas, grid markers, waveforms, an RGB parade, vectorscope, and flexible 3D/1D LUT support with profile and preset options (including .cube file uploads). It also offers anamorphic de-squeeze monitoring to correct the ratio for anamorphic lens setups, and 16:9 framing for social media.
EL Zone
Sumo PRO-19 supports EL Zone, a professional false colour exposure tool that helps you see exactly how bright or dark different parts of your image are. Unlike traditional false colour systems that use rough IRE ranges, EL Zone assigns specific colours to exact exposure values — based on stops of light, in the same way your camera sees exposure. It’s a precise and consistent way to expose your image correctly every time.
LUTS
Sumo PRO-19 can receive LOG signals from the camera and provide real-time LUT (Look‑Up Table) preview to approximate what the final graded image will look like in Rec.709 — all while recording in high‑quality ProRes, DNxHR, or ProRes RAW. Custom LUTs (.cube files) can be loaded from CFexpress card or external USB‑C media (or SSD drive in the case of Sumo 19SE) and used in conjunction with the built‑in monitoring tools for precise exposure control.

There’s no time lost transporting and copying drives. Sumo PRO-19 has everything you need to do C2C built in, and supports direct upload to our own cloud platform – ATOMOSphere – as well as third-party platforms, including Frame.io and Dropbox.
NDI 6 HX3 transmit and receive
NDI can send and receive video over ordinary networks (including Wi‑Fi) in high quality, but with very low bandwidth requirements. It’s used increasingly in live production and events. Sumo PRO‑19 can be an NDI source, visible to all other authorized devices on the network, or an NDI receiver, with all the monitoring functionality you expect from an Atomos device.Using NDI, you can send a video stream from a Ninja TX to a Sumo PRO‑19 over a local network without any video cables. This setup is ideal for flexible on-set monitoring, remote viewing, or multi-device production workflows.
Wireless timecode for multicam shoots
Timecode is a unique digital “timestamp” assigned to each frame of video. It ensures that all your devices—cameras, audio recorders, and monitors — are in perfect sync. Sumo PRO‑19 includes AirGlu timecode sync over RF or Bluetooth to act as a powerful timecode hub.
