The COLR, COLR Lite, and COLR Duo devices also function as a wireless camera control bridge when connected to a camera’s USB or Gigabit Ethernet port.

Teradek today announced the addition of three new models to their popular line of COLR devices. The 4K COLR Pro, COLR Duo, and COLR Lite join the COLR, offering cinematographers and broadcasters an array of options for wireless real-time color correction and remote camera management.

The entire COLR lineup offers a simple ACES-capable solution for wirelessly grading live video footage with the CDL and 33x33x33 3D LUT of your choice. Utilizing a powerful Teradek video processing platform, COLR allows filmmakers to create and monitor nuanced color grades with the accuracy to pass through any postproduction pipeline.

Using the camera’s native web interface or a third-party software solution such as FoolControl, COLR can manage camera parameters like white balance & tint as well as start/stop trigger, frame rate, shutter speed, and more.

New COLR Models for NAB

COLR Pro is the world’s first professional cart or rack-mounted 4K color grading system. It brings additional I/O and bandwidth to the COLR platform with support for two independent 12G-SDI inputs and up to four 12G SDI outputs, each with independently applied 33x33x33 3D LUTs with a CDL or 1D LUT.

The COLR Duo offers all the functionality of the original COLR and adds a second 3G-SDI output. This allows users to apply unique 33x33x33 3D LUTs with a CDL or 1D LUT on each of the two outputs or independently monitor a clean output signal. COLR Duo maintains the platform’s groundbreaking wireless camera control via 802.11AC WiFi and easily attaches to any camera, monitor, or DIT cart via ¼-20” mount or a custom bracket.

COLR Lite is perfect for compact action cameras or small DSLRs/mirrorless cameras. Built from lightweight and rugged ABS plastic, COLR Lite features an HDMI input with a 3G-SDI output with the same 33x33x33 3D LUT capability found in all COLR models. A USB port for camera control and/or powering an action camera is included as well as 802.11ac WiFi for robust wireless camera control and remote color grading.
