Compact and Powerful Upgrades Arrive on Mobile Devices

In the realm of livestreaming, Teradek's latest innovation, the Prism Mobile 5G, is making waves as the lightest 5G-enabled camera-back video encoder on the market. This device empowers camera operators to stream HD and 4K video over cellular networks and Starlink with ultra-low latency rates as low as 250 milliseconds[1].

Key features of Teradek's Prism Mobile include a lightweight and compact design, ensuring camera operators remain agile during live streaming. It also supports 5G cellular bonding, providing robust and reliable connectivity on public and private networks. The device is equipped to stream both HD and 4K high-quality video, with an emphasis on secure, encrypted transmission of color-accurate live video feeds and recordings[1].

Another significant aspect is its native integration with camera-to-cloud platforms such as Frame.io and Sony C3 Portal, facilitating instant access to camera proxies for editors and near-real-time highlights and playback for marketing teams[1].

Meanwhile, the Ace XL Mk II fluid head and flowtech tripod combination, designed in collaboration with TV crews, meets the demands for robust, lightweight, and quick-to-deploy equipment. The combination, designed for ergonomic portability, features integrated magnets that keep it securely closed during transport[2].

The Astra IP line of weatherproof portable LED light panels, introduced by Litepanels, offers a color temperature range of 2,700 to 6,500 kelvin with high color accuracy (CRI/TLCI ratings around 95)[3]. The line includes the Astra IP Half, 1x1 and 2x1 units, all with an IP65 rating. Each Astra IP unit is lightweight, ranging from 6.8-15 pounds[3].

The Astra IP panels deliver a focused 30-degree beam angle and provide flicker-free dimming. Each unit comes with an integrated power supply and offers optional battery plates[3]. The Astra IP 1x1 model delivers around 3,000 lux, while the 2x1 reaches up to 5,500 lux at 3 meters[3].

Astra IP Travel Kits are available in Duo and Trio configurations, packing multiple Litepanels, battery brackets, and support stands into durable Pelican cases[4].

Finally, the ONE Hybrid Tripod, when paired with the new XCHANGE-ready 500X Fluid Video Head, becomes a professional system ready for modern content requirements[5]. The ONE Hybrid Tripod, designed for mirrorless cameras, features XTEND for fast setup and quick adjustment[5]. It includes a modular sliding center column, an integrated leveling mechanism, and XCHANGE for quick-release system.

These advancements in lightweight, 5G-enabled equipment are transforming the landscape of live video production, offering solutions that are efficient, reliable, and high-quality.
