Novo 2K

**News is starting to emerge of a mysterious new 2k raw camera from Radiant Images, the rental house that made available the Novo**

 

The Novo (read about it [here](http://redshark.ebizontech.biz/index.php/2013/03/15/a-heroic-transformation-gopro-hero-goes-cinematic/)) is a rehoused Go-Pro 3 that can take c-mount or PL lenses and can overcome the auto exposure you would normally find on the Go-Pro but the company are now revealing a Mysterious new camera called the Novo 2K which shoots 2K raw images.

It seems a little unclear at the moment if the Novo 2k is a new version of the original rehoused Go-Pro Novo, or if it is a new camera altogether. It could be that the Novo creators are hoping to capitalise on the recent excitement around raw generated by the magic lantern hack, and have discovered a new way to get actual raw from the Go-Pro, or it could even be that they are thinking of the existing Pro-Tune Cam Raw mode of the Go-Pro (not really actual raw, more of a flat colour space).

### Tiny

However I noticed that the company also have a new European rental partner, [P+S Technik](http://www.pstechnik.de/), who are making available the original Novo but who also have a history in digital camera manufacturing. Could they have teamed up on the new camera? Then again, perhaps they have re-housed another camera again, or it is actually a new and improved Go-Pro 3 rehousing that can output raw somehow?

Whatever it is, it will be tiny and shoot 2k raw.

They are going to have the camera on display at Cine-Gear Expo, so hopefully we will have the answers to this mystery then!

### Update - from Radient Images' website:

> *This weekend at Cine Gear, Radiant Images will unveil an updated version called the **Novo 2K**. By shooting 2K uncompressed RAW, the [Novo 2K](http://www.novocamera.com/) enables filmmakers to have full control of latitude, exposure and color renditions, for example, giving them another powerful tool at their disposal.*
