Formats recorded on Venom

The Venom FlashPak can record all formats that can be output from a Viper FilmStream
Camera. FilmStream gives the highest quality recording, but the intended workflow of the
production or the need for longer record times may make an alternative format the better
choice. For details of the formats see the Viper User’s Guide; the recording times available in
each case are shown in the table below.

When the camera and recorder are switched on, the LCD display shows the line and frame
rate for the format being received.
