AJA released its first camera, the CION, at the end of last year. While we have seen some really nice images come from the camera, it hasn’t exactly become a runaway hit yet. What’s the best way to get a camera to take off? Get it into the hands of creative shooters!
To help promote the camera a few months ago, AJA launched its #TryCION program. #TryCION allows filmmakers to request to borrow a CION camera for free. The program is still ongoing, and you can still apply at the time of writing. Now AJA is announcing a huge “Summer of Savings” promotion and they are discounting the price by almost half ($5,000!). That means if you want to buy a CION today it will only cost you $4995. Not bad for a 4K, global shutter production camera!
If you previously purchased an AJA CION, don’t worry, if you email [email protected] they will give you two AJA Pak 512 SSDs for free.
