The new ProRes feature is intended to compress the size of uncompressed HD video files significantly while maintaining quality in full-format 10-bit with 4:2:2, allowing users to record six hours longer. 

The HyperDeck Shuttle 2 is compatible with Media Composer, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve and is available for around 345 dollars: http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/hyperdeckshuttle/howtobuy/
