couple of new cameras announced at NAB although details are scarce now

the HPX 2700 will be a varicam with a P2 back on it ( no tape driver). It will also record AVC Intra

the HPX 3700 will be like the 3000 with additional features like frame rates from 1-30 frames 1080P, dual link output for 4:4:4 output (but not to P2 cards).

hvx 2? Isnt it about time?

[smelni]

not announced and it didnt sound like there would be any announcement for that.

they also announced a product that would allow the insertion of 2 drives - then you put a p2 card in and it simealtanously (cant spell - early in vegas) copy to both drives with verify - no computer needed.

there's a thread in the HVX200 section for the 200a.

These are in the AVC-intra line, can only expect them to be expensive.

I like the sound of the 2 drives thing for offloading. I'd be very interested especially if it had a gold mount on it for a nice long battery life.

[Nik Manning]

Ok these sound amazing!
