At such a high production level, perhaps, but no one has even used a digital Aaton before, so who knows about things like reliability. I haven't been able to process Aaton files on any major NLE or...

Considering they were working on a 35mm 3.5k DNG raw camera in the $120k range, and Black Magic went and knocked out the 4k cinema camera for $4000 that does 90% of what the Delta can, they could...

Where's my cheap multi-dimensional holographic super fast storage solution? You can measurebate big numbers all day long, but even some of the currently existing and in use formats are already quite...

Alright, this really pisses me off, but I keep seeing news about cheaper and cheaper 4K TV sets now down to $1500 for a Chinese knock off, and to my surprise, even the people on the RED forums often...

Why would I want to watch 4K on a sh!tty Chinese knockoff, when I can buy a premium Panny Plasma for the same price, and have HD that looks a hundred times better?

haha.. Deal of the century right...

There is a lot going on, just not in the same leaps and bounds as video, because how much more revolutionary can audio gear get? Pick a Zaxcom, Nagra, SD, Aaton or Aeta recorder/mixer with all the...

They used to have some Raw sample clips up in DNG format, not that it was of much use because you couldn't use the files using anything but Adobe Camera Raw, unless you had Marquise Tech's NLE which...

And?... Are they going to be handing out tissue paper, or is the "clean" room going to be covered in wank by the end of the show? :cheesy:

Differences:
Varicam does 120 fps @ 1080p vs 60p for the 5000
It does 12-bit 4:4:4
It does Log and Film Rec.
And it wouldn't be much of a Varicam if it didn't do speed ramping.

That's it for...

Panasonic was busy releasing new camcorders, the HPX5000 and a new .... 2/3" Varicam.

Looks like the Fuji Cabro 19-90mm, there is also an 85-300mm version, and they are about $40k each. s35 broadcast seems interesting, but it's going to be so prohibitively expensive...


What's a...

Oh come on! 5 grand gets you a top of the line Mac Pro, but a bigger price increase only bumps up a bit of processing on a camera? Time seems to have mysteriously passed over video land. On the other...

4:4:4 12-bit = woah!
120/60fps = woah!
Log = Woah!
CMOS ... still skeptical.

It better not be significantly more than the 5000, that camera is already overpriced at $28k... just my opinion;...

Oooh, I know about these, 3-axis gyro stabilizers have been around for a long time but were big, heavy, loud and very expensive, and so more often than not used for aerial videography from helis and...

The problem with DSLRs is that they lose efficiency as you stop down the lens, requiring increasingly higher gain just not to shoot at f/1.4 and still maintain a 180* shutter... This charactaristic...

I agree that prices need to go down for both cameras and lenses, but as long as people are forced to pull their own focus under unpredictable situations, the need for small-sensor cameras will...

More blades also make for better sun stars. 9 & up = sweet.

My view of things-
Panasonic camcorders are simple, but solid and have a pleasing image; generally cheaper than Sony.
Sony cams have lots of high end features.
Canon's prosumer camcorders have...

I'm still waiting on a 9~10" 1920x1200 monitor, preferably OLED, that would probably be the last monitor I would need to buy forever.

But these won't come standard of course, once you add the recording and codec price into the equation, I suspect you'll be looking at $1,500~1600. Still cheaper than the $2000 DP7 though, and the...

Very nice, I wonder how one of these would compare to a smallHD DP7, the built-in recorder is already a big bonus.

I totally agree. I see a 3700 on eBay right now for $14,500 that has 950 hours on it, complete with VF. It is rather bulky by today's standards, and low on sensitivity, but it's still a hell of a...

Price is $6495

Some plusses and minuses:
+ 50/60 fps in 1080p - finally! 720p is officially dead.
+ 200mbps - not that AVC 100 is bad by any means...
? CMOS - It likely doesn't have a global shutter due to the...

The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated - Mark Twain

It's just that no one really talks about camcorders, while s35 is on the biggest hype train ever.

The point about available...
