AF-100 at IBC

drooling already, can't wait. I'm gonna be really torn between the AF100 and the scarlet this winter.

I haven't been given any news on release date, so I wouldn't expect to see it before midnight December 31st (that is, after all, the "end" of 2010, right?) Any sooner than that would be good news. I'll ask for an update, but so far they haven't said anything different than "end of 2010".

In Europe its told that first AF 100 comes in a NTSC version, Oct/Nov and the PAL comes in Dec.
But it that if all works out well in final testing

For me, it's like getting excited about hooking up with the ugly girl at the dance because I heard she does a mean tango.

Barry, eagerly waiting for your feedback.

Oh... the 'Tango'... is that what they call it now? :evil:

Way to go, Barry!

FYI: AJA has announced a new $2K Ki Pro _MINI_ version of their portable ProRes recorder (use it with the AF100, etc.) at the IBC expo!:

I can say you one thing.
I still do not understand why we don't see RAW HDMI recorders for $100.
In reality some latest TV chips have HDMI and are able to write to SATA (I am not sure about HDMI, but from DVB for sure).
Add here 2.5" SSD and here we go.
You can also use Intel Core ULV computer with SSD and Blackmagic USB 3.0 thing to record :)

As for Barry. Wait guys. He is recovering.
I hope that he did not forget to ask guys for AF-100 firmware sources :)
 
Man I wish that thing was P2! It would be a no-brainer for me if it was. From my experience with the GH1 and all the finickiness of SD cards I am apprehensive. Those little cards suck!

Not sure what this means. All AF100s are both NTSC/PAL, and all of them will be released in December. There will not be any AF100s available in October or November anywhere in the world. There might be more prototypes for testing, but not released for sale.

If I give you an Associate Producer credit on my movie think your demo unit could find its way to my set?
 
I know this is a silly statement, but who comes up with the names for these things. I appreciate 100 as it conjures fine memories of the dvx and the original affordable 24p revolution. AF has always meant autofocus. This camera doesn't even come with a lens, and will likely be mostly used with manual focus primes, so wouldn't MF be more appropriate.

Either way, bring it on.

Yeah, I'm scratching my head on that one. AF = "Appropriate for Filmmakers"? I don't know... I told 'em they should call it the "Green One" but ... yeah, got no traction with that...
