Sony at NAB 2011 Request

[Andrew McCarrick]

I'm looking to see if anybody going to NAB can do me a favor get some information on the Sony NX70U. They have conflicting information in the brochure and on their website. The website says it has an Infrared Mode, but the brochure and other parts of their website say, minimum illumination is 3 lux at 1/25th slow shutter mode. So which is it? 0 lux IR mode or 3 lux slow shutter mode.

I'll see if I can find an answer.

No infrared. Just asked the Sony guy standing next to the camera. It is, however, water resistant...

Well there's a Nightshot button on the right side of the body in the pictures on B&H... so did they decide to remove it or what?

If that's the case, are they EOL the A1U any time soon... I absolutely need Infrared with 24p...
