Sony NEX-FS700: 4K APS-C Camcorder & 240fps at 1080p

April 2, 2012 By Eric Reagan

Sony NEX-FS700

Sony has released preliminary information on the upcoming NEX-FS700, and it looks like a killer camera out of the box if the price comes in around the expected $8k mark, available in June.

The FS700 will ship as a 1080p camera that utilizes an 11.1MP EXMOR CMOS sensor, which will later receive a firmware upgrade to enable the 4K functionality.  It’s not clear whether or not this upgrade will come at an additional expense like the initial S-LOG upgrade for the Sony F3.

More so than the 4K, the feature that really excites me is the ability to capture 10x slow motion in full 1080p.  The record times are limited to 8 seconds for 240fps and 16 seconds for 120fps.

Another big boon is the built-in ND filters (up to 6 stops) that we all missed on the FS100, along with 3G-SDI and HDMI outputs for external capture devices.  It will also come with expanded focus magnification up to 8x out of the box – something the FS100 will get via a firmware update later this month.  Another expected update for the FS100 is the ability to store camera profile settings on memory cards – and, thankfully, Sony will put this on the FS700 from day one.

I’ll have more coverage on this new camera as additional details emerge. For now, check out the rest of the new features below. [Read more…]

Matthews Studio Equipment is launching the Floatcam HD-DC Slider at NAB 2012.  As the model name implies, this is a heavy duty version of the popular DC Slider, and can handle larger cameras like the ARRI Alexa.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Teased via Conan’s Editors

March 15, 2012 By Eric Reagan

Premiere Pro CS6

Conan O’Brien’s editing staff put together a fun little video (seen below) that talks about Adobe’s upcoming Premiere Pro CS6.  In it, they take some jabs at both Apple’s Final Cut Pro X, as well as a couple of digs at AVID.  Additionally, we get a little bit of a look at the new CS6 interface.

Editing Video in Photoshop CS6

March 12, 2012 By Eric Reagan

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PD3sh6iT72Y&w=640&h=360]

Take a look at the above video, which was completely edited in Photoshop (CS6 maybe?).

Right now, you can edit videos in Photoshop CS5 Extended.  I’ve done it in the past even with plug-ins applied to video footage.  However, if I can get the look I’m after in Premiere Pro or After Effects, I’m going to do that because the process is more streamlined (for now).

However, I’m excited to see what Adobe has up its sleeve because of the following statement at the Photoshop blog from Photoshop Senior Product Manager, Bryan O’Neil Hughes: [Read more…]

Canon Cinema EOS Teaser for April 15

March 10, 2012 By Eric Reagan

Canon NAB Teaser

As expected, it looks like Canon has big plans in place for NAB 2012.  Engdaget broke news of this teaser, which takes place the night before the NAB Show exhibits open.  While the Internet is scrambling at guesses of what this “exclusive screening” will be, it seems rather clear that it will relate to the new Cinema EOS line (see prior invite below).

Adobe to Offer Creative Suite Subscriptions for $50/mo

February 15, 2012 By Eric Reagan

Adobe Creative Cloud - Everything You Need

Adobe is about to shake things up a bit with a new subscription model for its Creative Suite applications.  Adobe has kinda soured the milk recently with its decision to cut upgrades for earlier versions of its software (which it later rescinded for this upgrade cycle), so I’m curious to see how all of this shakes out.

Sony A99 at 24MP and A57 at 16MP Inbound?

February 13, 2012 By Eric Reagan

Sony A850 and A900

It’s been a little too quiet on the Sony front since the introduction of the uber-popular Sony A77.  So, it’s not really much of a surprise to hear rumors of a refresh to the full-frame Sony A900 and (even more so) the consumer-ish Sony A55. Both are very solid cameras in their respective categories; however, their age is starting to show. [Read more…]
