NAB 2008 - Day 3
It’s amazing how tiring it is to stuff yourself with buffet food and drink endless quantities of alcohol (oh I know, you sympathize), we managed to survive another day at NAB and get some excellent progress on many of the projects we are working on.
I didn’t really get to see a lot of the booth’s today, so I can’t really elaborate on new technologies that were exciting to see. Sony’s new EX-1HDV camera was pretty cool. The XDCAM features a 14x Fujinon lens (integrated w/autofocus), 3 1/2″ CMOS sensors which have really nice low-light capabilities, full 1080p AND 720p!!!, and SDI out. I’m not sure if I like it more than my JVC HD250 - but it’s darn close. Picture quality is superb. And best of all I’ll have a few in my hands next week!
One more day to go and I’ll be spending it mostly near the likes of Microsoft and a few other select booths, hopefully I’ll see some new stuff to talk about tomorrow.
