I spent some time at the Teradek booth with Greg Smokler learning all about the next generation of wireless systems, as well as a new wireless focus control ecosystem. This year, Teradek focused heavily on usability, range, and Bluetooth capabilities.

I got the chance to stop by Fujinon’s booth at NAB 2019 and spoke with Tom Fletcher about Fujinon’s brand new line of full format cinema zoom lenses, called Premista. The first two lenses in this series are a 28-100 T2.9 and a 80-250mm, which is a constant T2.9 from 80-200mm and then gradually ramps up to a T3.5 from 201-250mm.

ARRI's surprise announcement last week of their new ALEXA Mini LF camera system has created a lot of buzz.

Be sure to check back often, as we will update this list with new information and additional questions.

Right before I had to hop on a plane heading to NAB in Las Vegas, Jose from Core SWX stopped by our Brooklyn location to show us their new Helix line of batteries.

The ARRI ALEXA Mini LF is the hottest ticket in town, so I was very fortunate to not only sit down with ARRI's Marc Shipman-Mueller, Product Manager of the ALEXA LF and ALEXA Mini LF, but also to get my hands on the camera.

Canon announced their new Sumire Cinema Prime lenses today. This new set of full format PL-mount lenses builds on their popular Cinema Primes, which are exclusively in EF mount.

Today ARRI announced a brand new camera in their popular ALEXA lineup. The ALEXA Mini LF is the companion camera to the full-bodied ALEXA LF. This LF (large format) ALEXA Mini has the same 36 x 25mm 4.4K sensor as the ALEXA LF, but now in a much smaller form factor. The new camera has the same basic footprint as the ALEXA Mini, but with some significant differences.

New from Atomos is the Shinobi, a lightweight 5.2” on-camera HDMI monitor with a touchscreen and 1000 nit maximum brightness level. Just 1” thin and weighing a mere 7 oz (without battery), the Shinobi takes square aim at the under-$500, thin and light on-camera display market, while packing some serious pro-level heft. Equally lightweight is Shinobi’s price: only $399.

Recently, AbelCine’s Matt Livingston came up with a stunning way to show off the new Angenieux Optimo Ultra 12x FF/VV, a night flight over Manhattan.
