It's been nearly 10 months since the Sony VENICE camera first became available, and in the last few months it has really started to take flight. Demand is skyrocketing for both sales and rentals of the VENICE. Because of this, and because it is such a great camera, we thought it was time to give you a deep dive video on just how it works.

I was excited to get my hands on the new TVLogic F-7H 7” HDR Field Monitor, having read about its 1920x1080 resolution display and extremely powerful backlight. In fact, the F-7H boasts an eye-watering 3,600 NIT maximum brightness that makes it the brightest 7" screen on the market right now, besting TVLogic’s previous models by over 1,000 NITs.

New from cmotion, the cPRO is the latest addition to their family of wireless focus solutions. In this blog I take a look at several camera builds using the cPRO system.

RED's DSMC2 cameras are able to record .R3D RAW files and ProRes files simultaneously. Both recordings are stored in the same folder, sharing the same metadata. The cameras also allow you to import 3D LUTs with the option of "baking" the LUT into the ProRes files. So, you could say the camera is generating "lite" dailies.

Recently I had the chance to take a closer look at the SmallHD 1303 HDR monitor. This 1500 nit 13” 1080p monitor is exceptional for field work. In this video, I take a look at the build, menu set up, and LUT functionality. 

Canon has been busy updating their 3D LUTs (Look Up Tables), but they are still using a variant of the 3D '.cube' format that can stymie many popular NLEs (Non-Linear Editing systems) such as Adobe Premiere Pro CC. To help remedy this situation, we've created more widely compatible versions of these LUTs, as well as some creative LUTs, all of which you'll find below.

AbelCine LA is home to a number of certified divers, so in this blog I take a look at some of the most popular offerings from Gates Underwater Products available for rent or sale at AbelCine.

In this, the last episoide of my 4K for $10K series, I cover the Canon C300 MK II. I focus on the camera's core features, both hardware and software, and where I see it fitting into Small to No Crew production environments.

The Apollo is the latest offering from INOVATIV’s line of equipment carts. Recently, I was able to take one for a test drive. With tool-less assembly, the Apollo can be built from the ground up in mere minutes.
