In this two-part guided tour of Panasonic's EVA-1 camera, we will explore some of the features and menus of this lightweight Super 35 camera.

Canon's latest firmware for the C300 Mark II, version 1.1.0.1.00, adds support for additional EF and EF-S lenses. Even more importantly, it also adds support for the LM-V1 Monitor that was originally introduced with the EOS C200.

ARRI's announcement of the ALEXA LF has the industry buzzing, to say the least, and some people are wondering about the other half of their recent announcement – ARRI's Signature Primes, the large image circle optical companions to ALEXA LF. Looking through the set of announced focal lengths, things get interesting.

The MixPre-3, MixPre-6, and MixPre-10T are the latest additions to the Sound Devices line of professional audio equipment. Each unit is a feature rich mixer and recorder. In this blog, I focus on how they can be used to record audio from your camcorder.

The SXT is the third generation of ALEXA from ARRI. This blog concentrates on the wireless capabilities of the SXT Plus. The Plus has electronics for wireless lens functions built in, so motors and cables are all you need to build the camera.

I took the Canon Compact-Servo 70-200mm T4.4 cine zoom lens to the 606, the park and trail that connects 2.7 miles of Chicago, to take a real, in-the-field look at the lens. It was just before golden hour and the 606 was packed with bicyclists, joggers, kids, and dogs, the perfect environment to test the lens.

You may remember a previous blog post about ARRI's new Master Grips when they were announced at IBC 2016. To recap: ARRI Master Grips not only provide camera stabilization; they also provide lens and camera control, and more. In this blog, I demonstrate these features with an ALEXA Mini.

The Video Devices PIX-E5 offers the same quality and flexibility of audio options as its Sound Devices counterparts. In this blog, I take a look at available audio input options for the PIX-E5 using SDI, HDMI or Line Level inputs.

The Panasonic AU-EVA1 is a lightweight Super 35mm-based camera that features a 5.7K sensor, dual ISO, a timecode port, and a host of other features that make it a serious digital cinema camera to consider in the sub $10,000 space.
