It was a busy NAB for our technical specialists with visits to the Panasonic, RED, Arri, Zeiss, Canon, Sony and Freefly booths, to name a few. With so much to cover, we thought we'd round up all our NAB blogs in one place for you.

We recently covered the breakthrough mobility of the ALEXA Mini, and we have the camera in our NAB booth this year.

I have some exciting updates to share from Arri on the AMIRA and ALEXA SXT. First, the AMIRA Software Update Packet (SUP) 2.0 is now available for download.

NAB is upon us, and while we are already seeing lots of new announcements, the show itself will be filled with even more surprises. We often get asked what to expect from the show and what you should check out.

Canon's Cine-Servo 17-120, with its versatile zoom range and 31.7mm image circle, has proven to be popular with our clients. However, depending on what camera you are shooting with, there are extra items to take into consideration, such as adapters, power options, support, and more.

Arri just announced the latest addition to the ALEXA family, the all new ALEXA Mini. Coming in at a svelte 7.3" x 4.9" x 5.5" (LxWxH) and weighing only 5 pounds, the Mini compliments the series with the same S35 ALEV III CMOS sensor found in the ALEXA and AMIRA. Utilizing a carbon body with titanium lens mount attached directly to the titanium sensor mount, the Mini shares the same PL, EF and B4 bayonet lens mounts, as well as the same MVF-1 viewfinder as the AMIRA.

Deciding on the perfect zoom lens isn't always easy, but we've created this chart to make the job a little easier. You can compare lenses based on weight, image coverage, maximum aperture, budget and more. Download the latest version of the chart.

The ALEXA XT has the same size sensor as previous models, but with its increased processing power, it can now record the full sensor area all at once.

Today Arri announced that they will offer a new software upgrade for the AMIRA, which will allow it to record ProRes Ultra HD files (at a resolution of 3840x2160). The upgrade is expected to be available for purchase at the online Arri License Shop by the end of 2014.
