I'm here at the 16x9 booth today speaking with James Lee who has some nice updates to Movcam's wireless system to show us. The system features three-channel focus, iris and zoom ("FIZ") control and a hand unit with a touch screen and storable lens mappings. Operating either hard-wired or on the 2.4GHz band, the unit features settable focus points and even vibrates when a focus point is reached.

At our NAB Canon Tech Talk, Megan and Paul Hawxhurst, Professional Market Specialist, discussed Canon's new Compact Servo 18-80mm lens, their new multi-purpose ME200 camera, as well as firmware updates for the C100 Mark II, C300 Mark II, and the DP-V2410 4K reference monitor.

For this Tech Talk, Snehal Patel of Zeiss joined us to talk about the different lenses they are exhibiting at NAB, from the popular CP.2s to Compact Zooms, and the new Otus 1.4/28mm.

This year at NAB, we're featuring a number of Tech Talks at our booth, where manufacturers stop by to talk about their newest gear and technology. In this presentation from the first day of the show, Ian talks with Jean-Marc Bouchut from Angenieux about their new Optimo 44-440, as well as some of the history of the company.

I caught up with Snehal Patel at the Zeiss booth for a quick overview of the current offerings in the Zeiss lineup.

I stopped by the Cooke booth today and spoke with Rich Eilers about some of their new offerings at this year's show. Cooke has announced two new additions to their Anamorphic /i family of lenses.

Recently, Canon's Ken Rowe stopped by our office to give us a sneak peek at two new products that will be debuting at NAB, the Compact-Servo 18-80mm zoom lens and their latest multi-purpose camera, the ME200S-SH.

Fujifilm has announced their latest cine zoom lens, and the first in the new "XK" category, the Cabrio XK6x20.

Movcam has released its Dual-Axis Wireless Control System, and what strikes you right away is its modular design and ease of use. The SCU-1 handset features a small LCD screen, which instantly gives the status of critical parameters such as channel and signal strength. Calibrating motors is a one-touch operation.
