I spent some time at the Wooden Camera booth today talking to Ryan Schorman about their new products and updates to existing Wooden Camera favorites.

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.

ARRI's surprise announcement last week of their new ALEXA Mini LF camera system has created a lot of buzz. We've had a lot of interest in the new camera, and we are currently taking preorders with a $5,000 deposit. To help folks get the information they need, we've gathered the most popular questions we've received and answered them here. Be sure to check back often, as we will update this list with new information and additional questions.

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.

The Sony VENICE has been out for a while now and has quickly become a popular camera for feature films, television series, and a wide range of other applications. The VENICE produces great looking images, as it should, and it also offers a very good post workflow. Sony has been improving their workflows for years, and after many iterations, they really nailed it down in the F55. The VENICE builds on this even more and does a great job of keeping things simple.

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.

DSMC2, the latest generation of RED’s camera BRAIN, is not only powerful, but the entire system is extremely versatile. These bodies can house four different sensors: MONSTRO 8K VV, HELIUM 8K, and GEMINI 5K S35, and the new 5K DRAGON-X. A wide range of modules and accessories expand the possibilities even further. We asked three of our Technical Specialists to describe their ideal RED DSMC2 package. Nic couldn't stop at just one kit, however. So, here's a look at what’s in his "Adrenaline" RED kit.

Our popular comparison chart of Phantom high-speed cameras by Vision Research now includes the Ultra-High-Speed v2640 Onyx specialty, rent-only camera.

It is capable of capturing up to 12,500 fps at 1080p. The Onyx has been optimized for cinema production, making it the ideal choice for projects where extreme slow motion and high image quality are required, such as VFX, commercial, and tabletop applications.
