Overview
Join us for our monthly event series in LA: AbelCine's Gear & Schmear!
These morning mixers take place every month, and focus on the latest technology as well as the craft of filmmaking, brought together over breakfast bagels, various schmears, and coffee. This is a great opportunity to meet up with your fellow creatives and experience emerging technology in a fun, unstructured setting.
Our next Gear & Schmear, on Thursday, December 20 will focus on Sony's Z280. Footage will be shown and guests will get to go hands-on with the camera. Additionally, AbelCine and Sony specialists will be available to answer any questions.
We can't wait to see you, so be sure to RSVP today!
This Month's Technology Focus
Sony Z280
Sony's PXW-Z280 XDCAM Camcorder continues the tradition of the XDCAM series of cameras. It captures 4K at up to 60p relying on three 1/2" Exmor R sensors that provide improved low-light capability when compared to standard sensors. The camera integrates a 17x optical zoom lens and an electronic variable ND filter; it also supports modern codecs such as XAVC, as well as legacy codecs such as MPEG HD and DVCAM, allowing you to use one camera to shoot 4K, HD, or SD video.
The Z280 supports S-Log 3 for improved performance, and HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) which allows you to shoot and deliver footage compatible with both HDR and SDR without needing laborious post-production work. You can record in both 4K and HD simultaneously, or output 4K 60p via the built-in 12G-SDI output. The camera features built-in 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
