The world has always had a 3rd dimension! But why is everyone so interested in it, all of a sudden!? The answer is very simple… capitalism! Money! Profit! The studios’ profit, to be precise! Since our cave man times, we’ve been trying to graphically represent what our eyes see. Attempts to reproduce depth go as [...]
6:45 on a Sunday morning and Image Mechanics used the same trick to get me out of bed… Of course I didn’t expect to win any raffle prizes, but with my luck I knew my number would be drawn if I wasn’t there… haven’t quite figured out how to beat this system, yet… It was [...]
Saturday 6:30am and the alarm goes off… snooze… it goes off again… Sh!$ I have to get up… the Collision Conference starts today and there’s a raffle drawing at 8:30… I get there on time, but of course, I don’t win anything… You have to agree, though, Image Mechanics found a pretty smart way to make [...]
It’s official! Canon Rumors reported the official date for a press release scheduled for the 1st of September to announce the rumored new SLRs. Expectations now split between the 7D and the 1D Mark IV, although some say that the 1D replacement should only come out in 2010, to complete Canon’s traditional 3 year life [...]
It was pretty exciting reading Phillip’s post, this morning! The new Zacuto viewfinder “Z-Finder V2″ is finally out and he’s one of the first lucky ones to get it… The passion he puts in his reviews is simply contagious! This brings me to today’s thoughts on how much do you really need to spend to [...]
After yesterday’s disappointment of Canon’s non announcement, my mind revisits all the ifs, buts, facts and myths that go into the final decision of which camera I’m going to get. The sad truth is that there is no “one perfect” solution out there. Every time I think I’ve got my kit figured out, I find a [...]
August 18th 2009. A day before the the rumored date of the rumored announcement, of the rumored new Canon camera: http://www.canonrumors.com/2009/08/upcoming-releases-cr3/ Only to find out that the HDDSLRs will be only announced on September 1st… ;( With 5D’s out of stock in Amazon and B&H, it does feel quite plausible that a new model/update could [...]
Not long ago, I posted an article about sensor cleaning. It had a huge response and it’s still visited regularly today. It’s a problem that affects us all, sooner or later… and it isn’t going away anytime soon.!! As you may know, dust bunnies are not so hard to remove on stills, at least on [...]
Makes me feel old writing a title like that… but what is old in this ever evolving industry??? By the way, if you’re not feeling nostalgic and just want to know about CS5, just scroll down until you see the big 5… Those of us in non-linear editing should not forget, we’re riding a very [...]
NAB is absolutely monumental! If you never made it out there, you should! The sheer size is hard too describe… By noon of the first day, people are getting massages in the endless corridors that intertwine the megalomonous halls that host vendors by the hundreds, all together adding up this year to about 1500… but [...]

Thought I’d give you all a sneak peak at NAB 2010 before I post my usual event coverage, which usually takes me a while to get done… This was more like a test, but I guess it turned out acceptable… and I promise I’ll have a proper mic, next time around… Hope you enjoy it! [...]
