Canon have just released details of a new pair of pro video camcorders. I was a little surprised to see this information now with just a week to go till IBC. Perhaps there is more in store for IBC? The XF105 and XF100 use a single full raster sensor to shoot 1920×1080 HD which is [...]
I’ve know this for a while, but have not been able to tell you until now. The Hurricane 3D rig is to be manufactured by Genus. Genus are perfect partners for this project as they already manufacture a wide range of professional video and DSLR accessories including Matte boxes, follow focus units and camera support [...]
Hi all. For a while I used a Zalman M220W as a monitor for my editing (works great with stereoscopic toolbox) but decided I wanted to upgrade to the newer 1920×1080 M215W. The M215 has been out for a few months but they can be hard to get hold of and I wasn’t expecting it [...]
I’m a bit late on this as I’ve been away, but Panasonic have announced a stereoscopic micro 4/3′s lens for their camera range as well as a consumer S3D camcorder (well it’s actually a 2D camcorder with a conversion lens). The Panasonic 3D lens incorporates 2 lenses and is designed to work with the Lumix [...]
Just a quick note to say that there’s still a couple of places left for my 3D workshop in Prague on the 27th of June (Tuesday). Contact O-Video if you wish to book a spot. They are normally very popular and everyone seems to find them useful and informative. I cover the basics of S3D [...]

My 3D rig now has a name, we are calling it the Hurricane rig. It needed a name so that when talking to the design team and factory they know what we are talking about. I have a deal worked out with a well known, high quality brand for production and distribution of the rig [...]

Hello all, I’m having a great time meeting all the blog readers and forum contributors from south East Asia. I’m in Singapore at Broadcast Asia doing some short seminars on XDCAM sensors and media as well as stereoscopic production. i spend most of my time hanging out around the 3D area of the Sony Booth, [...]
I’ve had this monitor for a couple of months now and I have to say it has proven to be an amazing tool. While it can provide a 3D view using shutter glasses, it is at it’s most useful when used in Anaglyph mode. I don’t wear the glasses to view in 3D a lot [...]
