PhotoCine Expo News
This past weekend I was at the PhotoCine Expo in Hollywood and I think it’s safe to say that everyone had a great time! There were a number of familiar faces from the world of HDDSLR’s at the expo – including Rodney Charters and Shane Hurlbut. Aside from the familiar faces – a number of new pieces of gear also made an appearance. Given that I hand my hands full with prepping and giving both a workshop and keynote – I thought I’d link to a friend’s excellent videos on the matter (thanks to Jared Abrams at Cinema5D for his coverage of the Expo):
One of the items getting the biggest buzz at the Expo was Redrock Micro’s new microEVF. You can read PhotoCine’s review of the product HERE.
Marshall Electronics also introduced their new 5″ monitor:
And here is Richard Schleuning from Zeiss talking about the importance of manual focus lenses.
and here’s an interview of me as well:

I kinda feel like c5d didn’t really ask that many questions or follow up with what anybody said and their production value (cut aways, shaky footage) wasn’t up to par and that they just wanted to put up videos as fast as possible because they wanted to be first not best. … all in all, a little disappointed with the coverage.
Zacuto is about to announce sth similar. Seems like there will be some choice!
I don’t care who brings the news first, I think Jared Abrams is doing a fine job, and I was glad to have met Jared Abrams briefly (Quick Hand Shake, and a Hello) when I left the expo, Bottom line is he is out there doing it, for better or worse.
But to announce a product and give a release date that is by far an accurate date is misleading and frustrating, and should be punished by potential clients going elsewhere with their hard earned cash, JMO
Thanks Vincent, but this seems to have a terrible announcement VS release date ratio.
