Working with XDCAM EX (or other file based) material.
he one big question of everyones lips is how do you archive your material? Well here are my thoughts and some ideas. The most important thing is to think ahead and plan your end to end workflow.

NextoDI NVS2525 Dual Drive Backup device
Those clever Korean’s at Nexto DI have been at it again. At first glance this might appear to be one of the original NVS2500 backup devices, which in itself is a very clever device that in my mind no self respecting solid state shooter should be without.

Lens Choices for the PMW-F3

MTF services to produce Nikon adapter for F3
Well no surprises here to be honest but Mike Tapa of MTF has already finalised the design of an adapter that will allow users of Sony’s still to be released PMW-F3 to use low cost (compared to PL) Nikon DSLR lenses.
