Videoguys Guide to Understanding HD Formats
by: 
 5/26/2009 2:13 PM
If you are reading this article, I think it’s a pretty safe bet that you have a big screen HD TV in your house. Now that you have it, you wonder how you ever watched sports or the latest action movie or a documentary or even the cooking channel without it. I know that now when I watch standard definition TV, all I can think about is how much better it would look in HD! Lets face it, everything just looks better in HD. Well maybe not everything or everyone, but I think you get the picture. It’s Read More

We also saw the launch of a new product line-up form Matrox, giving them affordable HD I/O devices at every price/ user level.

Videoguys NAB Report - G-Technology
by: 
 5/15/2009 12:03 PM
Just prior to NAB G-Tech and Fabrik were acquired by Hitachi. This is very big and important news. With Hitachi behind them it gives G-Tech a cost, availability and technology advantage that other external drive companies simply will not be able to compete with in the long run. It also shows how important the added value of G-Tech design, performance and reliability is to one of the world’s biggest computer and electronics companies. We think it will be an excellent fit and we expect great thin Read More

Videoguys NAB Report - Focus Enhancements
by: 
 5/15/2009 12:00 PM
We had the chance to get a sneak peak at the new FS-5 version 2 software just before NAB. The FS-5 captures your footage while you shoot in either DV or HDV. Using D.T.E. (Direct To Edit) technology the footage is captured into the format that your NLE application works with best. Regardless of the format you choose the video plays back perfectly on the LCD screen - smooth, crisp and clear. With an iPod Touch and wireless network adapter you are able to control the video (play, pause rewind etc. Read More

Videoguys NAB Report - Adobe
by: 
 5/15/2009 11:59 AM
As usual Adobe had a very big presence at NAB, with round the clock demos of their CS4 product line. Those are all well done and interesting, but what grabs my attention every year is the technology demonstrations. At NAB2008 Adobe was showing off speech recognition technology that was then integrated into Premiere Pro & On Location CS4. Read More

Videoguys NAB Report - Avid Technology
by: 
 5/15/2009 11:58 AM
The buzz around the Avid booth wasn't about new products, but rather a new corporate logo and identity. The new Avid logo uses shapes familiar to video editors to make the word AVID. I must admit that at first glance I liked the logo, but it took me a couple of double takes before I realized the shapes spelled out the word Avid. When you see the logo created using images of people using Avid products it becomes even more powerful. Over the past several years Avid has been acquiring companies lik Read More

Videoguys NAB Report - Sony Creative Software
by: 
 5/15/2009 11:57 AM
At NAB Sony had Vegas 9 featured prominently in it's own special pod adjacent o the gigantic Sony booth in the back of the South Hall. This was a big change form prior years when Sony Vegas was tucked away in a single pod at the Sony booth or located in it's own small booth nowhere near the main Sony booth. After seeing the demo of Vegas Pro 9 and talking to our Sony sales team, it became clear to me that Vegas 9 was no longer the red headed step child in the Sony family. It was finally being em Read More
