James Cameron's influence at SONY

not really. but Playstation 3 is going 3D next year, following the latest trends of hollywood.

They are adding a new 3D mode that will work with all existing games. Just need a new TV thats 3D compatible.

I don't get it Sony?

Soooo Sony, you're releasing two new HDV cameras. Brilliant. Now seems like a great time to invest 4-6k in dying and limited technology. Sign us up!

These would have been great cameras 2 years ago. I'll forgive you since I like ur EX1 so much. :)

OOOooo, new sony goodies!

In a couple weeks sony will be releasing their 32GB SXS pro card for the EX1 and EX3 cameras for the listed price of $1,500. This will provide up to 100mins of full 1920 X 1080 at 35mbps recording time!

They are also releasing a hard disk drive (HDD), the PHU-60k which will provide 60GB of external storage with a USB2.0 interface. Recording time of 200mins in full HQ mode. Basically this HDD acts as a giant SxS card and gives you you the same quick start recording and thumbnail viewability. It's all supposed to withstand a 1.5meter drop. We've all been clutses on set so thats a plus! The PHU-60k will go for $1000.

here's a pic of the HDD:

another ex-1 video we like

We love the Sony EX-1 so much and it is great to see that others are really using it to the full potential. Vimeo is a great site to see some examples of other people's work with the EX-1. One of them is this clip by Philip Bloom. Although we can't embed this in HD, head on over to the site and see it in HD there...
