GoPro Joins the 4K Revolution With The Hero3

Hero3 Black Becomes the Smallest Cinema Camera

By Clint Milby | October 17, 2012

Last week, if you listened closely, you could hear a collective sigh of relief from the owners of the Hero2 prompted by the release of the Protune, the Hero2's new firmware. Why the excitement? Protune endowed the camera to shoot 24p -- definitely noteworthy... However, if the release of Protune was interesting, GoPro's midnight announcement of a brand new camera system, the GoPro Hero3 is mind blowing. Read More

Blackmagic Steals NAB 2012 With Their New Cinema Camera

New Super Camera Packs a 2.5K Sensor For Less Than $3000.00

By Clint Milby | April 30, 2012

If you heard a collective gasp coming from about ninety thousand people in Las Vegas last week, it was most likely in reaction to Blackmagic's ground breaking announcement that they are now officially a camera manufacturer. On April 16, 2012, Blackmagic Design unleashed the Blackmagic Cinema Camera on NAB and the world. It's not clear whether this will be a trend or a one time venture, but either way, this first effort at an image capture device packs a massive punch for the price. Read More

The Smoke and Mirrors Behind Sweden’s Brokendoll

Brett Richards Tells Why His Post Is Up In Smoke

By Clint Milby | December 20, 2011

Winner of numerous ProMax awards in 2011, Sweden-based, boutique production company Brokendoll has garnered acclaim with their self-described "visually intense" high end productions for advertising, television and web. You might think a company with this level of initial success would also have goals of growing, but according to Brett Richards, Brokendoll is intent on keeping their footprint small to maintain the quality of their productions, "It is important to the quality of the production that we have the right team on each job, so we avoid large, in house teams to maximize our flexibility."

Redrock Micro Brings Order To Unruly Cables

Redrock Micro Brings Order To Unruly Cables

Innovative microTies Promise To Tie Up Loose Ends

By Clint Milby | September 15, 2011

Your cat may like them. If you have a touch of OCD you might enjoy unraveling a nice ball of wires to calm your nerves.   However, disconnect a power cable on a light or your HDMI cable during a shoot and it could cost you a shot, which could cost you a job. Especially for the HDSLR shooters, the myriad of wired accessories continues to grow, and so do the chances of you getting tied up knots. Electric tape or grip tape work, but they aren't very dependable, and they make your cables and rig sticky. There's the velcro ties, but they're like socks that some how vanish without a trace. So what's the solution? Enter Redrock Micro's microTies.
