Adam Wilt

Adam Wilt has been working off and on in film and video for the past thirty years, while paying the bills writing software for animation, automation, broadcast graphics, and real-time control for companies including Abekas, Pinnacle, Omneon, CBS, and ABC.

Since 1997 his website, adamwilt.com, has been a popular reference for information on the DV formats. He has reviewed cameras for DV Magazine and written its "Technical Difficulties" column, and taught classes and led panels at NAB, IBC, and DV Expo. He co-authored the book,"Optimizing Your Final Cut Pro System", part of the Apple Pro Training series; he hopes you'll buy a copy, as there's still a large advance to be paid off.

Review: Panasonic AG-HPX370 1/3” 3-MOS P2 HD Camcorder

The HPX370 offers 50/60Hz AVC-Intra and DV-format recording, and improves noise, sensitivity, and skew over the HPX300.

Panasonic AG-HPX370

The Panasonic AG-HPX370 (US$11,700 list; $9,200 street price) is a 1/3” 3-MOS shoulder-mount HD camcorder with interchangeable lenses. It records everything from 480i to 1080p in 10-bit AVC-Intra 50/100 and 8-bit DV/DVCPRO50/DVCPROHD formats, with variable frame rates in 720p. Its MOS sensors capture a true 1920x1080 image with remarkably high sensitivity and low noise; and its “rolling shutter” skew is comparable to other affordable high-quality CMOS cameras like the PMW-EX series Sonys.

Mysterium-X Exposed, part 1

A quick ‘n’ dirty comparison of RED’s M and M-X sensors.

We received our first RED ONE back from the Mysterium-X upgrade, so without further ado, I slapped it on a tripod and compared it to a RED ONE with the original Mysterium sensor.

After Effects and Motion Share and Compare

Mark Spencer | 07/21- 07:25 AM

MacBreak Studio Special Episode

On this week’s MacBreak Studio, I host Steve Taylor - an LA-based motion graphics designer who’s tool of choice is After Effects. I thought it would be fun and interesting to compare how After Effects and Motion handle different motion graphics tasks and so this is the first of a series of “share and compare” sessions that looks at cameras and null objects in both After Effects and Motion. Enjoy.
