Full format describes the tools, techniques and hardware emerging around the creation of motion content using cameras with sensors of approximately 36mm x 24mm or larger. These systems offer distinct advantages in terms of aesthetics, lens choice, high resolution, multiple recording formats, expanded options in post, and overall versatility.
With any new format comes excitement, and a multitude of questions. We're here, as always, with the equipment selection, technical know-how, and services to help you enter this new frontier. Explore all this and more at our NAB booth #C8215. Scroll down to learn more about what else we'll be showcasing at NAB.
Our booth #C8215 will feature cameras for full format cinema: the ARRI ALEXA LF, Canon C700 FF, RED MONSTRO, and Sony VENICE. We'll also have the relevant lenses from Angenieux, Canon, Cooke, IB/E Optics, Leica, Sigma, ZEISS, and others. Stop by to get hands-on and ask questions.
Taught by AbelCine and outside instructors, topics include cameras, DIT skills, directing, lighting, and post. From 101 to master classes, these courses provide the in-depth, practical instruction that professionals need. We’ll be adding more classes all the time, so keep checking for new additions.
Our booth will showcase the latest in Cameo, the line of products designed to streamline camera-related workflows and serve as the “glue” between traditional accessories. Cameo: often understated, always essential.
We'll be bringing you our ever-popular NAB blogs, as we send our techs out to report on some of the biggest news and “must sees” of the show. This year we’ve partnered with the Newsshooter team to bring you even more content from the show floor, so watch this space for our latest coverage!
