View Full Version : When Will Camera Be Avalible?

Jason Rodriguez August 6th, 2006, 04:01 PM Hi David, Not to worry, we're working on it, adding in some great new features (based on your requests), qualifying equipment, adding more field-test projects, and getting ready for production parts . . . I'm not allowed to tell you exactly when we're going to ship, but let's just say relatively "soon" ;) John Benton August 6th, 2006, 06:35 PM Jason, To clarify, there are 2 versions of the SI-1920 correct? --The one that appeared at NAB with the swappable HD --& the SI-1920 HD (mini) that David Newman shot that nice short with. maybe they are similar core versions & what was shown at NAB didn't need a laptop to stream as it was recording to a HDrive (also had a touch screen). But for the bare bones we could hook to and control with a laptop Time Frame for both is soon? and ballpark Cost of each? Forgive me, I am trying to navigate the info on each - I am extremely interested with what Mr. Newman shot his short with Specs/ Size/ Intechangable Lenses & the sheer look are fantastic Thanks, J Heath McKnight August 6th, 2006, 09:27 PM I believe there is one that's 2k and a 1080i/p model that is a bit smaller. I think. Jason, Ari, can you confirm/deny? Thanks, heath David Mintzer August 7th, 2006, 09:33 AM Hi David, Not to worry, we're working on it, adding in some great new features (based on your requests), qualifying equipment, adding more field-test projects, and getting ready for production parts . . .

John Benton August 7th, 2006, 10:53 AM I believe there is one that's 2k and a 1080i/p model that is a bit smaller. I think. Jason, Ari, can you confirm/deny? Thanks, heath Thanks Heath, I don't know why I think this doesn't have to do with the size - I thought that the size was related to having a processor in camera that could enable recording to hard drive. Don Donatello August 7th, 2006, 10:19 PM from what i recall ... there are 2 versiosn of the camera .. mini - which is the sensor with lens mount - you connect to your computer .. then there is the full body model that was shown at NAB but the body shown was a beta model design - not the final model design ... they have been listening to all the post - the final design should take into account what has been posted/requested ...also on the full body model the sensor block can be separated from the body ( recorder) ... as far as i recall there is only a 1920x1080 camera available this fall not a 2k. John Benton August 8th, 2006, 07:23 AM Good. Thanks Don, I can't wait for these cameras to come ! |
