New at NAB? at DVinfo.net

Ethan Cooper · April 20th, 2007, 10:15 AM

I had my head pretty far up Apple and Red's rears at NAB this year so I might have missed it, but did panny announce anything new? I dropped by their booth and took a look around but didnt see anything other than the new larger P2 cards. I was kinda hoping for an HVX upgrade, but unless I'm wrong there wasnt any.

Anyone else who was there and knows of something, feel free to let us know.

By the way, the footage they were showing from the HVX with the redrock looked great. Kinda makes me wanna go out and get a redrock.

Ethan,

As far as I know... they dropped P2 prices (something you can probably find on here).

4gigs discontinued
8gigs $600
16gigs $900
32gigs $1300 (comes out later this year)

Of course the HPX500

The 8GBs p2s are $700.00, not $600.00 and no body has them.

The 16Gb cards aren't expected until next month, and my distributor says they will be allocated.

The 32 GB cards are promised by year's end, but if they follow suit, I doubt we'll see them this year

Panasonic's new announcements were all largely up-market from the HVX200. They showed the 2/3" lineup (HPX500, HPX2000, HPX3000) and the P2 Mobile and P2 Gear devices, as well as announcing 16GB and 32GB cards.

HVX and DVX are unchanged.

They also introduced the 8" monitor, which was really rather cool -- it's got pixel-for-pixel mapping, a waveform monitor, and the same red-peaking focus feature as the JVC HD100.

How much will that monitor go for?
Good day
