Sony Presents<br />
NEX-FS700<br />
pro.sony.com<br />
The Sony NEX-FS700 acquires the exciting and powerful<br />
capability to output 2K RAW and 4K RAW to the<br />
external Sony AXS-R5 recording system with the introduction<br />
of the HXR-IFR5 interface unit. With 12-bit<br />
precision, 2K RAW recording can be achieved at up<br />
to 240fps continuously without reduction in resolution<br />
or windowing the imager. 4K RAW can be achieved<br />
at up to 60 fps continuous recording. Additionally,<br />
120fps Real Time 4 second “burst” 4K recording can<br />
be achieved. With this combined solution you have the<br />
added benefit of simultaneous RAW recording with<br />
onboard AVCHD for proxy recording. For maximum<br />
performance, SLOG 2 is now added to the picture<br />
profile for use as a monitor LUT allowing incredible<br />
dynamic range performance. In addition to the Sony<br />
solution, Convergent Design’s new Odyssey 7Q will<br />
also be able to record the 2K RAW at up to 240fps,<br />
and a 4K signal from the FS700 for increased flexibility.<br />

New Transvideo 7”<br />
RainbowHD On-board<br />
Monitor<br />
www.transvideointl.com<br />
The new Transvideo 7” RainbowHD is a revolutionary<br />
three-in-one production monitor. Three pre-programmed<br />
modes for assistant, operator/director and<br />
DIT are each designed for a specific set assignment.<br />
Various tools can be called up from each mode. The 7”<br />
HD professional monitor has an extra-slim profile with<br />
a total volume that is 30% smaller than other 7” monitors.<br />
Its weight of 1.5 lbs is ideal for new, light digital<br />
cameras. With a viewing angle of 160-degrees vertical<br />
and horizontal, its visibility in full sun is unrivaled. Yet, it<br />
draws only 12w. On a dark set, its dimmable backlight<br />
keeps it unnoticed. It accepts all HD formats, composite<br />
and HDMI with an HDMI to SDI up-converter. Since<br />
1985, Transvideo has pioneered flat panel technology,<br />
designing high-end equipment for film, digital cinema,<br />
broadcast, and 3D stereography.<br />
