Release version of Blender 2.64 available

04.10.2012

Blender Foundation 2.62 screenshot UV mapping stitchingPopular 3D open source software Blender has been released in version 2.64. This release was targeted at improving Blender for the Mango open movie project, along with integrating branches and patches from the past years. The focus was on creating a full VFX pipeline, with improved motion tracking using a planar tracker, easier green screen keying, and a new mask editor. A new tile based compositing system was added, along with more advanced color management. Cycles rendering got dozens of smaller features and improvements resulting from its use in production. Sculpting now supports masks, and a skin modifier was added to quickly create a model from skeletons. The game engine adds improved shadows and physics, as well as better COLLADA support (more). Windows, Linux and Mac OS X installers can be downloaded here. [source]

Sony introduces the PMW-300 semi-shoulder mount camcorder
14.06.2013

Sony PMW-300 XDCAM photo Sony announced new PMW-300 XDCAM camcorder, equipped with the 1/2-type Exmor Full HD 3CMOS sensors capable of delivering excellent images even in low-light conditions. An evolution of Sony's popular PMW-EX3, the PMW-300 is able to record 50Mbps HD material in MPEG HD422. The high bit rate ensures excellent capture of fast moving objects, while its chroma subsampling feature is perfect for a wide range of video encoding areas such as VFX and green screen applications. The camcorder can also be upgraded in the future (2014) to support Sony's new XAVC codec, extending the lifecycle of the product to ensure maximum return on investment. PMW-300 with a 14x zoom lens will be available in the market in October 2013. PMW-300 with a 16x zoom lens is currently under development targeting to be available within 2013. [source]
