NAB 2014: NewsShooter Canon from Teradek on Vimeo.

Canon USA’s Chuck Westfall talks to me about the company’s new 17-120mm lens servo zoom lens. I also asked him where he thinks Canon is headed – it is clear that technology like Dual Pixel CMOS AF is changing the game for some users.

I ask Chuck about how Canon is responding to new cameras like the Sony a7S and Panasonic GH4. He admits that “Canon has been a little conservative to this point” but fully expects Canon to create products that meet market demand in the future.
