NAB 2018 wrap up

NAB Wrap up 2018 - Newsshooter at NAB 2018 from Newsshooter on Vimeo.

NAB 2018 is finally over. After 4 days scouring the show floor like pirates looking for hidden treasure, the Newsshooter team can finally get some much needed sleep.

NAB 2018 saw a plethora of new products being announced (too many items for us to possibly cover). On the final day of the show we sat down with Jeff Lee and Jem Schofield to discuss the latest trends and products we saw on the show floor.

This years show had a little bit of everything, but the trends seem to be RGB lighting, large format cameras, lenses, and of course ProRes RAW.

Erik, Matt, Jeff and Jem talk candidly about this years trends, what they saw, and what products caught their eye. Grab a cup of coffee (or tea if that’s your thing) and sit down on your comfy couch as we run you through NAB 2018.

Thanks to our sponsors AbelCine, Teradek, Aputure, Blackmagic Design, Rode, and Tokina Vista for making our coverage possible. Without these sponsors we can’t provide this coverage for you. An additional thanks to Sachtler, Think Tank Photo and IDX for additional gear.
