Mirrorless camera sales don't reflect potential
USA TODAY
Even though the image quality is on par with traditional DSLRs, mirrorless cameras don't have as many moving parts and almost always come in smaller, lighter bodies.

Very interesting to see the differences between the USA and the rest of the world on mirrorless acceptance

I have been shooting a feature film called No Ordinary Hero with the new Canon 5D Mk III using the clean video output to an Atomos Ninja 2 and recording to ProRes 422 Hq. This was a conscious choice for several reasons, the main one being that we have a dozen or so FX shots, mostly green screen composites and we needed the fattest “negative” our low budget film could afford...

Intel's Thunderbolt 2: Everything You Need to Know

Intel's Thunderbolt 2: Everything You Need to Know | HDSLR | Scoop.it

At Computex, Intel officially branded its next-generation Thunderbolt as Thunderbolt 2. As a recap, current Ivy Bridge platforms use Cactus Ridge Thunderbolt controllers while newly launched Haswell platforms use Redwood Ridge. Redwood Ridge maintains feature compatibility, but you get official support for DisplayPort 1.2 (and 4K resolution) if you're using a DisplayPort monitor. This extension of DP 1.2 support does not apply to Thunderbolt displays or DP 1.2 displays connected to a Thunderbolt chain however. The explanation is simple. Redwood Ridge won't be sold for use in devices, only host computers, which is why you can't plug a 4K DP 1.2 display into a Thunderbolt chain and have it work (since none of the members of the chain will support 4K passthrough).
