Last week I shot a documentary for broadcast in Austria. It was a great experience to be part on this set, because it will be one of the first documentaries for broadcast shot with DSLR’s in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Thanks to Director Frank Suffert, who made this possible! Big thanks to this wonderful crew: Frank, Matt and Christopher! Here are some pictures of the shoot! I will update this blog-entry soon, because I’m waiting for some more pictures!

Denz won the technical Oscar for special efforts and consequent development in 1996. This weekend I will shoot my first short film with the Denz Canon 7D Evo PL! They sent me two Zeiss Arriflex lenses, one 25 mm 1.2 and one 85 mm 1.4. Here you can watch a short video about the Canon 7D EVO PL: Here are some facts about the PL-Modification of the Canon DSLR-Range: The originally used sensor-block will be replaced by a new custom made sensor-block, so that the camera-body…
This year I wasn’t on NAB, but next year I will fly to Las Vegas (together with Micha Schmidt, Nino Leitner and Mario Feil) and visit this great fair trade.For those who have missed it too, I have made a great DSLR round up of NAB 2010. Some of the videos are from the great Dan Chung and you can watch them on Vimeo too! Just follow this link to see more videos of NAB 2010 in Las Vegas. My personal highlight was the Remote Follow Focus from Redrock on NAB. I hope this gear will keep what it promises.
