Gunleik Groven Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 As there have happened some considerable development in the HD-Video (read SI/Dalsa/Panavision, the high-speed recording camera + other developing companies) , the access to CCDs/CMOS chips seems to be better. How does this influence this project? Gunleik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jan von krogh Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Last I heard they were having problems with the supply of a 4k chip. i wish them all the best, but with red & dalsa in the markets now, it will be already more than hard for the longtime mayor players to sail the coming digital hurricane.... and niche players a la kinetta will have a impossible mission without sustained and massive financial backup. however, would kinetta have been able to deliver, they would have had a killerproduct. but i suppose it seems another american company now is about to fullfill what kinetta dreamed of.

Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted April 13, 2007 Premium Member Share Posted April 13, 2007 It's too bad because I got to handhold the Kinetta prototype and it was ergonomically designed by a documentary shooter -- that aspect was well thought-out. Also Jeff Krienes added an interesting feature: an old-fashioned (from video's early days) "bias light", basically a low-level internal lightbulb (maybe an LED) on a dimmer that flashed the sensor to increase exposure in the low-end areas, a little like flashing a negative.
