Red Epic Dragon sensor updates start tomorrow for $8,500, watch the actual process at NAB

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div class="copy post-body" dir="ltr" itemprop="text" style="text-align: left;"> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Red to start performing Epic Dragon sensor updates tomorrow at its NAB booth" data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/red-dragon-upgrades-04-08-13-01jpg.jpg" /></div>Red has announced that Dragon sensor updates will start tomorrow for Epic-M and Epic-X owners and, interestingly, is letting owners (and the public) see the operation for themselves at its NAB booth. The new sensor will bring 6K resolution, 120 fps at 5K and 15+ stops of dynamic range in a slightly larger format, according to Red. Early adopters will be able to pre-order now for $8,500, while Epic owners who wait until Thursday or later will be able to grab the update for $9,500. Filmmakers hoping for a new Epic-M with the Dragon instead of the Mysterium-X sensor will be able to pre-order tomorrow for $29,000 or so. Meanwhile, there's good news for those with the more budget-minded Scarlet -- they'll be able to upgrade to the Epic directly or get a 6k Dragon sensor and ASICs, with pricing details coming tomorrow and pre-orders launching on Thursday. Red may have a tough row to hoe with recent NAB news from the likes of BlackMagic Design and Vision Systems, but how many companies will actually let you watch your camera get operated on?

Blackmagic's Production Camera 4K gets full size cinema sensor, $3,995 pricetag

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div class="copy post-body" dir="ltr" itemprop="text" style="text-align: left;"> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Image" data-src-height="320" data-src-width="515" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/blackmagic4klede.jpg" /></div>No matter how hard companies try and keep secrets, when it comes to trade show floors there's always the risk that someone will snap a picture and steal their thunder. The latest casualty is Blackmagic, which will be announcing both a Pocket Cinema Camera and this, its Production Camera 4K. We're fairly sure that this will sit above its Cinema Camera, offering a bigger Super 35 sensor, global shutter and Thunderbolt connector alongside the SSD recorder, touchscreen LCD and EF lens mount we found on last year's model. When the company gets around to announcing the hardware properly, it'll be available for $3,995 -- low enough to make even the most ardent of DSLR fans think twice.<br /> [Image Credit: Danielo Garcia]<br /> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Blackmagics Production Camera 4K gets full size sensor, $3,995 pricetag" data-src-height="735" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/blackmagicbreak-1365406617.jpg" /></div></div></div>

Blackmagic's $995 Micro Four Thirds Pocket Cinema Camera gets snapped at NAB

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div class="copy post-body" dir="ltr" itemprop="text" style="text-align: left;"> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Image" data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/blackmagic.jpg" /></div>We may lament the death of the point-and-shoot, but we doubt Blackmagic's forthcoming Pocket Cinema Camera will go as quietly into the night. Whilst wandering the halls at NAB, Danielo Garcia snapped a billboard announcing the device a little before its expected arrival time. The stats in the promotional flag (in full, after the break) reveals that it's the budget-brother of Blackmagic's Cinema Camera MFT. This new unit keeps the same Micro Four Thirds lens mount, with a Super-16 Cinema 1080HD sensor, 13 stops of dynamic range, lossless CinemaDNG RAW recording and Micro HDMI monitoring. When it's officially announced, the unit will retail for $995, putting smiles on the faces of indie filmmakers and people who need their Disneyland recordings ready for the silver screen.<br /> [Image Credit: Danielo Garcia]<br /> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Image" data-src-height="735" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/blackmagicbreak.jpg" /></div></div></div>

Fusion-io bumps its ioFX super-SSD to 1.6TB, announces HP Workstation Z integration

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <img alt="Fusionio bumps its ioFX superSSD to 16TB, announces HP Workstation Z integration" data-src-height="357" data-src-width="619" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/screenshot4713841am-3-1365338707.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> We have a feeling graphics artists are going to be begging their studios for Fusion-io's latest ioFX super-SSD. After receiving critical acclaim for its 460GB version, the company has today introduced a massively-speced 1.6TB variant at NAB. Despite the space increase, the new unit is not bigger than its older sibling. In related news, HP has also signed on to integrate ioFX into its HP Z 420, 620 and 820 all-in-ones, and it'll also give current workstation owners the option to simply add the card to their existing machines. Fusion won't be releasing any details about pricing for the 1.6TB ioFX just yet -- that'll remain under wraps until its released this summer. For now, movie makers can net the 460GB one for $2K (about $500 less that its release price). Full press release after the break.</div></div>
