Sound Devices doesn’t sound like a company that would make a splash with a video mobile recording device, but they have in a big way. The Pix 220 and 240 are mobile video recorders that create up to 10-bit digital video files and transfer them to a compact flash of solid state drive. Not only can the Sound Devices Pix record from a tape to make an instantaneously digital file, it can convert resolutions of the file at the same time. The Pix 240 and 220 offers real-time conversion from 1080i to 1080p to 720p and allows you to cross, up, and down covert. Sound Devices also lives up to its name and gives you several additional audio inputs on the Pix device. The Pix 240 and 220 have two low noise, high bandwidth inputs that are mic/line switchable. These inputs include limiters, high pass filters, and can generate 48V of phantom Power.

The CameraRibbon will allow freelance camera operators and professional camera crews to stabilize prosumer cameras and Canon DSLR cameras like a shoulder-mounted camera. Its simplistic design makes it easy to use and it will not add volume to your camera kit. Every location production crew should check out the Camera Ribbon.
