At Band Pro's One World on HD Open House back in December debuted one of Sony's newest cameras, the HDC-P1. This compact, box-style camera does full HD with a 2/3" CCD sensor, B4 mount and variable frame rates, including 24p. Originally conceived as a studio camera, this camera will soon find itself flying off the shelf in pairs because of its natural fit for 3D production.
BLUESHAPE has recently launched MVQUICK on the market- the first product of the HOTSWAP series of equipment that uses high-rate discharge Li-ion technology as a power solution for the ENG camcorder systems. The MVQUICK is intended for usage as an interface between the V-lock plate and the camera. The V-locking mechanisms on both sides guarantee maximum security between connections.
MVQUICK's presentation during IBC2009 was well received and generated intense interest amongst the many operators within the sector (from dealers who retail professional video equipment down to professional videographers)

e-Media Institute updated its 2010 forecasts for Pay-TV in the 19 Western European countries surveyed. The aggregate number of Pay-TV subscribers is expected to surpass the 77 million mark by the end of 2010, a 12.8% increase over the end-2009 figure of 68.5 million. Cable will enter into the lead among the four main Pay-TV platforms (IPTV, cable, satellite, and DTT), accounting for a majority (37%) of Pay-TV subscribers by year-end, due primarily to operators' continuing efforts to migrate customers from basic access-only analogue cable services (not included in the Pay-TV total) to digital TV. IPTV and DTT Pay-TV subscriptions will account for 17% and 12% of the region's base, respectively. On the downside, satellite Pay-TV services will lose ground to other platforms, ending 2010 with an estimated 34% of total Pay-TV subscribers in the region, down from 36% one year earlier.
