Sony’s PMW-EX1 solid state camera
Sony announce their latest HD camera last week in New York. The PMW-EX1 uses Sony’s SxS PRO ExpressCard for recording and playback. The format should lead to lower power consumption than PCMCIA cards. With two SxS slots loaded with 16GB each, the camera can record over 100 minutes of high quality HD footage at 35Mb/sec, or 140 minutes at 25Mb/sec, in MP4 format. The estimated price of the new camera is expected to be about $8000 US. You can read more about the PMW-EX1 at the Sony site.
