After announcing some pretty significant new features in their ALEXA SXT camera lineup, ARRI also announced two new additions to their Master Anamorphic family of lenses - a wide-angle 28mm T1.9 and a 180mm T2.8 MA.

ARRI are taking their new Alexa SXT flagship to a new level at NAB 2016 by adding new high resolution recording modes including 2K and 4K ProRes, Open-Gate 3.4K ProRes and ARRIRAW 3.2K to satisfy the ever increasing needs and demands on modern high-end cinema and broadcast productions.

The Atomos Shogun Inferno is the latest flagship 7-inch 4K Raw recorder and monitor with 10bit HDR Monitoring, 1500 nits brightness, and Raw to Raw CDNG recording up to 4K DCI/UHD 30p or 2K/HD 120p in addition to 4K/60p in ProRes/Avid DNxHR or HD up to 240fps.

The PXW-Z450 is the addition to the Sony XDCAM shoulder-mount camcorder line-up, equipped with a state-of-the-art 4K 2/3-type Exmor-R CMOS Sensor capable of recording 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) in a variety of codecs including the latest XAVC-Intra, XAVC-L and MPEG2 HD 422, with exceptional weight balance and low power consumption alongside networking features.

DJI announced a brand new aerial platform called Matrice 600, which they call "most-powerful and easiest-to-use professional platform DJI has ever produced". The new drone also supports the Ronin MX - the next evolution in the 3-axis stabilisation devices from DJI, which can also be configured into a handheld version for cameras like the RED Epic and ARRI Alexa MINI.
