Teradek just announced their latest addition to the Bolt family - the Teradek Bolt 500, now more compact than ever, with budget productions in mind. Much like the Bolt 1000 and 3000, the new Bolt 500 includes Metadata and timecode support, 3D LUTs, dual inputs/outputs, multicast capable, manual frequency selection and USB 3.0 GRAB Engine.

Canon announced the details of an upcoming firmware update for their Canon C300 mark II camera, which will add audio in 2K crop mode and more new functions. The new firmware is expected to land in mid December.

The Odyssey7Q+ and Odyssey7Q already support more RAW camera signals than any other external Raw recorder on the market, and earlier today Convergent Design announced they are adding 2K and 4K RAW support for the new Sony PXW-FS7 II camera, which was announced yesterday.

The new Sony PXW-FS7 II features an electronic variable ND filter, a new locking-type E-mount, BT.2020 support and other mechanical design improvements such as tool-less adjustment for the hand grip extension, better VF/LDC mounting rod system and a new Viewfinder hood.

Hollywood DP, Russell Carpenter, ASC (True Lies, Titanic, Charlie's Angels) and Canon Explorer Of Light Tyler Stableford show off the impressive dynamic range, low light performance and versatility of the Canon EOS C700 in new promo called "The Calling".
