Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Digital Bolex

 

Isn't it just like Terry to get carried away by a clever name?

The Digital Bolex drawings look fun. But the specs, well who knows...

Supposedly they have a prototype, but I don't see any clear pictures of it. They're trying to raise $100K to $250K through Kickstarter. The Kickstarter bio of one of the founders:

I guess they found more than an off-the-shelf sensor. Perhaps they're repurposing some industrial block camera. If it works, that's fine by me. I really hope they pull this off; could be a great camera. But I'm not buying the first off the line...

Would love to hear what Jeff Kreines thinks of this.
