Roger, what an awesome idea. I'm looking at my Bealieu camera and thinking: c-mount lenses ... true depth of field ... a 'video' camera in a 4008 body ... that would be sweet and very post-modern.

I *know* you are going to try it, Roger. That's what I dig about guys like you: you can't have an good idea and not try to implement it. Engineers rule. :D

Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused. Is this something that Eric is interested in (re: post about implementing video tech into a super 8 camera)?

Thanks

SPD card(solid state memory card) is announced at the NAB 2003 by Panasonic. Panasonic is planning to ship them around Spring 2004.

Sony:bule ray disk VS. Panasonic: SPD card????

MAX. Transfer Speed x20/DVCPRO data(25Mbps)
PCMCIA Card interface
rewritable for about 30000 times

I think this small camera is DV camcorder.
The grip of the camera will be the lens cover when you fold it.
40% smaller and lighter than normal DV camcorder.

There is not much information right now. I will keep you updated if I find news about this product.

Interesting - I know this technology has been under way for some time but a bit surpriced that it will be introduced in 2004.

Some companies claim the storage capacity is now up to 2,3 TB (terrabyte, 1000 GB) on a PC card. Super-Duper consumer HD - here we come!
