Together with DSLR experts Philip Bloom, Sebastian Wiegärtner and Nino Leitner, Panasonic is launching a new workshop series in August 2011 dealing with the advantages and disadvantages of DSLR cameras and handling the Panasonic AG-AF101 camcorder.
According to the company, cinematographers Philip Bloom (London), Sebastian Wiegärtner (Nuremberg) and Nino Leitner (Vienna) will lead this new Panasonic “hands-on” workshop series.
Single-lens reflex cameras with professional HD video functionality and new large-sensor camcorders such as the Panasonic AG AF101 already play an important role in many international productions.
Whether productions with Georg Lucas or for Wolfgang Joop, or award-winning documentaries – the modern CamBusters leave no doubt about their determination to make use of the unique opportunities offered by this new camera generation.
