The latest news from NAB 2010 just for you!!

3D was everywhere at the show: are you ready for it? Production workflows, editing packages, DI and color timing suites with stereoscopic tools, displays, projectors, 3D encoding and authoring solutions for Blu-ray, and more! But 3D wasn't the only thing happening at NAB this year: Avid buys Euphonix; Dolby enters the color reference monitor market and introduces a new reference decoder; Marquise teams with Sondor for economical film scanning and full-featured color correction; and so much more!

Let's look closer:

• 3D, 3D, 3D! Everything's 3D at NAB this year! If there was any one technology that swept the show, as there frequently is, this year it's 3D. On location, in your monitors, in capture and editorial, in your finishing tools and DI, all the way to consumer displays and projection. Learn more, here soon...

• Probably the single biggest piece of news from the NAB Show actually came out on Sunday morning, the day before the show opened: Avid had entered into an agreement to purchase Euphonix. Having sat in the banquet room when the announcement was made at the Avid Reseller Meeting, we can tell you what Avid was thinking! Coming soon!

• But that's not all the Avid news to be had: they announced native Quicktime support, including Pro Res, and AVC Intra support in the upcoming Media Composer 5 release. Check it out here!

• As to be expected, AJA Video always make the Show much more fun! After the introduction of the Ki Pro last year, AJA just continues to make it more and more functional with their upcoming 2.0 firmware release! Avid's announcement of native Pro Res support means that you can now bring that immediate lens to post workflow into the Avid environment! But wait, there's more! How about 8-channel embedded audio or RS-422 9-pin machine control and multiple unit record? And AJA has introduced their new FiDO line of bidirectional fibre-to-HD-SDI products for those long runs you need. And let's not forget IoExpress or the new KUMO routers!
