New Sony Camera Remote from Alpine Labs

Share

Matt from Alpine Labs sent me this:

I thought you might be interested in learning more about Spark from Alpine Labs for your news section as the remote is compatible with Sony cameras.
Spark is the world’s most versatile, adaptable and affordable camera remote currently available. The compact unit was designed to be flexible to the demands of each individual photographer by offering three distinct modes of shooting:

1) Infrared trigger from 30’ away
2) Tethered trigger
3) App based wireless controller

Each mode has a distinct set of features for varying shooting needs and Spark can last for up to 2,000 hrs of continuous use on the same replaceable coin cell battery. You’d have to purchase 2 or 3 separate accessories to achieve what only one Spark unit can do.

Your audience is able to pick up Spark for the pre-sale price of $44 right now on Kickstarter and then will retail for $56. This makes Spark the most affordable upgrade to any camera kit.

Stick together ten Sony FF cameras and you get this…

At the NAB show Sony did announce the new S3CA E-mount camera which is basically a stripped down version of the Sony A7sII. If you stick 10 of those on the new VR rig created by Radiant Images you get this 360 degree tool.

The S3Ca has no screen, no EVF and nearly no buttons. And you wanna know how much this camera cost? Just click over at Adorama for a big “oh shit” experience :)

Here is an intro of the new S3CA E-mount camera:

With all that A9 buzz we had no time to cover another good news:

Brian Smith reports that Sony expanded their Sony Pro Support network with a new 24/7 phone support in the USA! There are also new walk-in locations in New York and Los Angeles where Pro Support members can speak face-to-face to a tech who knows the cameras. Sony is also also expanding their network with Sony Pro Support for Canada.

  • 24/7 Phone Support in USA
  • Try-Before-You-Buy Loans
  • Walk-in Locations in New York & Los Angeles

More info at AlphaUniverse.

I hope this will be extended to other countries too!
