We pumped out 106 videos for you this year at NAB 2016, there were 70 up on YouTube with accompanying articles in the first four days alone. As a reader, we understand this must've been a little overwhelming. To make things a little easier for you to digest, we're breaking our content down by category.
Year after year, new cameras and lenses seem to be the most popular draw among the products we get to check out. This year, however, companies seemed to be less focused on creating new technologies, instead opting to upgrade their previous releases to be the best tools possible for the filmmakers who already own them. Or so we thought.
Enter Lytro, potentially the most groundbreaking development in cinematography since color motion picture film. No Film School Founder Ryan Koo got the chance to sit down with Jon Karafin, Head of Light Field Video for Lytro and we got the whole thing on video. In this case, you really do have to see it to believe it.
