Michael Davies has joined our team.

New Camera Equipment
We have recently taken order of a Sony EX1 HD tapeless camera. Yes its true, this camera dispenses with the need for tapes and instead stores the video footage on memory cards. The quality has been demonstrated to be superb with 1920 x 1080 HD capabilities, great for tv work but perhaps more impressive when combined with our chromaflex system for blue screen work on web productions.
