Mastering the Sony PMW-EX1: A Complete Guide to the Camcorder and the XDCAM EX Workflow is the easiest way to learn both the fundamentals and advanced features of the new Sony EX1 camcorder and its state-of-the-art tapeless workflow.
This 3-hour, 2-DVD workshop includes tutorials, step-by-step examples, and detailed instructions covering the most important aspects of camera setup, menus, shooting techniques, clip naming, file management, clip importing, picture profile settings, basic editing, and even archiving.
This DVD will pay for itself many times over by saving EX1 owners hours of time learning on their own.
About the DVD Workshop: Mastering the Sony PMW-EX1 is a completely independent production with no participation, sponsorship, input, or approval from Sony - so it delivers unbiased information and professional advice that can't be found in the owner's manual.
This workshop is designed to help anyone, from a novice to an experienced ENG/EFP shooter, get the best results from their EX1. The DVD provides real-world examples and suggested techniques that are simple to put into practice.
All Vortex Media training DVDs are carefully planned and written by professional cameramen who have the experience to know what's important to teach and how to teach it without getting bogged down in jargon or unnecessary technical details.
