Sony's NAB 2014 Plans: 4K & Your Questions Answered

2 minute read

Through its company blog, Sony revealed a slate of interactive broadcasts, streamed live from NAB 2014. And the best part: you can submit your questions ahead of time!

Panasonic's release of the budget-friendly GH4 has put other camera manufacturers on their toes, making it more important than ever to connect to their customers and communicate their respective visions for 4K (and beyond). Chief rival Sony made waves a few months back with its 4K for $2K camcorder, the FDR-AX100, but it hasn't inspired the level of excitement generated by the Panny 4K DSLR.

Of course, Sony makes other 4K cameras, including the pro-level F5 and F55, as well as a slew of other devices that populate its 4K ecosystem. But for those that don't regularly work with Sony products, you probably have some questions concerning workflow.

Well, you're in luck! As part of Sony's NAB 2014, the tech giant is engaging the public through Beyond Definition, a program of interactive Q&A sessions filmed and streamed live from its NAB 2014 booth. Sony is calling for questions, asked during the live stream or submitted beforehand (via the handy links provided below).

From Sony's Blog:

Come and check out Sony NAB Live, a series of interactive sessions streamed live from the Sony booth at NAB 2014 in Las Vegas. Sessions will take place in the morning and late afternoon covering a broad range of topics including the latest in cloud based production tools, portable live production systems and 4K acquisition and workflow. The sessions will field questions from viewers in attendance at the show floor and online via Twitter using the hashtag #SonyNAB.
