AGENDA BSC PREVIEW

8. ZEISS Tech giant Zeiss is to premiere its Supreme Prime 15mm lens. The fast T1.8 optic completed the family, renowned for outstanding quality, lightness and versatile look. With a 14-piece, high-end cine lens series – from 15 to 200mm and a maximum aperture of T1.5 to 2.2 – Zeiss covers the full range of focal lengths demanded by filmmakers around the world. “This 15mm is the final piece of the puzzle many cinematographers have been waiting for,” says Christophe Casenave, responsible for cinema products at Zeiss. The Supreme Prime 15 mm T1.8 will be tested for the first time at the show. Visitors can get hands-on with a wide range of high-end cine lenses, with the chance to test out the flaring of Supreme Prime Radiance optics in a purpose-built darkroom on the stand. zeiss.com/cine/supremeprime

9. PAG British company PAG designs and manufactures innovative, high-end power solutions in aid of cinematography and broadcast. Its advanced battery technology is the PAGlink, a unique system of intelligent linking batteries. The newMini PAGlink system offers smaller, lighter batteries, in 50Wh and 99Wh capacities, and V-Mount and Gold Mount formats. These feature standard D-Tap outputs, as well as a USB output unit (2a 5v) that users can swap for others with Hirose, Lemo, D-Tap or 2.1mm connectors. This makes Mini PAGlink perfect for sourcing power to smaller 4K camcorders and their accessories, large format cameras, monitors and panel lights. Batteries of any rated capacity, in any state of charge, can be linked to provide juice, their capacities safely combined. Current can be drawn from each simultaneously, which increases the overall capability. PAG’s newmodular battery design makes servicing quicker and more economic. Individual modules, including the cell pack, can be replaced at authorised service centres around the world, while maintaining compliance with air safety standards. Reusing case parts, output modules and internal electronics contributes towards greater sustainability. paguk.com

10. BEBOB Munich-based battery-maker Bebob is presenting a new portfolio of B-Mount products. The range all support multi-voltage – both 24v and the traditional 12v – so they work on more devices on-set. Four batteries are available, with the B90cine (86Wh), B155cine (156Wh) and B290cine (285Wh) among them. There’s the B90cineHS (HotSwap), too, which can be connected in series with other B-Mounts. Practical features include Bebob Twist D-Tap connection and a USB-C port. These newcomers support the manufacturer’s ‘re-celling’ programme, so can be fitted with new cells once old ones are past their best. Bebob also offers specific V-Mount and Gold Mount adapters – plus dual and quad chargers. bebob.de/en

11. RED Red will bring its latest tech for hands-on demonstrations at the BSC Expo in London, including the flagship DSMC3 camera – the V-Raptor – which will be shown for the first time at a UK show. It features a multi-format sensor with in-camera selection, from 6K S35 to 8K large format. Also making its debut is the in-demand Komodo 6K camera system. With a box-style form factor of only 101.6mm, the Komodo features a breakthrough global shutter sensor measuring 27.03x14.26mm. This innovation maintains Red’s incredibly high

standard of image quality and dynamic range. Exhibit attendees will have the chance to dive into the power of Redcode at the booth’s clever workflow station. red.com
