My first pair of Oakleys were Oakley “Frogskins” that I bought in the 80’s. Loved them. Until I recently found something a little cooler. Yes, the creator of Oakley Sunglasses is also responsible for the RED camera that Peter Jackson shoots with.
Great article from Inc. magazine.
And now Jim Jannard, creator of said RED camera, is dissing on the Canon C500. Is it sour grapes, or is he correct? He is a Mad Scientist, that’s for sure.
I’m constantly amazed at the ingenuity that is coming out of the uses of smartphones.
Although as of today it’s not for sale to the public, this looks like a fantastic addition to FRAMES & PIXELS’ audio arsenal. The RODE smartLav plugs to any iOS or Android device, allowing it to record directly to your phone. Audio can then be sent via Dropbox or downloaded through iTunes. Given that on any shoot we probably have a minimum of 2 iPhones, the convenience factor really goes up. RODE makes some great microphones, so I’ve got pretty high hopes for this as a solution.
The iOS app is available here.
More information on the RODE smartLav is available here.
