On Demand Webcast:
Effective Loudness Management and Compliance for Media Providers

Sponsored by Harris
Presented by: Jay Yeary, Chairman of the Atlanta AES Section

Are you CALM about controlling your facility’s audio loudness? New regulations require broadcasters and content producers to carefully manage audio levels according to a complex set of standards and guidelines. It’s no longer adequate to simply watch levels via VU or peak meters and “keep it out of the red.”

Fortunately, new tools are available to help make audio control an automated and hands-off process.

This audio-focus webcast will examine new real-time loudness monitor and correction technology. These solutions help engineers regulate the perceived loudness of multiple audio channels across any content to prevent viewer complaints. If you work with audio, the techniques learned in this webcast will make your job easier and your audio cleaner. Watch Now

What You Need to Know: Camera Lenses

The history of field lenses is illustrated by a race to both higher optical quality and an ever-increasing zoom ratio/focal length extension envelope. With these improvements and longer telephoto lengths, lenses became more susceptible to even minor wind or operator movement.

To address the problem of obtaining stable images when shooting with handheld and portable cameras using zoom lenses, Canon engineers developed a new lens technology called variable-angle prism image-stabilization (VAP-IS), which corrects for low-frequency lens vibration. The result is superior HD imagery even when a camera operator is moving or the camera is mounted in a vibration-prone location, like a helicopter or camera stand. In this two-part series Larry Thorpe delves inside the Canon VAP-IS. You'll learn how the technology works and why it can improve video imagery and make shooting easier in difficult conditions.
