Zoom F8 Firmware Update and Production Bag NAB 2016
At NAB 2016, we talked with Samuel Greene at the Zoom booth about the Zoom F8. The F8 was actually introduced at NAB 2015, but the last 12 months have seen some interesting improvements to the firmware, with a major release back in December. We cover some of the details here.
Then Samuel also gives us a quick look at the production bag they have created for the Zoom F8 which is custom fitted and keeps the overall package very compact.
Special thanks to Scott Vanderbilt who was kind enough to bring his brand new Sony FS5 camera to film this series.
