We don’t even leave to explore the NABshow for a few days, and I’m already checking out new equipment. I’m excited to see first hand the new FireStore FS-5 from Focus Enhancements.
At quick first glance, it looks as if it has a monitor to view video on the unit itself, and wi-fi capability which lets you log-in remotely and tag your video. This is getting more and more like Max Headroom every day.
From the press release:
Tag media on the fly.
The Focus FS-5 Portable DTE Recorder lets you personalize and optimize workflow-while you shoot. With your wireless handheld device or laptop, you can access the FS-5 through a browser and assign custom metadata to video while you’re recording. When you transfer footage from the FS-5 to your NLE system or PX Media Server, all of the information that you assigned during the shoot goes with the clips, saving you hours or even days of logging time.
