The range of cameras, lenses and lighting gear that will be on display at the Media Production Show has been revealed, with attendees of the exhibition able to get hands-on with kit from the likes of Blackmagic Design, Panasonic, Red and Canon.
The Media Production Show, which will be held at The Islington Design Centre in June, will showcase the skills and technology used in the creation of TV, film and commercials.

“Many of the products and innovations they will be bringing to the show at this crucial time in the production calendar will be seen for the first time in the UK.”
Blackmagic Design will demonstrate the latest in its Ultra HD 4K workflows, with 12G-SDI equipped products including its range of digital film cameras, Teranex standards converters, latest version of DaVinci Resolve for editing, colour grading and finishing and its range of ATEM production switchers.
