4 amazing new camera TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS
Canon is launching a new 35mm camera with a maximum ISO of 4,000,000. In short, it means the device can practically see in the dark, without any additional filters or enhancements.
Why is this so exciting?
Because when you currently look at the night sky, you see a lot more colors than just black and white, especially during dusk and dawn. Canon’s camera should be able to capture vivid photos even in low-light environments.
Sadly, most consumers won’t be getting their hands on it. The ME20F-SH camera will cost in excess of $30,000 at launch.
Canon has created a new version of its low light super camera which shoots colour HD in extreme low light conditions. The ME20F-SHN can capture subjects illuminated with less than 0.0005 lux and takes advantage of the combination of a large full frame sensor and a resolution of only 2.26MP to make the most of that incoming light. This results in a maximum ISO in excess of 4 million (+75db). The original camera seemed to be designed with extreme low light cinema EOS applications in mind. For instance it features both Canon Log and Wide DR and has a Canon EF mount with Cinema Lock, but the camera has now been retooled with additional network capability for wired Ethernet applications.
The camera has also been upgraded to work better in well lit environments too. The Custom Picture menu has been upgraded, with the addition of the Crisp Img function, which obtains sharp images in well-lit environments while keeping the noise low in low light situations. Even greater detail can be captured in low-light environments by removing the IR cut filter when shooting in infrared mode. link

When talking about cameras you may have heard of '*number*K'. This refers to the amount of pixels on the cameras sensor. So the more pixels a camera has the clearer the picture is.
As you can see from the diagram above the more pixels the bigger the image is. Therefore the clearer the image is. This allows producers to film a much clearer image at a phenomenally high quality. This then has a beneficial knock on affect onto the editing process, Cropping, Editing and Colour correction.

3. Go Pro Max
'The GoPro Max has dual 180-degree lenses that shoot 16.6-megapixel 360-degree photos, 5.5-megapixel 4:3 shots from just one of the cameras (what GoPro is calling “Max SuperView” photos), and super cool 270-degree 6.2-megapixel panoramic photos called PowerPanos' link
This GoPro is like non other. It is a 360 camera. This means that the camera records a 360 degrees angle. This is a unique feature that really lifts the limitations of action cameras, you will never miss a shot! Action can occur all around when you are in nature or doing an extreme activity. The best part of the GoPro Max is that it completely rewrites the guidelines for filming. The angles and shots are so unique it means that the audience are bound to the screen, fascinated by the angles and obscurity of the video.

This camera is probably the the second best camera that has an industry use. This camera is not only funky lookin but it also can shoot 3D video this sounds pretty cool. But 3D cameras tried to make an entry into the entertainment industry a number of years ago but there just wasn't the demand for it. However there is another industry that has found a use for these cameras, the construction and architecture industry. Builder and architects will go into a space with this camera and film it on a tripod. The point of this is that they can use the 3D image to calculate the size of walls, floor, windows and many other building features. This saves them time but it also means they can be more productive as well.
