By chance and circumstance The Interview is the first major motion picture to debut on the internet. Shot on a production budget of $40m the film has so far taken $30m at the virtual box office. Also in an interview Michael Lynton of Sony Pictures has talked for the first time about the full scale of the hack. 100 terrabytes of data stolen, wiped and the studio’s network is still offline 6 weeks later.

The latest news on cameras, from EOSHD
Samsung are set to release a filmmaker-orientated firmware update for the NX1 with a raft of professional features and improvements. Here’s a summary.
Before the GH4, NX1, A7S and Shogun can you remember what we did for 4K on $1500-$2000 interchangeable lens cameras? No neither can I! 2014 has been a great year with some great technology.
Canon look to have blocked Magic Lantern and new 5D Mark III bodies which won’t roll back to older firmware. Users are presented with an error saying “firmware older than 1.3 on the card, update using newer version”. Source – Magic Lantern forum Via Canon Rumors
[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/115606879[/vimeo] I decided to put the Sony A7S and Atomos Shogun to use shooting some of the snow over Christmas. Shot in Derbyshire (North of England) in 4K with family and at Chatsworth House. Music by singer-songwriter Anne Haight of Berlin!
Samsung NX1 user? I strongly recommend you try this.
Psst! There’s another one on eBay (in the UK) for £4899 with two batteries here. The 1D C is a camera that has been the source of both great wonder and bafflement for me since it was released but it is time to bring it into the EOSHD family and shoot with it!
Canon are finally on the move. They have given the strongest hints yet that they see mirrorless as the future and have several mock-up designs in the lab. This is great news for video. How long before DSLRs are phased out?
