DEMA 2008: Light and Motion
By Matt J. Weiss, October 29, 2008 @ 02:00 AM (EST)

Light and Motion had a few goodies to show us at DEMA this year. One really cool new item Paul Barnett showed us was the new OLED screen on the Bluefin2 . The OLED screen, or, organic LED monitor, is usually utilized in cell phones and flat screen televisions, but for the first time it's being used for their video housing monitors. Replacing the LCD monitor that has bigger pixels, the OLED's high resolution allows you to see exactly what is in focus because unlike in still images where a slightly less crisp shot may pass, video is unforgiving.

Paul also showed us the new internal flip macro diopters and color filters being used in the Bluefin2 housings. The macro filter allow you to focus and fill the frame with a subject about 5/8 of an inch across.
