American Cinematographer - February 2008 - (Page 19) The Dream Team Thomson Grass Valley Viper FilmStream™ Camera shown with Canon HD-EC Cine Prime Lens. Thomson’s Viper FilmStream Camera and Canon’s HD-EC Lenses The Thomson Grass Valley Viper FilmStream Camera and Canon’s cost-effective HD-EC Prime and Zoom lenses are a true “Dream Team,” providing imagery with superb clarity, sharpness, contrast ratio, color reproduction, and exposure latitude. The camera provides the highest quality digital cinematography images, delivered as three unprocessed wideband 4:4:4 10-bit log outputs. Thomson Grass Valley’s “film-like” postproduction workflow provides excellent 35mm film outputs and unparalleled HDTV masters. Matching of color temperature between all Canon HD-EC lenses is remarkably close, clarity is assured with a superb contrast ratio and well-controlled light distribution, and overall image sharpness is high due to tight control of MTF across the image plane. Canon’s three HD-EC Zooms feature a traditional film-style tactile feel, minimized focus breathing, and large luminous scales for precise settings. Canon’s HD-EC Primes range from 5mm to 55mm, have a standardized 95mm diameter front lens, and are the lightest in their class.
