Technology is definitely evolving at a very fast speed. Even before the latest technology reaches the common user, there is a new technology entering in the market. We recently came across the VC-25MC-M/C 30, a 35mm high speed CMOS camera produced by Viewworks. The camera is capable of acquiring videos at 5120x5120 pixels at 30.8fps, which would be great for state-of-the-art fulldome productions. The producer advertises an "outstanding noise reduction technology" as well as precise exposure control. Although developed for industrial inspection and scientific research applications, hopefully in the future this technology could somehow find its way to the fulldome market. Visit the producer's website to learn more.
