It’s easy to be out in front with great people behind you. We could tell you about the 3 am phone calls on switcher operations. About the red-eye fl ights with replacement boards. About the fi fteen engineers we sent to support the Summer Games, just in case. And about a service inventory that is second to none. But nothing is more persuasive than all the people we put behind you, recognized by the industry for best-in-class service and support. * click: sony.com/prohdna “I’ve been a Schneider fan for 50 years – from my first 4x5 format lens to precision glass filters for HD and 35mm work, to Century Achromatic Diopters for DV. There are effects that only filters can create. For day exteriors, I rotate a Tru-Pol TM in my hands and look through it to see how it affects the color saturation of the sky, water, trees, and shiny objects like cars or glossy paint. On ‘Baadasssss!,’ the Classic Soft ® allowed me to diminish distracting artifacts on an elderly Ossie Davis’ face, without compromising the integrity or power of his character. I love the sense of surrealism the Black Frosts TM can render. On a ‘Night Stalker’ flashback, we blew out the windows and added a Black Frost. It created a sometimes subtle, sometimes powerful image without compromising the sharpness and deep blacks. For the short film ‘Cry of Ecstasy,’ I wanted to dynamically portray an artist’s canvas. By adding the Century Achromatic Diopter to the Panasonic DVX 100, I got really dramatic edge-to-edge sharp full-contrast images without fringing. From Achromatic Diopters to filters, Schneider is an important addition to this cinematographer’s toolbox.” Robert Primes, ASC, is known for his television work on the groundbreaking series thirtysomething, Felicity (2000 ASC nomination & 1999 Emmy ® Award), MDs (2002 ASC Award for HD), My Antonia (1995 Emmy) and Harrison: Cry of the City (Emmy nomination).
