Everyone in ComAcad is excited to get their hands on the latest addition to our equipment lineup: a brand new Panasonic HMC150 High Definition Camera.

The 150 expands our HD shooting capabilities while complementing our two Canon A1s.  One very exciting feature of the 150 is that it records to flash memory cards instead of tape like the rest of our current cameras.  This new workflow is currently revolutionizing the industry and will allow our students to stay current with skills useful to careers in media production.

The new camera was purchased through a generous grant given to our program by the Marin County Regional Occupational Program (ROP), whom also helps to fund the general operation of the academy.  Everyone at ComAcad is greatful for their continued support.
