WCBS upgrading their HD capabilities

It's about time. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with anything, but WCBS has new side bars, and reports no longer have them, only footage from other sources.

 

Edit:

 

They just had 16:9 footage.

Looks like all the CBS O&Os are going to XDCAM, which has a perfect workflow for ENG.

 

DVCPRO was really intended for cuts-only linear editing which didn't really allow for much flexibility in the field, but it got the story out faster. Since XDCAM is file-based, you can just connect the camera to a field laptop via FireWire and edit on an NLE right in the field - pretty cool stuff.

Doesn't seem like a true difference from before, the quality looks better though. Would be cool if everything was in HD, field cameras, live shots, etc. But again it is a step up and we always like that! :)
