The makers of two tools we use a lot are Graeme Nattress of Nattress Productions and Wes Plate of Automatic Duck. They are also quite active on Twitter as it turns out, and you can follow them here:
Graeme & Wes
Of course, Graeme twitters mostly about single malt Scotch and RED workflows, but Wes never rests as it seems..
1) Cinemon! That’s the name of the QuickTime MXF component that enables Final Cut Pro to speak Sony OP1A MXF! Joining the likes of MXF4MAC & Calibrated, Cinemon is only restricted by only being released in North America for the time being. This of course to satisfy a large American news organization’s needs for MXF on FCP timelines…
2) SRW-9000. Finally Sony has been able to cram a HDCAM SR recorder inside a camcorder and possible been able to power it on batteries! With a dynamic range that would make every RED owner red with envy, this camera is designed to be a successor to the old HDCAM 900 camera.

3) PDW-F800. As a low-end SRW-9000, PDW-F800 is branded with CineAlta and 24P capabilities. IMX50 and other options of the PDW-700 camera is built in the F800. In order to get those pictures out, Sony has introduced a deck to accompany the camera, the PDW-F1600.
