NAB 2013 – Timecode Buddy

The premise behind the system is to provide filmmakers with the ability to jam timecode across single or multiple cameras through wireless transmission or wifi. Yep, wifi.They introduced two parts to their sleek system. The WiFi Master and the tx. The WiFi Master serves as the product’s backbone.
