(A Must See!)

The Television industry's first 720 Progressive HD mobile camera unit was used to capture this show.
They visited New York City to perform a special holiday concert at the famed Beacon Theater with Aaron Neville, John Medeski, Duke Robillard, Chrissie Hynde, Mavis Staples, Michael Franti (Spearhead), Robert Randolph (Sacred Steel player), and Charlie Musselwhite (Blues harmonica icon).

At the time these HD Cameras were the first 6 High Definition 720 Progressive Scan cameras being used in the world. The mobile unit was originally built by Panasonic for ABC Television's live broadcast season of Monday Night Football and the Superbowl of 2000. Then afterwords sold and repurposed for entertainment acquisition. The cameras were originally Panasonic's hand built 720 progressive scan prototype's during ABC football then changed (1 year later) to Ikegami's newest production line, 720 progressive scan, HDK-790 studio head's and HDK-79 hand held models. (1080P was still in future development) The lenses are all Fujifilm/Fujinon's HD zoom lenses. The production unit in 1999 was valued at over $8,000,000 and constructed in record time.
