IBC - CINEC and Broadcast India 2014 have been great exhibitions for Aaton-Digital. First of all the Cantar-X3 has been voted “Best of the Show” for Audio products at IBC, then we received the prestigious CinecAward in Munich by the Society of CineTechnik Bayern e.V. (CTB, formerly Bavarian Society for the Advancement of Film Technology), awarding us for our innovative and trendsetting products and developments in the Motion Picture Technology. Broadcast India was a great event on a common booth shared by AFFECT’s members - the Cantar-X3 is awaited by the Indian market as a break between the past and future of high end sound catching.

The International Film Festival of the Art of Cinematography CAMERIMAGE is maybe the greatest and most recognized festival dedicated to the art of cinematography and its creators - cinematographers. The goal of CAMERIMAGE is to contribute to the growth of cinematographers’ prestige. The unconventional format of the Festival,which awards films according to their visual, aesthetic and technical values, has turned out to be an alternative to a lot of traditional film festivals.
