Blackmagic Designs wouldn't be BD if they weren't pushing the edge of new possibilities. They introduced the UltraStudio 3D, a Thunderbolt device that gives a laptop access to what a Decklink Extreme card does to a Mac Pro. On their preview system, a laptop had a Promise Thunderbolt prototype 4-drive RAID and UltraStudio connected, and played back a 1080p uncompressed stream to a professional broadcast monitor. All in a very simple setup.
BD also introduced a tougher version of their Mini Converters. Not that the original designs had very many problems, these are just more accomodating for all the velcro and bashing that converters get while on-set. Very handy.
