That camera is all you really need to shoot broadcast quality HD these days.
And yes the NSW/ACT and VIC versions should be in HD.

Unfortunately, I wouldnât be surprised if Nine News Brisbane gets their new set (if theyâre the last market to ditch the 2009-style set, I honestly wouldnât be surprised) yet is still being produced in SD!

If they are in HD, theyâve just got a viewer!

I think (apart from the studio) the main thing that Brisbane needs is an HD control suite or most probably two - otherwise we would already have the Gold Coast news in HD.

Ah yes Iâd forgotten that Brisbane was still SD (hopefully HD soon).
I wonder when the Albury/shepparton news will start hopefully by april

Canberra is confirmed as the first market to get the new news bulletin, in the second week of Feb - then Wollongong shortly after.
Do we expect that the bulletin will go to air in Canberra that week live, with lots of Canberra mentions and live shots throughout the whole bulletin to really bed it in with a local audience.
Then 2 weeks later when things are going a strong and smooth the Canberra mentions are contained to the local windows for news weather and sports and air live, -and the Wollongong pre records are turned on.
Probably every few weeks after that a new local market window will be added. I suspect a kind of slow roll out to have it all happening smoothly

Well it depends on whether Nine want to try to from day 1 do the bulletin as they will later on with the Canberra local news contained to segments (even if read live, and Canberra/one of them could always be live with the rest pre-recorded), or as youâve suggested emphasise Canberra in the first few nights.
I think the Illawarra edition was promised to begin for the following week, so itâll only be the first week which is Canberra-only.
Are the presenters of the new services great presenters on TV? I know Jo Hall will be well known as will Samantha Heathwood, but Iâm not so sure about Vanessa OâHanlon. Has she presented news before?
Never. I donât think she was even in journalism before she was announced as the presenter.

Why do newsreaders have to be journalists? Lots of newsreaders have come from other fields and Vanessa OâHanlon has worked in radio and of course for ABC News 24 so she has lots of presentation experience if not specifically as a journalist, but then again for all i know she might have.

I think it gives the newsreader a higher degree of credibility if they are an experienced journalist ie. that they have a lot of experience in covering news which demonstrates that they know what they are presenting.
