SHINING TECHNOLOGY DELIVERS WORLD’S FIRST 160GB
ULTRA-PORTABLE TAPELESS VIDEO RECORDER AT NAB2008

LAS VEGAS (NAB, Booth # SU6830), April 14, 2008 – Shining Technology, Inc. (www.shining.com), a global provider of tapeless recording and conversion hardware for the video and broadcast markets, today announced a 160GB version of its award-winning, patent-protected CitiDISK^TM family of tapeless recording storage peripherals.

Big Things, Small Package
Weighing a featherlight 10oz., the CitiDISK 160GB model is the world’s highest-capacity ultra-portable tapeless video storage device – an industry breakthrough.

The battery-operated CitiDISK^TM easily attaches to virtually any FireWire-enabled DV or HDV video camera, and many DVCPRO^TM HD cameras. The unit’s tapeless workflow saves videographers and editors countless hours of digitizing videotapes. Instead, they can “recapture” more creative and production time.

With CitiDISK^TM, users seamlessly record their footage directly to digital video formats and access it immediately for editing (compatible with widely-used NLE (non-linear editing) software packages, including Final Cut Pro, Avid, Canopus, Adobe, Matrox and Sony Vegas).

Applications
CitiDISK^TM is a valuable production tool for nearly any studio or field DV environment, especially where instant playback and/or editing (Same-Day Editing) are required. Examples include:

• Weddings & Events
• Tradeshows & Conferences
• House of Worship (HOW)
• Education
• News & Sports
• Documentary
• Government
• Security & Surveillance

Complimentary Storage
With 160GB yielding up to 160 minutes of recording time, CitiDISK^TM is a compelling, cost-effective supplement to DVCPRO^TM HD production arsenals using P2 Cards. Currently, the highest capacity P2 Card is 32GB, yielding up to 32 minutes.

In addition, other external video storage drives are significantly heavier, have a larger footprint and offer less storage capacity while costing nearly double that of CitiDISK^TM.

Pricing & Availability
The CitiDISK^TM 160GB model will ship in Q2 2008. MSRP is $1395.00 for HDV cameras, and $1495.00 for HD cameras. A complete line of CitiDISK^TM accessories is also available, including multiple mounting options. All products are available through Shining Technology’s international distribution network, accessible at www.shining.com
