Canford Launch New All Colour Catalogue
The latest edition of the catalogue is the first to feature full colour images of all the product groups and is the culmination of several years work to reach this point. There were 800 new additions to the online catalogue in September last year and the new publication has added over 200 further groups of products. The combined new product listings have taken the size of the book to a ‘desk worrying’ 1152 pages.
It seems that Canford have added once again to almost every section of what has become something of an industry reference over the years. A complete range of microphones from Rode has now been added and the new Flashmic from HHB. The Flashmic is an ingenious little device with 1GB of built in memory and the ability to record instantly at the push of a button in MPEG2 or WAV, all in a device no bigger than standard mic. Perfect for reporters on location.
Amongst the new additions, interconnect essentials have again featured heavily. There has been a large increase in the HDTV, audio and video panels and connectors which Canford design and make themselves at their Portland plant, reflecting the heavy investment they have made in the latest manufacturing equipment. It is a little known fact that Canford were one of the first UK companies in any sector, to invest in lead-free soldering equipment.
Several new cable types also make their debuts the new catalogue. SDV-F-HDTV is a deployable heavy duty, serial digital and analogue cable for HD or SDI applications that combines its hard-wearing properties with an extremely impressive flexibility. Also new in cables are two other HD cable types. SDV-HD an ultra low-loss 75 ohm serial digital cable and SDV-HD-LFH, a low fire hazard version of the above intended again for HD and serial digital applications.
There are new headphone amplifiers and USB audio interfaces from Sound Devices, rack-Up mixer modules from RDL, new additions to the Sonifex Redbox range. Adding to the power amplifier range are new items from Flying Mole (excellent name) and RDL.
Canford is the UK’s only stockist of the complete Neutrik range and has moved rapidly to add the new XX series XLR connectors and the new PX series jack connectors which are already being seen as an innovative new design.
Canford have also spent considerable time improved their product indexing having used the search terms visitors to their website have employed in seeking out items to further refine how the catalogue itself has been structured.
