In case you have not yet seen what Canon’s new volumetric camera is capable of at the Rugby World Cup, this video of George Bridge’s try against South Africa on the opening weekend puts you right at the heart of the action.
It’s as if the live action had been created in a studio as part of a video game but this is taken from the live footage and was available to directors to show as a live replay.
We have seen similar footage emananting from the NFL but every tournament brings yet another advance in the way that broadcasters can take us ever closer to the games.
