Re: heytime in 4K/100Mbps with Sony NP-FV100

They are purely Sonys - Sony is on the label and were bought from B&H PhotoVideo - they were the expensive variety not the $50 knockoffs. Same thing happened today - 20 minutes of video and battery...

Recording time in 4K/100Mbps with Sony NP-FV100

Yesterday, I was recording 4K with XAVC at 100Mbps and using NP-FV100 Sony batteries. I was really getting rapid drops in percentage of battery left and perhaps only 20-30 minutes recording time per...

Re: X70 Firmware- ETA??

Installed V. 3.0 from Canadian site- didn't brick the camera! So nice to see XAVC 2160/30p 100 (instead of 60) - just in time for my Europe trip!

Re: X70 Firmware- ETA??

It was rather frustrating (to me) to learn earlier this year that the software won't be released until after July 1 since I will be vacationing in Europe starting June 18. I use the X70 as backup for...

Re: Which editor should I move to?

I do my coloring/grading and trimming of clips in DR 12 (SLog from FS7) and then use Edius for the rest of the process with transitions and titling.

I use the X70 as a backup cam - especially in...

The Hoocap works perfectly - this is what should have come with the camera.

Re: Hoocap instead of lens hood.

Amazon has 67mm Hoocaps for sale and they even have a video of a guy putting it on his AX100. I ordered it and a 62-67 stepup and 67mm UV filter. Sure will be glad to get rid of that lens cap that...

Re: New Sony FS7 4K XDCAM at IBC 2014

This topic has been "dead" since December 24.

Has anyone else gotten their FS7K's in yet? I received mine yesterday (should have been Dec 31 but there was a mixup on shipping speed).

So far...

Re: New Sony FS7 4K XDCAM at IBC 2014
