Re: Pxw-fs7 problem with red

I don't think that is a problem with the camera as much as its a problem with the light source. I bet the lamps they have in the building are not putting out much red.

Re: DJI phantom 2 when the battery runs out

The issue is when it trips into autoland it descends to land where ever it is. Your selected home location doesn't matter. It stops and lands as soon as the critical battery warning is reached. You...

Re: problems with infrared detection of beavers

The thing to do is to setup a camera with video motion detection. They will require a lot more power due to the imager running all the time but they will get the job done.

Re: Renaming AVCHD files from FS700

That is a challenge.
