Ki Pro LANC
Now that the LANC function is enabled would it be possible to use it for remote start/stop of recording? I’m thinking a pan bar mounted zoom demand like those from Beebob that connect to LANC and have a record button.

Woah! Just seen someone mention that the Ki Pro takes 40 seonds to boot up!!!
That’s the end of it as far as I’m concerned.

Yeah, thats about the same amount of time as an HDSR tape deck.
and that is faster than a Red One does.

True, but about 10x as long as the Nanoflash!
If you’re working with quick/unpredictable subjects you can either leave it powered up (using lots of power) or potentially miss a lot of action.

I guess that is the price for getting 10bit I-frame recording instead of 8bit MXF.

Suppose so. I wonder how long the Ki Pro mini would run for with a standard say IDX E10 95wh battery, and whether overheating would be a problem?
I must say I definitely do prefer the Ki Pro as a unit, but this start up time would be an issue, as would the still slightly unclear situation with the Varicam. Still not sure if I could get 25P with audio from it. Even if it would not play natively, if the flags are recorded would it then go into an NLE OK? With FCP I understand that the software frame rate converter only works with DVCPro material?
