Posted by Russell Lasson on April 20, 2009 at 3:21 pmSo everyone should go read up on the new AJA products.
The Ki Pro is pretty mind blowing!

April 20, 2009 at 6:14 pmLooks great. But what about handheld shooting? And how can we use it effectively on large shoulder-mounted 2/3″ HD camcorders? It’s okay if you are just doing tripod-mounted shooting on a dinky camera. Very innovative product but limiting in a way.

There are all kinds of wireless video transmitters out there. IDX has an HD/SDI transmitter/reciever combo selling for just about 5k. The tx accepts Vmount batteries as well. Problem solved. A Kipro wirelessly receiving HD/SDI video is cause for a major hard on.
4k for the Ki Pro and another 5K for a wireless Tx(if you need it) i dont care what anyone says, cheap dailies are here this is a no brainer.

April 24, 2009 at 3:01 amHandheld shooting is entirely possible. It’ll be a rig with the exoskeleton, but it will work. KiPro with exosskeleton is about 6 pounds. KiPro itself is. 3 pounds.

April 24, 2009 at 3:28 amI would like to see what AJA thinks of these ideas for making The Ki Pro work better with handheld big cameras.
Some suggestions…
1. AJA to approach Portbrace and/or KATA to make a specific shoulder bag for the Ki Pro/Exoskeleton. This could give extra room foir drivers, batts, etc as well.
2. Provide a single dual-core cable (3 metre?) that could provide start/stop control and SDI connection. I’m not meaning a new multi-core connection, but a seperate SDI/BNC and lens tap connector.
3. Incorporate a warning sound if RF / video signal is broken to the Ki-Pro.

Lens Tap and LANC are already there and will be enabled in the future.
As for an additional Hd/SDI- thats what a DA is for since this meant for older camera systems also, as someone that works this way onset already, it would add to the cable mess.

I am sure it’s coming, once it’s released Portabrace et al will be all over it as they’d be silly not to be.

You don’t necessairly need a control cable if you are shooting regen tc. If shooting regen tc, the KiPro will arm once it sees tc running. You can have a wireless handheld device (such as an iPhone) to trigger the KiPro. Might not be you as you are shooting, but it could be anyone. the KiPro has a built in wifi transceiver. If shooting Freerun, you will need a separate control style cable, such as lanc or lens tap (or you can still use the wifi for wireless control).

April 25, 2009 at 9:09 pmThere are already (acording to folks) 3rd party folks wanting in on products. If you want a bag you can use a bag meant for the Sure FP-33 it will fit no worries and give you the extra room you seek
