    Hi!

    Why is this happening, I don’t get it!
    I am shooting with the FS700 in 240fps, recording on the 7Q. Everything seems to be set properly. When I play back the DNG sequence on the Odyssey, everything looks as when I shot it. But when I open the files on a computer, in photoshop or after effects, they are way darker! Some you can barely see anything!

    Do you know if this is normal? If yes, what would be the workflow to get back to the normal thing I was seeing in the monitor when I shot this in the first place ?

    Thanks!

    Check your setting again on both camera and Odyssey.
    I found it easy to mess mine up.
    One thing it allowed was to DownRes my A7s from 4k at 30fps to 1080P60 which played back crazy because it should have been interpolated.
    So, I changed it to 1080P30 for really great results.

    Another thing. Sometimes you need to set the Camera for Automatic output.
