    I just installed a new LHi in a new Mac Pro and the fan was definitely loud. We have had three others running on our other systems for at least a year and they sound nothing like this one. It sounds as if the fan blade is just barely grazing something inside the housing or causing something loose to vibrate. I have sent it back to B&H and expect a new one in the next few days. Hopefully it sounds more like the beach and less like a weed whacker.

    Both cameras should have been set to Hytron 140 since that is all we use. Do you think an improper selection in that menu could cause a problem like this? I wish I had kept track of the particular battery that was mounted on both occasions.

    As a matter of fact both instances, I think, involved a battery (AB Hytron 140) coming fresh off the charger. In Miami I grabbed the camera out of my hotel room to go shoot some B-roll but when I got downstairs I realized the camera was dead. This weekend we were just coming off of a lunch break and when we went to fire up the camera…dead. Hmmmm. I don’t know if that could be the cause. I just know that I can’t afford to have that happen again.

    Thanks Rafael. I will pass this suggestion on to the editors. I’m not sure if the Kona cards (lhe & lhi) can do the upscaling. I hear the Kona 3 does a good job though.
