For me the choice starts at the front end of the camera, and when adding a 35mm lens adapter the choice is even easier to choose the larger 1/2 sensors that come with the Sony EX camera. Now if you add the Convergent Design Nano Flash HD-SDI recorder you will really take full advantage of what the front end can deliver.

I haven’t used the Letus and wondered if you used there new relay lens directly on the EX3?

All great points Craig, You and I know how to properly use this SDHC/MxR solution and know that our cards work because we tested them as you outlined above.

I think anyone who is a true professional with one of the EX cameras should have invested in enough SxS cards to keep up with there responsibility for hire. Honestly if someone buys this camera and only gets 2-8 gig cards that come with the camera and a few SDHC cards with 1-MxR adapter they are not properly equipped for hire.

I’m starting to believe this solution isn’t for everyone. There is no excuse for failure with tapeless solutions. I would imagine this producer will never hire a Sony XD Cam EX owner/operator again. And having uneducated individuals making mistakes will only steer producers back to the P2 crews.

Quiet enough I’d say. 10 gauge is worth 30 amps so those cables will help fight the line loss.
Here is the specs to this unit.

I had a situation a few days ago where I put in another Transcend 16 gig card and my camera said it needed to format the card. I’m wondering if you may have thought it was a restore media request when it was a format request.

I think you better leave this card to a professional and don’t try to do anything with it or you will not get any of the data back.

Here is a name and a company that might be able to recover the data that I got from Lou Schmidt of Hoodman. I would Fed Ex it to them.

Do you have an SDHC card reader other than the MxR?

I would put it back into the camera and restore media and see if that fixes the issue. However if you popped the card out before it finished writing the data you could have damaged the card and the data.

I picked up one of these and it is pretty quiet, I still need to put a load on it. I have an old open face 2k that I will try. It is a little bigger than a Honda and a little heavier. I called the only Home Depot in the south bay this morning and they had 10, by the time I got there they had 5 left. Thanks for the tip.

the 128 is much bigger than the competition and should supply you with plenty of lumens, I purchased the Micro Lite and wished I hadn’t.
