    I broke into CD one night last week and there it was. Just kidding, they sent it to me for some pictures with my camera. This is only a mockup unit.

    Good Luck

  • At NAB I spoke with Lou Schmidt from Hoodman and he gave me this companies name as a good data recovery resource.
    https://WWW.LC-TECH.COM
    After calling and talking with tech support they said the issue with video is larger file become fragmented and that is where the chain is lost to complete the file. I have read and experienced recovering only a few seconds of video then it stops. This company has a free demo but it wouldn’t recover the files I tested and I called them back and they said I either need to purchase it to find out if it works or send in the data and they can work with it. They did say they would like to experiment with the raw EX mp4 files and I’m going to send them an SDHC card this week so they can work directly with these files.

    Good Luck

    I wouldn’t check a camera of this size, it wouldn’t be worth the loss. I have crammed my EX1 into my backpack before when I had already carried on my EX3 bag.

    Here is a case that Sony sells for the EX3 that looks good.

    Good Luck

    Rafael,
    For EX cameras you can use the COCO-EX by Bebob. It is on the camera.

    This is just one easy way to continue to use the original Sony batteries.

    CD is working on other options as we speak.

    It is a pretty car isn’t it? LOL

    ut to be honest by the time I’ve got the $ for it, someone will probably have come up with something cheaper to do the same job.
    Fat fffffing chance Dude. You better start selling off or getting real about what you need.

    Good Luck

    The lens is the Fujinon XA17x7.6BERM together with the FujinonACM-21 adapter. Very nice images.

    The Nano Flash fits on the back hot shoe perfectly.

    The Matte Box and Follow Focus are from red rock. Far from the best and not a follow focus system I would recommend.

    Rafael,

    The Under/Over crank feature on the Nano will create the timebase you choose and the file will not need any transcode or conforming, just shoot and edit.

    We should compare notes when it ships.

    Just a quick note, Mike Schell has worked out the algorithm for the over/under crank. He emailed this message to me today.
    “It’s really
    quite simple. I am hoping we can finish by the end of this month.”

    I spoke with Mike earlier this week and I believe the XDR and Nano will need 720p 60 fps signals and then you will set the timebase feature on the recorder.

    Good Luck

    IMO these predictions on life expectancy for solid state memory cards haven’t really hit home to the tapeless video world. We are really just ginny pigs who haven’t seen failures to these expensive SxS or P2 cards, and who really knows when the end of the cards life will be. We all would hope they last forever.

    I’m completely comfortable using my SDHC 16 gig Transcend cards as needed and for some of us that don’t use our SxS card every single business day well who knows maybe they will last forever.

    But what is forever? Is there a shelf life? Will weather and climate play a factor? Will the connections fail before the memory? Is there any maintenance to enhance the memory life or contact cleaning and protection products we should be using to preserve the contact life?

    Time will ultimately answer these questions.
