Hi to all!!
This is now becoming a massive problem – and i hope sony will read this!!
I have used the Sony ex3 and ex1 cameras for a couple of years now. Filming wildlife documentaries in South Africa, Zimbabwe and more recently Qatar in middle east. Its never failed me – but in 2012 this small red spot has made its appearance … like a “virus”!
I have a total of 21 Ex3 cameras – a mind-blowing 14 of these cameras have been “infected”!!
2012 I bought 11 ex3 cameras … 9 have the spots and are collecting dust!! AND THEY DONT CARE – I HAVE SPOKEN TO MY SUPPLIER – HE CONTACTED SONY DIRECT – I HAVE CONTACTED SONY DIRECT BUT THEY ARE NOT HELPFUL AT ALL!!
How can it be wear and tear if 9 out of 11 cameras from 3 different orders are doing this!
5 cameras going down on 1 shoot!!
SONY – the reality camera operators we use are some of the best in the world .. SURVIVOR US, THE BACHELOR, FEAR FACTOR ect…
2 points on this ..
– cant see them not knowing how to operate a ex3
– trust me – they are spreading the word very very fast about this camera – and maybe even the brand!! ( 5 cameras on one shoot – and its my problem … yea thanks SONY )
Sony – feel free to contact me
