How awesome an undertaking! If you guys get half way to where your planning it'll be 5x further then we are now!! So with everything and the kitchen sink as your goal, how could anyone ask for more? Well here I go in additon and you may well have thins in mind already but
In the data stream it would be cool to have complete metadat about the camera and if possible lens setting. The entire scene file, iris focal length etc.
Dual channel fiber for uncompressed video rocks, but that tethers me to a computer or some sort of raid array to capture all that info. I think fiber channel is upto 10Gbps now so that could be 20 Gbps in a dual fiber channel, since SCSI is only 640Mbps its going to take a raid set up to capture all that, which is fine until you need to go to steadicam, then you'll have to go to a compressed signal. It would be cool if you could find some sort of media that could keep up with an uncompressed data stream to record to on camera, even if it is only a few minutes worth of video at a time, I'd rather work with a time constraint then a compression constraint.
You guys rock, Hope every hurrdle is low!
