    #1
    Default
    Since there are so many hacks to use, I wanted to get opinions on what cinematographers on here that have completed a feature or short film, think is the best hack to use while taking into account about best resolution and whats best for color correction latitude. Whats the best of the latest hacks that shoot over 100 mbs and deliver the cleanest image once blown up to a larger screen.
    Thanks

    I'm using Driftwood's Orion V4b. Love it.

    I'm using Sedna Q20 "A". Driftwood's most recent hack and extremely stable on my Sandisk 95mbs card.

    I think Sandisk 95mb cards are the more popular choices for these extreme hacks. But really anything above 45mbs will handle most of these hacks.
    I have a bunch of class 10s (20mbs) and hit a wall with anything above 70mb, and these highend hacks get to around 150mb and higher.

    Orion V4b worked fine on my Sandisk 32gb 30mb/s car. At least until it hit the 4gb file limit.

    I'm using the Sandisk Extreme Pro 95Mbps 64GB card:
    http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...mory_Card.html

    It ain't cheap, but it handles everything I've thrown at it hack-wise. And apparently the 64GB version of the 95Mbps card is somehow faster than the 32GB version, so it's able to span clips better than slower cards.

    As for Orion V4b, it uses up my 64GB card in 54 minutes. Ouch.

    154mbps I believe. I get just under 30 mins on a 32gb card... haha. Not the most practical if you're shooting lots and can't dump footage.

    Quality is marvellous though.
