I'm curious to see if there's some way to tell how many cycles xqd cards have gone through? I have some older ones that I originally got with my FS7, but now with the FX9 I'm thinking about replacing those with some newer ones. Just wish they were still 128gb!

Hey everyone, Running into what looks like a stuck pixel on my viewfinder and external monitors (in the same exact spot), but it doesn't show up on my recorded media anywhere. I've tried black balancing in the camera, but it still shows up in the viewfinder and my SDI outputs. I've had my FS7...

Excuse my messing living room :) As it's set up now - the Ptap cords are too long and messy in my opinion. Once I pull the trigger on a monitor I plan on either soldering the cables into much shorter cables or looking into shorter cables that will fit right out of the box without having excess...

Exactly. This wouldn't replace a 17" monitor, more so supplement it for the jobs or shots when a 17" or larger monitor just doesn't make sense. For run and gun situations I find myself in, a 17" monitor is too cumbersome and slow. By no means am I referring to a controlled studio setting or a...

Looking to grab a new 7" monitor for clients and directors. I've had the SmallHD 502 for over a year and a half for on camera and have been pretty happy with the ease of use and LUT support. That being said, I don't trust it as much as I'd like to as far as color goes. It always seems somewhat...

Which one is everyone leaning towards and why? It sounds like they will be around the same price (with the Angenieux calling for another $3000 if you want the FF capabilities). I'm definitely more interested in picking up the Angenieux (no ramping, FF capabilities, faster) but on the other hand...

I have the Zacuto Axis Mini FS7 paired with the Zacuto Universal Baseplate and it definitely makes balancing the camera/getting the viewfinder in the right spot much easier. I definitely recommend the Indie Recoil by Zacuto for the FS7. Included is the baseplate, axis mini, 15mm rods, and a...

To get the most out of your Ronin and to save headaches, I'd definitely invest in the extension arms. Pan extension - not so much a necessity unless you really load it up (i.e. wireless follow focus, heavy cine glass, etc.)
