I asked this on the Facebook group, so apologies for repeating this if you've seen it already, but there's meant to be a skip frames option in playback of 50/60p recordings on the Odyssey, so they appear to playback in realtime rather than 50% slower. But I cannot for the life of me find this...

Hi, With my Odyssey 7Q+ (attached to my FS700) I've been using the supplied LUTs from Convergent Design, namely either the "SONY_EE_SL2_L709A-1" or "SONY_EE_SL2_L709A-2" (depending on exposure levels). I apply the LUT in Premiere in the new Lumetri panel. I then will manually adjust for each...

Hi All, I thought I'd share with you my latest rig. I've got it into a place where I'm very happy, to the point where I no longer look at the FS7 with envy! I made the decision to bolster my FS700 with the O7Q+ rather than sell my FS700 and replace with the FS7 (an option I nearly went for)...

Hi, I've just purchased the 7q+ and I have used it for the first time on my FS700 on a paid gig this week. Love it in the main, for its screen and prores recording capabilities in particular. But a few things are bugging me. Firstly it takes what feels like an eternity to boot up, especially...

As the title says, is it possible to simultaneously record HD 50P recordings internally in AVCHD at the same time as record 4K (or UHD) ProRes at 25P on the 7Q+? I don't yet own the 7Q+ (I'm close to getting one soon), but I notice in the FS700's menu you can output raw at 4K 50P as well as...

The recently announced Tamron 15-30 2.8 VC looks like a great super-wide lens for handheld or gimbal use. If this will work with the speedbooster we're talking a F2.0 15mm (full frame size!) lens with image stabilisation! Here's about the only useful video review I could find, although no...

Hi, Like many people here I am torn as to where to go with upgrading, or adding kit, so as to add 4K ability to my arsenal of gear. Here are my thoughts and ramblings... All my work is fairly low-cost corporate work, and 90% is performed by me alone. This is often simple...

I just wondered if anyone has got/used the Canon EF 16-35mm f/4 L IS lens on the FS700 with the Speedbooster? I figured it would have an aperture of 2.8 when used with the Speedbooster, and it comes with built-in Image Stabilisation. Should be good for handheld walking shots for example, or...

Hi, In my situation, where I haven't yet purchased a 7Q recorder (I have been holding out for a compressed 4K format), with the recent hack to enable XAVC 4K on the F5, I'm just considering (not too seriously, but just throwing the question out there) whether it would be worth selling my FS700...

As the title asks does anyone know if the Samyang/Rokinon 14mm EF-mount T3.1 lens works successfully with the Canon speedbooster adapter for the FS700? http://www.rokinon.com/product.php?id=218 http://www.samyang.co.uk/index.php/vdslr-lenses-cine/samyang-14mm-t3-1-ed-as-if-umc I currently use...

Hi all, I am in the corporate video market, and I've been using the FS700 since July last year - made about 30 corporate videos since then using the FS700 and happy with the results. I normally avoid weddings like the plague, not my area of expertise and not one I wish to venture into...

Hopefully it'll pair nicely with the FS700 https://vimeo.com/79844144

The Convergent Design 7Q's official specs don't mention or include ProRes as options for either HD, 2K or 4K output - as far as I can see. Which is a shame as I would find that more useful for my current workflow than both RAW or CinemaDNG. However (and this may have been mentioned before -...

Hi, First of all sorry this is a long post - you can skip to the pictures at the bottom if you'd rather not read all this! I thought I'd share my FS700 rig and system with you - it may be helpful to some FS700 users. I needed the FS700 to be a jack of all trades, where it can be used for...
