A bit of self promotion, sincerely hope nobody minds.....
I've been very involved in the production of a film over the past 12 months, myself and business partner both full filling the roles of DoP/main camera, and our company providing the camera equipment and crew throughout. The vast...
In case anyone finds themselves with the same issue...
We've had an annoying glitch with our camera since getting it back from the 4K upgrade, in that we were unable to manually change the shutter speed.

I will address my thoughts on this in two stages
General Use
As a monitor, the Odyssey 7Q is stunning, crystal clear, as would be expected from a 7.25” oled display. I’ve used it since, filming a Le Mans moving at speed on a track...
Declaration of Interest: just to say this up front, none of the manufacturers or suppliers of the kit mentioned have asked us to complete this report. We do, admittedly, offer the kit and ourselves for hire, so you could argue that this is an advert for us. However that’s not our intention, our...

Main area of interest on the forum for us at the mo is the Sony NEX-FS700, with Odyssey 7Q. We've had ours for a couple...
