Odyssey7 & Odyssey7Q Status Update

[Milan O.]

The main feature of the 7Q+ is the ability to record 1080p50/60 or 4k via HDMI. If you have a camera with SDI output (like the FS700) , the 7Q will do you perfectly fine.

It is also silent, if that is important to you.

It is also silent, if that is important to you.

If you are comparing to Atomos.

7Q and 7Q+ are both silent.

I hope Convergent Design can add Black Magic Raw recording into their Odyssey 7Q. That would be so helpful in keeping the file size down! Hopefully it works out for them! I would be really happy if it did!

Yes, it would be great.

I have already emailed them with the request, I suggest everyone else do the same. Would give new life to the 7Q

Any mention of interval shooting / timelapse feature in works? From a docu-shooter standpoint having to reset the whole system every time I have to shoot a timelapse, and have it in a different (worse) codec is really detrimental to overall workflow.

I fired up the F3 today with the Odyssey 7Q+ and am seeing some very odd focus peaking behavior.
I snapped a picture below. It looks like the peaking is being cut off and only working on part of the frame.
What's even weirder that the peaking looks to be out of sync with the image and somehow is vertically wrapping around the image.

I tried several SDI cables and ran it with one and both (1.5G / 3G) and get the same results.

The built in focus peeking on the small F3 screen or in the viewfinder doesn't not exhibit this problem.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks in advance
