Odyssey7Q To Record FS700 4K RAW

Directly from the SDI output of the FS700 to (one of the four) SDI input of the OD7Q.

No interface needed.

That's the beauty and strength of this setup my friend !
 
I know at this point it's almost rude to ask (we got 4K RAW up to 60fps !) but did Sony also gave the permission to record the 4 seconds of 120fps in 4K RAW too ?
 
I asked how if it is "uncompressed" it can be larger than theoretical values of 4k uncompressed video?

anyway my math was off :embarasse

The data rate for the FS700 4k RAW uncompressed works out to around 16.5GB / minute, or 275MB / second.

So do you still need that stupid raw module add-on from Sony? Or are you talking straight from a stock FS700 to an Odyssey 7Q?

You do need the upgrade to the original FS700, or buy the current FS700R which has the upgrade included. This allows it to output RAW in 4K aor 2K. But you do not need any other equipment; simply output RAW via the camera's SDI directly into the Odyssey7Q.

Excuse my ignorance, but are those files possible to import straight into FCPX?

Currently there is no plug-in for FCPX to support Cinema DNG files. Resolve is a free program, and with the February Firmware Update our DNG files will be compatible with all Adobe software.

This is not something we will support with the upcoming firmware update. Honestly I don't know if we have the memory buffer overhead to accept this. Maybe, just don't know.

Hey Mitch, how can we transcode the 4K Raw into something NLE friendly like Pro-Res? Resolve Lite is free, but I believe it only does 2K. Even if After Effects can transcode 4K, since it's not GPU based like Resolve, transcodes would take forever. ClipHouse is an awesome transcoder, but not sure it works with 7Q DNGs. Hopefully a full version of Resolve is not the only solution since that's another $1K.

Resolve 10 Lite seems to be limited to UHD:

Mitch can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the 7Q itself will be giving us something more NLE friendly in the
4k 'popular codec' option right? Am I missing something here? If you want something more NLE friendly, why
not just record that with the 7Q (once it becomes available of course)? I guess, it's possible you are talking
about the timing as it appears 4K raw will come before the 4k 'popular codec'. Hopefully the 4k 'popular codec'
will be close behind. And until then I think you could use Resolve Light to transcode 4K raw to UHD 'popular codec'
(not quite 4K but pretty close).

But doesn't the 4sec 120fps work just like the super slow motion does internally? The FS700 saves the 4sec in it's buffer then outputs it as 24fps... (Or 25, 50, 60). In which case the 7Q should be able to handle it with no problem.
At least that's how I understood it to work with Sony's solution. I could be wrong though.

Not that i've tried it but this is how i understand it works too. So if the O7Q can take 60p then there's a good chance that it will be able to record that buffer because it will just look like 60p to it. But that's the cherry ontop of this cherry.

whoa!
or should I say "GIDDIYUP"

Sony Corp. just redeemed itself a smidgeon.....
....actually, a pretty smart business move by Sony. The more 4k content there is available, the faster 4k displays will increase in consumer demand.

OK, thinking, now.....according to mitch, 62 minutes in a Terabyte is about 275 MBps. A modern SSD in conventional configuration is good for about 200MBps. So, for real time playback of 4k data, we're looking at a system thruput of about 275MBps. hmmmm.....that's a RAID solution, fersure.

Modern SSDs can hit around 450MBps to 510MBps, and in RAID 0 (striping) can go upwards of 900MBps to 1GBps, sequentially of course.
