Diverted to an existing thread in a SONY camera forum from a Panasonic Camera forum on the DVX Site ....and where the answer was not established conclusively.
Interesting.
Why did this Hyperdeck shuttle thread get CLOSED when the answer was unresolved?

Here is the list of authorized dealers: http://www.blackmagic-design.com/products/hyperdeckshuttle/howtobuy/
Blackmagic's marketing is confusing. The product page introduces the item as the Hyperdeck Shuttle 2, yet the rest of the product page calls it the Hyperdeck Shuttle, making no distinction between the two products. So when you buy from the dealer, be cautious to be sure you are getting the right product.

What is the size and weight of the Shuttle2 ???
You had asked in the original thread:
The thread I pointed you to addressed that specific topic - the question of a new hardware and firmware, and more.
The issue is camera agnostic, and the posts were duplicative. Hence the deletion.

Not a big concern.
We just try to limit duplicative posts.
As to the subject matter, I wonder if it is licensing issues that prevent a capture transcode to specific codecs.
Love to see a direct capture to pro res.

Yes, my thought too - if Atomos can get approval/license for Prores for Ninja/Samurai then Black Magic can for the Shuttle?
Would make the Shuttle far more compelling - tho' they need to add auto trigger recording as well imho

A pro res capture at $345.00 is a steal.
Hey, even at a few dollars more for licensing would make worthwhile.

Agreed David - and I shoot 3D as well so even doubled up for stereo they are fantastic bargain

Not sure if the question got answered but I just spoke to a UK distributor and he tells me that according to Black Magic it's new hardware, so your old V1 Shuttle cannot be upgraded to take DnxHD. He also tells me tat it does NOT trigger via timecode, which is disappointing. Think I'll keep saving for the Samurai!

Go info.Thanks.
When using this you have to manually press a record button on the device? Seems like a strange way to capture. I sure wouldn't want to work that way.
Maybe this is part of the reason its so affordable.

Record
HyperDeck Shuttle will instantly record
the moment you press its Record
button, even if you’re playing back
a clip. This means you’ll never miss a
good take that’s happening.

Thats what it means. No go for me. I almost bought one. That would be a great deal if it triggered from the camera.
I wouldn't want to double roll two devices. Recording only to an external recorder wouldn't be a safe work flow for me.

The Hyperdeck Shuttle MK2 has basically killed off any resale value I might have had for my MK1 version.
The MK1 can sit on the shelf awaiting the time I might need uncompressed files ( which is what I bought it for).
No issue for me dual rolling devices in those circumstances.
Meantime..my Samurai is the "go to" external recorder in my general workflow.
(BTW - thanx to who- ever fixed the thread title for me... and also ...I think this thread did have "legs" in the AF100 Forum)

A dedicated Shuttle thread is called for.
My interest is not in the AF100 and there must be others who are more interested in the Shuttle.
I pre purchased the PIX 240 in August last year and it did not arrive until December so in the meantime I purchased the Hyperdeck Shuttle.
The PIX 240 is an excellent recorder but cost me over $3000 with caddy and the LCD is quite poor and has limited functions.
The PIX also weighs over a kilo.
I was very pleasantly surprised by the Shuttle.
It gives excellent recordings and is simple to use.
I can live without timecode and audio inputs, using just the embeded SDI audio.
With the release of the Shuttle 2, I can have the same compressed quality of the PIX, recorded to SSD in a lighter form factor.
I am purchasing a TVlogic VFM 056WP to work with the Shuttle 2 on my GY-HM750.
This setup will be little more than 1/2 the price of the PIX and offer both compressed and uncompressed.
Resale on the Shuttle 1 is not so much to write off, and I can keep it for uncompressed and save fiddling with firmware to switch from compressed, just have 2 Shuttles.
PIX 240 for sale.
