If you're interestred in the C80, my review is now up: https://moonblink.info/MudLake/gear#C80

The C70 manual says that you can plug a "commercially available controller" into the remote A jack, as an alternative to the RC-V100. (Manual page 11, 110, 194.) Given that the RC-V100 costs £2,780, I'm quite interested in using the "commercially av...

My mini-review of the R5C is now up, for anyone interested:https://moonblink.info/MudLake/gear#R5C

I guess people post mostly when they have problems, so I thought I'd share a positive experience I've had, just for contrast. I do know that not everyone has it all go smoothly, but I did, so here's my story.Also I seem to see a lot of posts from pe...

This question comes up a lot, so I wrote an article explaining all the issues and combinations. Here it is:https://moonblink.info/MudLake/gear/lensesIt turned out a lot bigger than I wanted, but this turns out to be kind of a messy issue. Anyhow, the...

Hi Chris, I think the simple answer is: set your frame rate to 59.94. I have a C80, but I don't have anything to test HDMI RAW with. However, looking at the manual, page 153, it lists the things you need to get HDMI RAW. A few that stand out are: S...

I think you'll find this is the issue - "control ring" refers to the one on the lens. The ones on the camera are the "rear control dial", "select dial", and "front control dial". See manual pages 13-14.

Sorry, I'm not understanding this: "I should mention that the outer ring on the lens will adjust Iris.". When you said "control ring", this normally refers to the ring on the lens which is farthest from the camera -- what I might call the "outer-mos...

I have the control ring on my C80 permanently set to iris, and it works fine for me. The only reason I could think of that it wouldn't work (other than just changing the control ring setting) would be if you put the camera into auto-iris mode, which...
