  1. Thanks for your thoughts guys, I have the hu1 and the omnishot did technically work but only when the batteries were fully charged. Once they dropped off the unit wouldn't power up again and just blinked red. This is a known issue apparently. If you can leave the unit switched on all day then it's ok but that's not always ideal.
  2. Any chance for a hu1/2 version? Thanks.
  3. Ah sorry should have been more specific. I'm looking for the PAM brackets :) Thanks.

  11. I got in touch with Nick for a demo and tested the kit on location and in the studio on a BBC Wales shoot I was working on last week. After the units found each other the signals appeared solid. If the camera went out of range or got blocked it reappeared without fuss when back in range, taking far less time than the initial handshake. Initially I wasn't bothered about the built in LCD screen and thought it was unnecessary. However in use it was great for quickly testing the link and for showing the shot to the DP and director whilst the video village was still being setup. As a 'bonus' feature I think having the screen is well worth it and an extra monitor is always handy. I was advised by Teletest to maintain line of sight at all times but found the link stable even when objects moved between the two units. The LCD Receiver was left switched on for most of the afternoon and didn't need a battery change. I found the units didn't get hot and therefore were quiet as they didn’t need any fans. I would recommend contacting them to try one out for yourselves.
