Steadicam Zephyr HD + Scarlet = No Monitor Signal?
Alan Rencher replied to Daniel Wang's topic in Steadi-Newbies
Hi Steven, First off, you have to use your full, real name on this forum. Second, can you tell us what model monitor you have, and what input you are using (what's it labeled?) Have you tried going directly into the monitor from the camera? do you have your Atomos set to change the signal format in any way, or is it just changing it to SDI. Have you tried using different cables just in case one is bad? Can you post a picture of your setup? -
How fast can you go to low mode?
Alan Rencher replied to Janice Arthur's topic in General Discussion
I can go to low mode in about a minute as well. In this modern world we live in, I see no need to flip the camera. I have a zephyr, but I don't unscrew the monitor. I just tilt it so the screen is facing me, then extend the monitor post to assist for the CG change. I do think Frederic's yoke would be a great addition, though. -
Using P-Tap to connect batteries in parallel
Alan Rencher replied to Michael Desiderio's topic in Batteries/Power
You might have problems if the batteries aren't close in voltage. They might try to charge each other. -
Request for video sensor and transmitter to standard tablet
Alan Rencher replied to Yigal's topic in General Discussion
I don't know if "medical application" and "without the need for certification" can be on the up and up, especially when you're asking how to design it on a stabilizer forum. -
That pictures shows it's about 1/16" thick, which is about 16 AWG. That should be plenty.

Almost ready! It's been slow-going, but I should have them soon. I'll keep you posted!

I use a tripod bag for my arm.

Alan Rencher replied to chris bangma's topic in Brackets/Widgets
That's pretty good. About the same as the Vitec zero delay codec. -

That sounds like a good product. What is the latency in milliseconds? -

Is it based off of the Vitec Sprint? http://www.vitec.com/products/encoders/portable-encoders/product/show/MGW-Sprint/ -

I would be interested in seeing some photos and specs for the encoder. -
If I add a Lemo option, what Lemo connectors would be best? There could be the problem of an AC using a Lemo to USB meant for the Dynamo for another device. Let's say the plug a USB power device directly into an Alexa 12v out without the dynamo. Should I use a Lemo connector that isn't common? That could mean you have to buy more expensive Lemo cables. Alan

Hey Afton, Cost is the biggest issue. I like these connectors much more than other connectors in their price range. They're high quality, light weight, and they are weather proof when mated. Having said that, I can make (and have made) a version with 2-pin Lemo connectors in the same enclosure. That brings the price up to $110 for the regulator. plus the input/output cables are more expensive, bringing the overall cost of ownership up. I may list a Lemo version on the site as an alternative if you think the cost isn't prohibitive. Thanks Alan

Red Rock wireless follow focus Review
Alan Rencher replied to David M. Aronson's topic in Follow Focus
For starters, it only has a 30 mW output, as opposed to the 60 mW output on something like the Axis1. -
Thanks for the kind words, Peter. The Dynamo will be shipping starting next week for $65. The first batch will be relatively small, but production will ramp-up subsequently. Here are a few features of the Dynamo: Input Range: 3-30V Adjustable Output: 4-12V, 2A (boosts or steps-down voltage), adjustable with a #0 Phillips screwdriver A wide variety of input and output cables via Micro-Con-X jacks (compatible with AJA Mini Converter cables) Protection Circuits: Reverse polarity protection, over-current protection, thermal shutdown (activates at 165°C), and an undervoltage lockout LCD readout with on/off switch allows you to clearly adjust the output voltage while minimizing light pollution during use Small Size: 2.4x1.4x.8"

Bo, yes Peter Hoare produced the Axis 1. His system is not a rebranding of another product.
