In this FS100 video, I talk about the Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Shuttle and how the FS100 works with it. Official HyperDeck Shuttle site: tinyurl.com/3u6rf2v Key points of note: - A HyperDeck Shuttle Mounting Plate with many 1/4" and 3/8" holes is being released in early December 2011. More details can be found here: tinyurl.com/72z5rne - Not all SSDs are created equal...use only these recommended SSDs for video capture: OCZ 240GB Vertex 3 OCZ 480GB Vertex 3 Crucial 256GB C300 Kingston 64GB SSDNow V+ Kingston 128GB SSDNow V+ - The SSD MUST be formatted in HFS+ file format, which is not natively compatible with PCs. For a PC to recognize and format a HFS+ drive, you must purchase either Mediafour's MacDrive 9 (mediafour.com) or Paragon's HFS+ (paragon-software.com) - The SSD port on the HyperDeck Shuttle has no solid "locking" mechanism which means that it is a possibility that the SSD might be able to drop out of the drive bay while in use. This can be easily fixed with a piece of tape around the opening of the SSD port on the HyperDeck Shuttle. - To get a proper signal to the HyperDeck Shuttle from the FS100, you must set your HDMI "VIDEO OUT" to 1080i/480i. - Keep the device firmware up-to-date! Latest firmware is 1.1.2 (uploaded Nov. 23, 2011) - tinyurl.com/74udf9z (windows FW support link) - File sizes from the FS100 are as follows: 1080p/30p FX @ 1min: 9.5GB 1080p/24p FX @ 1min: 9.4GB

In this FS100 Q&A video, I talk briefly about the Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Shuttle 2. Official HyperDeck Shuttle site: tinyurl.com/3u6rf2v Key points of note: - The original HyperDeck Shuttle is not able to be upgraded to record the Avid DNxHD codec due to a hardware upgrade only found in the Shuttle 2.

In this Q&A video, I talk about my standard rig for shooting handheld with the Sony NEX-FS100.

In this Q&A video, I talk about a few Canon/Nikon lens adapters for the Sony NEX-FS100. Key points of note: - Once you purchase and receive the adapter, inspect all screws on the mount, making sure they are tight. Inspect the screws after every gig in case they start to loosen up. - Inspect the lens locking pin *before* attaching a lens to the adapter. Any damage or weakness in the locking pin may cause your lens to be attached to the adapter permanently. - Adapters can be found on eBay anywhere from $15 on up and there are many different makes/models. - The adapters featured in this video are considered "dumb" adapters and will not allow you to control aperture or focus from the camera body. The Berger FS-100 adapter is currently scheduled to be released in early 2012 and will control aperture in most Canon lenses.

Back around the year 2000, company VM Labs developed technology which was used in several DVD players from Samsung, Toshiba and RCA - called "Nuon", this new tech brought enhanced DVD playback features as well as 3D gameplay to the home. In late 2001, VM Labs filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was forced to sell off the technology. This cinematic short showcases the hardware and software of the Nuon that at the time was a promising new technology, but never quite made it off the ground. :: Direction, creation and cinematography by Aaron Nanto :: Featured Music: "Cerebral Passage" by Danny Cocke :: Camera: Sony Super 35 NEX-FS100 :: Lens: Zeiss Makro-Planar T* 50mm f/2 ZF.2
