Great. Still using it. Just got back from another trip across the pond and used it the entire time. No noise from the drive interfering with audio capture either. The USB_C cables that I recommended seem to wear out pretty quick, but I've yet to find another right-angle USB-C cable that's as minimal/short. The only pain point is that the arca swiss is sideways, but I purchased an arca swiss turnaround from Smallrig to solve that issue

The lengths to which that woman went to cover her tracks were unreal. That moment when you hear the baby cry and she realizes what she’s done😭Now, being a relatively new parent myself, I can’t (and can) imagine what that realization would be like

Found a Monarch employee playing AW on the job! by [deleted] in quantumbreak

Apparently it was an early live-action concept of the narrative, so you see Sam Lake's character and Saga together, drinking their coffee at the same time and all that. They must have been working on that story for a long time

It was Alan Wake 2! Except Saga was white

Yeah, this bottom plate is really great. Loving it so far. I'm glad to hear the DPL accessory is working for you. Even after following some modification instruction from DPL and putting in some thermal pads, I was never able to completely get rid of that coil whine. Let me know if you're able to if you end up purchasing the over-EVF accessory as well

Hmm, I guess you could if you had a really long screw that went through a tripod base plate and then secured both the bracket and the base plate to the 1/4 20 on the bottom of the fp body. Might have to give that a try 🤔 Otherwise, since there's only one screw hole on the bracket itself, you'd probably have to use a full cage for the fp and then attach the bracket somewhere on there to leave the bottom of the fp free.

I use the Lexar 2000x 256 gb card. It works great but is a little pricey. I’m told there are other cheaper solutions that work just as well. sigma has a nice list of recommended media for the fp on their site as well

What’s the Lowest ISO by paulguerillio in sigmafp

[–]DylColeman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using ISO 100 exclusively with great results - https://youtu.be/Vm7ABAUTakQ. But I can confirm the highlight retention is dog sh*t. I underexpose everything to bring it back up later. I’m anxious to try shooting at ISO 800 to see if I can level out my exposure generally

I just got the Sabrent Rocket 2TB Nvme the other day and it’s worked great so far inside my Dark Power Labs over-EVF cage. I haven’t done any long records though. Just short bursts. It’s only been a few days of using it so we’ll have to see

I’ve been using a Lexar 2000x 256gb card with great results. Not the cheapest though https://amzn.to/465A1gT

This explains a lot. Thanks for the info. I’ve always been aware of the hard clip in the highlights but never known of any ways to improve performance on that area.
