    I sent mine back when it first dropped. I wanted to love it. It's well made. My image kept dropping on my C70? It was odd. Back to Atomos. It works.

      I had the same issue on my c70 dropping out constantly. It must be the compatibility with that particular camera. Because it doesn’t drop out on my other cameras which is weird

    An HDMI connection is known to introduce latency. Your latency examples with the M1 I think were all with an HDMI connection. Have you tested it with a direct SDI connection to your Komodo? Would be interesting to get an apples to apples comparison against the SmallHD, which showed no latency when connected via SDI to the Komodo.

    • @thomas.kovacik

      Hmm, the m1 monitor doesn’t have SDI but the TX does
      I ran the Komodo x with the TX through SDI - you can see those latency examples in this video too
      I ran the small hd 702 touch with the hollyland but as an on camera monitor- still kicking out to the m1 monitor for the director / client
      Every setup I tried had some slow latency, it’s alright but I wouldn’t focus pull from it

      @@thomas.kovacik Ah, I was looking at the M1 Enhanced, which has an SDI input. Didn't realize the original M1 didn't have SDI. Thanks!

      @ImageGeneration oh shoot good to know that! Yeah I guess you could go SDI to the m1 enhanced on camera and use it as a monitor / TX!

    I've been using my Accssoon CineView HE with my Komodo X in the same way (for client/director).
    It doesn't have SDI but I've been using the HDMI out port of my SmallHD Indie 7.

    Has anyone notice what I would describe as a slight electronic burning smell come from the TX?

      Oh no haha, that’s… prob not good
      Hopefully just dust burning off a bit from the internals heating up?

    Thoughts on the Pyro S that was just released? For a new release and $50 more, it seems like the right move. Longer range, 5G only, dual HDMI + SDI in/outs. Only HUGE bummer with the Pyro is the antenna. It doesn't look like the bullet-style antenna used on the Mars system is compatible with the Pyro.. I'm leaning towards the new Pyro but am worried about the bulkiness that would come with the paddle antenna. Curious to hear what you think

    • @thomas.kovacik
      @thomas.kovacik  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      it seems nice! lots of range is ideal
      ohhh that's interesting, wonder if you'd be able to swap out those antennas
      I've been really happy with the hollyland for the majority of stuff I do. I'm still kinda kicking around the idea of moving into the dji transmission but we'll see.

    If i film with a panasonic gh5 in 4k 60fps can i still use this transmitter even though it only goes up to 4k 30fps? and is pulling focus with this possible but a little difficult?

    • @thomas.kovacik
      @thomas.kovacik  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes the output should work fine! Pulling focus will be off, I wouldn’t trust it for heavy action
      Your focus puller may have to guess a little haha
