Thanks for the reply, the question started with grafting an
I2 video unit onto a homebuilt diy project. Without info or schematics..i have been in r/c for 50 years and wouldnt even consider that. I agree that without a certain skill set diy can be tough although units like s800s are know products.
I buy mostly off the rack myself but own three large hexs i rummaged up.. also i would love an I 2 ... although i own two i1 raws and the last one was only $3600 new in the plastic. Dealer panic over the new 2. It is hard to justify 9-10 k for an
I2 setup. And a basic one would be little better than my p4p and a lot harder to haul around..
peeps get all excited about raw and all until they see what it takes to deal with it. The video out of the p4p and x4s are fantastic... a $35 SD is hard to beat.
I just keep remembering my x5r was introduced at 6k a year ago so patience is a virtue....... if your shooting 10k a day gigs, and who has those, nothing matters but for me costly mistakes from being in a big hurry come out of my pocket.
Everyone loved THE CIRCLE but the colorist was 99% of that.. so dont fall head over heals.
P.s. Their is nothing magic about the video unit in a
I2 by the way just expensive hype. The cameras are nothing but sensors..
i am really irritated that my x5 and x5r wont fit on or adapt to the 2 and i am expected to buy all new SSDs ....??? I was at best buys yesterday and they had stand alone 500gig portable SSDs for laptops for $149. Certaily they care nothing for their customers and stay up nights figuring how to hook us again and again... about 20th time for me..
