Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Dan,
Great news. Will the pre-record buffer also work with the 4K compressed codec? |

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Dear Cees,
The short answer: I do not know yet. The long answer: High Quality Compressed HD footage is typically 220 Megabytes per second (220 Mbps). 4K Compressed footage will be around 880 Mbps. If we can arrange to support a reasonable length pre-record buffer in 4K Compressed, then we will certainly want to do so.

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Thanks for the update Dan. Once question, what format is the "compressed footage"

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Dear Steve,
Under we finish the compressed codec, and then get it certified, we can't name the Codec. It is, however, a very popular codec. After we finish this compressed codec, we intend on finishing our DNxHD codec. Respectfully,

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Dear Steffen,
We have promised 4K Compressed recording from the upgraded Sony FS700 or the Sony FS700R, at up to 30 fps. We are being conservative. If we can make 4K Compressed up to 60 fps work, we will offer it. The 4K Compressed recording feature is not available yet, we have to complete our compressed codec first. Respectfully,

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Thanks Dan, That's a very clear statement of what is ready now and your plans for the future. Keep working at that compressed codec. When that's ready my money is in the mail.

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
Dear Leonard,
We are making very good progress on the compressed codec. If possible I will report again next week, if we reach a major milestone. Respectfully,

Re: Odyssey7Q now Shipping
They may be shipping but it is very small numbers. I'm #1 on the list with my vendor and they have no idea when they will be fulfilled. I don't hold out much hope of seeing mine till the end of the year.
