  1. lol... I try to live by the Idea it never hurts to ask... worst they can say is no! Tried to get Photodiox to match the price of Varvon NX-1 cage sale....($50) Here is my email.. Hi I am a Samsung NX-1 camera user and the camera is a dead system. I am a fan of your products I have a few adapters which are great. I've noticed that your competitor Varavon Has been offing products similar to your shark cage for the NX-1 at reduced prices I figured before I buy it I would rather get your product if the price is the same. http://varavon.com/collections/hot-deal-zone/products/armor-nx1?variant=1176714847 would much rather buy yours. would you sell me one of your back stock NX-1 Shark Cages and match this price? It seems reasonable as there will never be another Samsung NX product. Here is their response: Thank you for your inquiry, but unfortunately we are not able to match the price of the cage that is listed in the link provided. The best price we can offer you is $215 for the Sharkcage. Please let us know if you are interested in purchasing the Sharkcage at $215. Kind Regards, Fotodiox, Inc. Eh not that great of a deal but I got $85 off. Its listed as $300 on their site https://fotodioxpro.com/products/sharkcage-nx1 Still to rich for my blood but if anybody is interested email them: info@fotodox.com Man I bet if we put our buying power together on things like a groupon type buy we could negotiate some good discounts... Imagine if we were to for example order 20 GH5's in one bulk shot I bet we could get a serious discount. Now logistically it would be a nightmare... and what about returns and shit... ah Ahh it would never work....

  3. I just got a new toy Pocket cinema camera with 12 batteries original box and cords. For $125?! I just had to snap it up! http://www.ebay.com/itm/222380590185?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT#viTabs_0 He says it has dead/hot pixels... Like 6 of them I got it and tested it out but I don't see anything wrong with the picture... Perhaps it comes and goes or only happens when its hot? anyways great cheap way to get my feet wet with raw... Just waiting for amazon to send my extreme pro card. And if the seller happens to be here on EOSHD Thanks

  5. In January 2017 Has this problem of no audio coming in with NX1 Native Files been "RESOLVED"... (oh I kill me)... Im considering dropping $400 for a windows dongle. And how is performance with H265? choppy? Smooth?
  6. Hi all I use NX-1 exclusively and have been using premiere 2017 with out of camera files with no transcoding. It works pretty well. I've been studying CC and all the books keep harpin on resolve I been messing with it it's great I just started transcoding a single hero shot to resolve to make a lut. And take to premere. Im thinking of buying a dongle to unlock it and use it for everything. I'd gain 4k export and H265 support. Anybody have experence using h265 in resolve? Is it fast as premere? I really hate the transcoding process and want to use it raw out of NX1. If you could enlighten me on the plus and minuses of resolve it would be a big help... Plan to buy soon
  7. I had no Idea... here you go https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_NX1 Now get to work making an active ef mount!
  8. AM I RIGHT?? They would let you take this and a rig on the airplane im sure!
  9. The saga continues he just dropped a Unboxing video for NX-L that thing is some serious engineering! (make sure to put subtitles to English)
  10. Looks Like your getting some free press... Cool NX-1 user in South Korea(I think... Maybe he was on the samsung team?) just dropped a promo for an NXL review.
  11. Interesting take don't know how I fall on this....yet
  12. I saw this and thought it was gimmicky then its seemed pretty cool but its hard to find.... I use my mono pod on my shoulder from time to time. They seem to be rare the only one I found was like $400 from a guy in india + $50 shipping to USA.... I was trying to figure out how to mod my Sirui Monopod FreeStanding with a video head like this but Id need 3 things.... 1) Those handles that spin freely... and lock when you need them too I was thinking I could make some also collapsible handles would be nice. 2)The base plate is unique its like an L shape that you can use to slide the camera to the center of you face to off set when its on your shoulder... Maybe add some type of padding.... 3) its weighted at the bottom mainly for the stabilization mode... but I could see a potental terrible accident walking like that!! I could just put some cheap weight at the bottom of my mono pod it would be like this but free standing and a video head..... Any Ideas on how to DO it? we can market as EOSHD Signature Series Anthro-pod MK 1 (all rights reserved Juxx989 Inc 2017) MXXXLIIX
  13. Alas... it seems The Fellowship if the NX Hack is broken... But long shall the memories of their deeds echo through these halls.... and thanks for the heads up I never heard that it can fry your sensor... Perhaps Ill reconsider its use....
  14. Hey all thanks for the info... I tried to install Ks Mod 2 on my NX-1 with 1.40 it didn't take found an older version and it works... I assume if I update to firmware 1.41 I can use KS Mod 2 is there any difference in performance between KS Mod 1 and 2? Also I tried to go straight to 320 bitrate and the camera was not having it.. same a 200 bit I put on 180 and its good... I got a test file on my computer computer and I definitely see a difference.. all though my premiere is choking a little on full rez... ran smooth on original rate.... Have you guys come up with a favorable performance/file size/Quality ratio? According the law of diminishing returns what have you found to be the best bit rate? Perhaps 160bit simply 2x original rez?
  15. Hi all I have had my NX-1 about a year and have sorta been keeping tabs on the hack news.... Guess I figured Id let braver souls risk blowing up their cameras before I would try... I like the looks of my stock nx1 but was wondering if I boost the bit rate will make it easier or more flexible to Color grade it? is it more RAW like? What is the best hack to use today? any links? Any horror stories? Burnt out sensors? Bricked Cameras? Does it shorten the projected life of the camera? Thanks in advance peeps
  16. @ BrooklynDAN This is legit... That actor was pretty good... Liked it alot! I been looking around about this and it seems Danny Boyle Shot 28 Days Later with an XL1... this thing is no joke! http://indiediyfilm.blogspot.com/2009/11/28-days-later-all-shot-on-xl1.html
  17. So all I got to do is get a BlackMagic recorder/screen and Im in 4:2:2 SD VIDEO Heaven!? Samsung is out the window!! Retro is in these days... This won video of the year...
  18. well you know when your known as the "camera guy" in your circle people keep dumping these old cameras I don't know what to do with...Earlier this year somebody gave me a Nikon D50 thats just sitting there....and just today this woman down the hall gives me a Canon XL-1 I can lie my heart dropped a little you dont know How much I wanted one back in 2000 when I worked at a local CBS station... I have a NX-1 with 16-50s , 30mm, 45mm,16mm... about 6 old manual lenses... What do I do with this Canon? Perhaps a good prop? Well at least it will look cool on my camera shelf....
  19. CAUTION: What has been seen cant be unseen dont blame me if this disturbing footage haunts your dreams.....
  20. Are you bringing a underwater housing? Would you have to keep adjusting white balance all the time? Careful I hear that if you mess around and one of the wrong type of stage lights goes into the lens it can fry your sensor... Or maybe that's older cameras...
  21. Yeah that cage varavon cage is a great deal... but I love my NX-1 w battery grip its so comfortable.... I like the extra weight I was thinking do I know somebody that can fabricate it cut the bottom off get 2 generic cheese plates and weld an extension to make it fit the battery grip? Does aluminum even weld well whale wail? Plus cant think of anybody to do it... Its an Idea tho....
  22. Seems I found one... if your looking as well here it is.... https://www.amazon.com/SmallRig%C2%AE-Quick-Camera-Cage-Battery/dp/B00QG9DI44/ref=pd_cp_421_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00QG9DI44&pd_rd_r=Z21VEM0S8M3MGN2CKETT&pd_rd_w=vIL4U&pd_rd_wg=cSlVr&psc=1&refRID=Z21VEM0S8M3MGN2CKETT Tried to delete post but cant figure out how...
  23. Hi trying get or make a cage that can take my nx1 with the battery grip installed. its about 6 inches tall with it...
