    Wow. Canon EF lenses working WITH IS on an NX1.... THAT would be some large jar of awesome sauce.

    As for the hack - It's fine if it doesn't go any further because it already has added so much. I say "let it be finished". One less thing to always be updating, right?
    As for it only adding "ten-percent better image quality", well that's HUGE. That's a lot. Especially if it's doing it right where it's needed.
    For critical images it has been worth the effort. I can get footage to work when cut in with higher-grade cameras now that that grunge in the shadows has been cleaned up. That was enough. Heck, it's everything really. If not for that one factor, I probably would have had to let my NX1 go in exchange for something a lot more expensive.

    Your sense of style just gets better and better.

    I haven;t been around here much lately because my NX1 is just WORKIN'. Ya know what I mean?
    I put in Andrew's whole LUG-LUT settings and post routine, and it's just been GREAT. So nothing to report.

    But RICARDO...
    Boom! You've really tapped into an interesting recipe here.
    I've put in your settings and shot a few things and I agree - very nice.
    A different feel than the EOS Log-LUT thing, but I like them both. Once I've shot a bit more with Ricardo's set and got to know it better - then I'll have two distinct looks out of the NX1.

    I think the NX1 screams with the Sigma ART lenses, but boy I'd still love to have that 16-50S lens to really finish the deal.
    And I was RIGHT! Back when the camera got knocked out of production, I KNEW the prices for those "S" lenses were not going to come down....
    Oh well...at least you DO get what you pay for with them.

    ~Cheers all!

    You can use Kino Seed hack or Vasile's. Vasile is mainly focus on bitrates and biggest benefit is that it is loaded instantly without any waiting and camera behaves like without hack (but you can change bitrates in camera and they will survive even cold boots if you make them defaults - can be done in GUI).
    bitrate patch itself
    https://github.com/ottokiksmaler/nx500_nx1_modding/tree/master/video-bitrate-mods/nx-patch
    to make it work you have to install nx-on-wake which is only complicated and (to be honest) dangerous part of whole process.

    I have installed version 5.2 on my NX1. Thank you very much Vasile! There are now slots for Normal bitrates so no I can use different bitrate setup for timelapse (eg. 320 Mbps), 4k30p (180), 1080p60 (150), 120fps (100-110Mbps),...
    Also activation of GUI via luminance button is great choice... I really do not see any downsides now!
    I am wondering what will come next... silent shutter on NX1 would be great ( I know it is very complicated - I saw your post to Marco od dpreview).
    However this already outperformed what I have ever expected from whole NX1/NX500 hacking project - custom bitrate settings for each resolution which runs without any waiting and so smooth... BIG THANKS.

    DPStewart got a reaction from iamoui in Aputure: the Blackmagic of lighting   
    I am currently using 2 Aputure 672s lights on lightweight 10' stands with 43" shoot-through umbrellas mounted for SERIOUS run-and-gun stuff... I mean like we have from 10-minutes to maybe 30-minutes to get the shots before we get either nailed by security or flat out arrested.
    The guy carrying BOTH light fixtures may even have to climb over fences, etc.,

    Using these Aputures was the only way this was going to work. And it surely does work. Killer.

    agreed DPStewart, for me personally, I dont care about any of the additions, bit rate is the only thing I care about so far as I have an NX1. I am still yet to try it, as my camera is currently travelling with my brother. but looking forward to giving it a go when I get it back! keep up the good work all involved,
    ..and I think most following the progress of the hack know where credit is due where the credit is due.

    Honestly - I never thought the NX1 hack would get this far!

    I can remember long ago, when we were all but children playing in the garden, back when Kidzrevil first posted this challenge....

    At the rate some of the folks here are carving deeper into the guts, I wouldn't be all that surprised if one day someone DID find a way to get a RAW video feed out of these kittens of ours.

    In the meantime it sure seems to be a resounding success even just in it's first couple of months, with the increased bit-rates cleaning up some of the problem areas in just the way I expected it would. Kudos to all involved.

    Now if only Otto or someone else could write a sub-script that would prevent me from pointing my NX1 at bad subject material...
