johngooch Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 I have ACD301rf. Obviously, not one one the current generation of time code products but still very viable for 99% of workflows. I have used ambient slates for close to 20 years.... Love its size for doc work, fits in my bag when i need it to. ;( Not as user friendly as other slates. No backlight and no obvious way to change brightness is are some of their complaints. But once ACs get used to it- most like it. The weak point in design that i have found is battery compartment( weak point in most slates BTW) -- i have had connection repaired several times... sometimes fixed myself, sometimes sent to service dept. I have never had need for RF feature. Newer slates have more bells and whistles and much lower battery consumption.... brighter etc... j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
