  1. I got a hawkwoods DV-SQNS4 a month ago and have been very happy with it.

    http://picasaweb.google.com/rado.stefano/HawkWoods#

    Plus Lenmar $20 charger and 2 lenmar LIS970P 7800mAh 7.2V batteries  " not in the picture

    Charger charges the battery in 2 - 2.30 hours

    I have been very happy with this setup. I power SD744t Mixpre 2 senn g3 RX and lasts me more then a day.

    $200 for the battery distro $20 for charger and $120 for batteries.

    $340 battery system. Half the price of IDX NP1.

    Not to mention all the sony batteries I have laying around.

    I keep the distro in the back of my pegz case.

    Pros

    Very good solution for small timers like me. Batteries are sold in every store: Frys, BestBuy.Borrow a battery for the camera person anytime. "has not happened to me yet"

    Small Cons

    Impossible to find online.

    A little wider then IDX battery and RA distro

  2. For earpieces Shure is the best  have ever heard.

    They know how to make wireless,earplugs and vinyl needles.

    I use to work with Shure Wireless almost exclusively in my LIVE performance work,

    How come they do not have broadcast products?

    Sorry for OUT OF TOPIC.

  3. Thanks for correcting me. Bang and Olufson is what I meant.

    I think you meant B&W but B&O (Bang & Olufson) is a company that has always gone for "the look" of the product, sometimes sacrificing any real effort in other areas.

  4. I am out of the conversation forever.

    DO not want to be assassinated by brainwashed cult member. (:

    Rado,

    Perhaps you're not aware but...

    On the wall of his meditation room, our venerable host has a large Apple logo with spotlights trained on it.

    Next thing ya know, you're gonna start badmouthing Zaxcom...  Then we're all doomed!

    At least, wait'll Jeff lands another big show.

    Full disclosure:  I own many PCs, my main editing system is a Mac, I record on a Deva, and my Smart Phone uses the Android system.

  5. Hahahaha

    I am not trying to cause anything.Just sharing info.

    ....

    ....

    I wrote for 5 mins and deleted everything.

    I would refrain from posting anything apple related.

    Holy shit Rado, what the hell are you trying to do?  Cause a riot? You know this site is lousy with Apple apostles.  The next thing you know you'll be spouting off about how it's OK to shop at Walmart.

  6. I am sure there is plenty of 5d you have already seen if you watch TV.

    Regarding rolling shutter:

    Unlike Audio, Video has a lot of "FIX IT IN POST" solutions.

    Wow, I'll have to watch this and see how good/bad/ugly it looks. I did check out the Canons at NAB last week, and the rolling shutter "jutter" issue is still there -- a whole lotta motion artifacts goin' on, especially in pans.

    Loved the Arri Alexa, though. Man, that thing makes great-looking pictures, judging by the demos. Hard to say how noisy the fan was, because of the non-stop howling din of the Vegas Convention Center. But it looks much more like a finished product than the Red to me.

  7. B&W started improving design and loosing quality long time ago.

    My best friend is crazy about them and owns from speakers to blue tooth headsets.

    Majority of the products does not impress me at all.

    B&W genrally makes good stuff (legendary loudspeakers) but it is doubtful they actually make these. Very pretty to look at and I am sure they sound good, but "noise isolating"? They are not active noise canceling headphones as far as I can tell, and they don't really fit over the ear enclosing the air space, so I think they probably would not work for our purposes.

  8. It sucks when politicians take stands on issues they clearly do not understand.the world should be run by engineers and scientists.

    Flash is not just a video codec! It is a multiOS platform. Beats Java and any other platform.

    Not to mention there are a lot of problems with html5 and video.

    What sucks about flash is that is unusable for google/bing searches.

    Here is a very good UNBIASED article.

    That is way

    Interesting article about anti-trust investigation of Apple

    Former U.S. Labor Secretary Defends Apple on Antitrust Issues

    Wednesday May 05,

    Written by Eric Slivka

    In a widely-publicized blog post today, Robert Reich, who served as U.S. Secretary of Labor under Bill Clinton, offers his thoughts on the rumored antitrust inquiry being considered by federal regulators over Apple's exclusion of cross-compilers for creation of applications running on its iPhone OS devices. Reich argues that the Federal Trade Commission's efforts targeting Apple could be better spent on investigating Wall Street banks, but federal law excludes the financial industry from the FTC's purview.

    Our future well being depends more on people like Steve Jobs who invent real products that can improve our lives, than it does on people like [JPMorgan Chase CEO] Jamie Dimon who invent financial products that do little other than threaten our economy.

    Reich's position is that Apple's move is not anti-competitive, with many other companies rapidly innovating in the sector, and if Apple's decision results in less competition on the iPhone platform, Apple itself will be the one to suffer.

    Apple's supposed sin was to tell software developers that if they want to make apps for iPhones and iPads they have to use Apple programming tools. No more outside tools (like Adobe's Flash format) that can run on rival devices like Google's Android phones and RIM's BlackBerrys.

    What's wrong with that? Apple says it's necessary to maintain quality. If consumers disagree they can buy platforms elsewhere. Apple was the world's #3 smartphone supplier in 2009, with 16.2 percent of worldwide market share. RIM was #2, with 18.8 percent. Google isn't exactly a wallflower. These and other firms are innovating like mad, as are tens of thousands of independent developers. If Apple's decision reduces the number of future apps that can run on its products, Apple will suffer and presumably change its mind.

    While Reich is not the first to make this argument, his public statement comes with the perspective of an academic and political insider who has spent considerable time in the upper reaches of government.

  9. The biggest issue I have with Jobs is the notion that blu ray is useless since you can download High Def from Itunes.

    I just got Avatar Blu Ray and watched on ps3 and TC-P54V10

    WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

    MATCH 40 gb M2ts with a download Jobs.

    You know today I put InsomiaX on this chick's macbookpro and she could not believe it!

  10. Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!

    Will HTML5 be more popular in the future, sure.  Is it a popular standard now, no.

    I personally like my current devices to work with what is available now not necessarily what might be the the standard 2 years from now.  2 years from now I'm sure my phone will be obsolete anyway because of hardware network issues not because of artificial firmware limitations imposed by a control freak company.
