Sony AXP33 4K camera

[ParaShoot 0]

My dealer has one in stock now and I'm considering getting one.

Anybody already experience with the camera, especially while in freefall? Does the Hypeye work?

IIRC, the HypEye won't work with this model. Trunk may have certified it, but I believe it uses a different protocol.
The camera itself is great ('ve used the American model). Not a fan of the built-in projector, but it's a nice novelty (useless in any but a pitch-black room).

Yes, it's a nice camera. 4K version of my 760 with BOSS. Indeed don't like the projector and will probably never use it but can't take it off.

Good to know the HypEye might not work. I'll bring it to the shop to test.

Trunk, any idea if you'll get an updated version for this camera?

yep, in the manual says the VMC-AVM1 adapter is not compatible, the same like in almost every model since the CX410/430...
Looking forward for your test with my wide angle converter lens! :-)

Given that there are no wide angle converters designed to resolve 4K, there will be a significant loss of resolution, so beware...

Don't worry, my lens was designed to resolve 8K...

Now THAT, would be something.

We'll see Gus :).

If you're truly serious (i don't think you are), it would be unbelievable that you'd have a lens that can resolve 8K.

Canon just announced their new 8K lenses. Primes start at $44,000.00

For sure every converter will give some loss. Though the wide angle from Gus is by far the best lens I've ever had. Super sharp all over.

It would be good to really measure the resolution.

It's very, very easy to measure resolution; I have both charts and lasers.
I'd be stunned if it could accurately resolve 4K.

Gus?

Any raw test footage from the sky? With and without wide angle convertor? Any hiccups with getting it set up on a helmet? From what I can tell, the tripod mount looks like it has been moved forward a little bit from previous models.
