I don't even own the Sigma FP/FP-L (although it has been on my mind for some time now) but these mods and the engineering behind it are really impressive!
Just installed mine after watching your easy-to-follow video guide. Genius design all round. Thank you for putting your fine engineering skills to good use for us all to benefit from.
Does anyone have any information on SSDs and their record times that can be used in conjunction with this to record 4K 12bit RAW stably and for long periods of time?
This is a design that pursues lightweight, using the M.2 SSD in size 2230/2242. It is suitable for relatively portable situations, with no problem shooting the highest bitrate, UHD 29.97fps DNG.
I recently ordered everything except the viewfinder and display screen mod and very satisfied with their products plus Dark Power Laboratory's willingness to assist me build out my rig has been tremendous! Highly recommended for any FP owner! Thank you!
I received the cage today. The newer design is great! I like that the Cine/Still button is now exposed and I appreciate all the additional mounting holes on the front…I am looking to mount PDAMovie Lidar focus soon. Thank you, thank you!
Hi, I found your kit on Aliexpress, do you also send an explanation video after purchasing? I have bmpcc6K, can I record at maximum quality on the external SSD?
To use the bottom ssd, which accessories are required? Bottom ssd slot, side usb connector and main body cage? Instead of main body cage, can I use my existing smallrig wooden cage(ccm 2518)?
@@DarkPowerLaboratoryis it true sigma fp can record to 4tb ssd now? I can’t remember where I heard this but my understanding was that it was previously limited to 2 tb.
I have a question for you: do you think you could somehow mount an EVF from a SD Quattro on a FPL? replacing the on off switch and maybe the mode switch. And create what Sigma should have done, a rangefinder FPL :) If you think, I will send you my cameras
Der Hauptgrund warum ich diese spezielle Sigma fp L nicht kaufen würde, ist das fehlende Klappdisplay. Du solltest es als Set zum Umbauen mit Anleitungen auf den Markt bringen! Oder hast du es gekauft? von wem? Ich würde aber den Akku herausmachen während des Umbaus.
Hi, I don't understand something here. Are the screen connector pins staggered ? I count 20 lines on screen connector but they are marked 1 to 41. And I see you use a 45 pins FFC. Am I missing something ? I'm confused.
I keep going back and forth about this camera. Does anyone know examples of independent filmmakers who used it for their independent feature film (not short film)? Curious to see if it can do the job. I bet the file size would be huge to process for a full indie film...
Equipment needs to be used reasonably to realize its value. Nothing is perfect. The advantage of this camera is its small size, and of course, the DNG format is also the main advantage. It only consumes SSD storage space, which is why this series of storage solutions are available. Simply put, they are suitable for individual or small team shooting projects.
