I think that Gabi with "gruas" means in remote crane situations (that's spanish!)

The two 4-pin lemos on the back have GPI and GPO... so the camera can be told to record from those ports. Furthermore, the USB ports on the side have access to the camera's functions and metadata [I believe...], so more in-depth control of the camera is only a creative software program away...

Which leads to... public API please.

I'm willing to bet an SDK will be out when it's appropriate.

Any chance there might be a bluetooth module shoehorned into this baby:biggrin:

Better yet, a bluetooh module, and a wi-fi video and data feed to the iPhone!

Bluetooth to a laptop would be totally sweet, even if by a post production secondary USB controller device. Look mom no wires.

[Jarred Land]

im sure some clever fellow will figure out how to make the USB port become a wireless USB port :)

What about something like this:

Makes normal USB wired devices wireless upto 10 meters using radio rather than bluetooth or 802.11, therefore negating the need for installing software onto the camera.

"... WiQuest's advanced UWB technology, capable of supporting higher data rates (up to 1 Gbps)..."

Makes you wonder if with speeds like that you couldn't actually send redcode wirelessly, or have wireless onset monitoring. Though I think this is limited to 3m.

Probably still requires a driver on the host Paul. Hang on...Ignore me I am being thick
