    Does anyone know if a red drive lemo-to-eSATA cable (like this http://coolcameragear.com/r2e-lemo-t...cable-p-1.html) is available locally in Oz?

    James,
    There is a Lemo supplier at Panavision. Nice guy....maybe he can make one up. Of course you'll need to know the wiring configuration.
    Dave,

    Thanks Dave. "Wiring configuration": mmmmmmm. I'll chase it up. Would Steve Thompsen (at John Barry) know the guy?

    If you go round the back to the loading dock on the far LHS there is an Lemo sign above the door where they have a millions lemo connectors. You could see if he's interested in doing up the cables. He'd need to contact Red for wiring diagram.

    James,

    I got one from Birns & Sawyer at a good discount. Not local, but turned up Downunder in 3 days. You can use mine if you need it urgently.

    Thanks Pawel! I'd love to do a speed test with it...Do you know if you can use it simultaneously with another drive ingesting via FW800?

    Hey James,

    I haven't tried it together with FW800.

    I can either bring it along for the next shoot in the Opera or you can pick it up this weekend if you need it sooner. Just give me a call on 040 747 2 747.

    Thanks Pawel. I'm thinking that next weekend will be fine. Not in a rush--just want to see how much faster it is, and then get one (or two) if it's worth it.

    Look forward to seeing you in there

    I have toyed a few times with making one. I have the connectors, just have not gone much further. Let me know if you still require one.
