    Have my first real job with #271 tomorrow. It's kind of a run-and-gun but still the first real use of my camera. Going to shoot 2K for storage times.

    So now I am curious to know if resolution affects battery life. Does running the sensor at full 4K draw noticeably any more power? Or, does forcing the sensor to window to 2K draw more? Is either one really enough to make a difference in overall power draw and usage.

    Also, from searching here it would seem most people are getting about 90-minutes per brick? Is that with constant power or cycling off and on as needed?

    Thank you.

    No difference in the power consumption.
