Window 8.1 Screen Shot Recording

I shoot travel photos, quickly catching interactions between people or views that disappear as I run to catch up with others or shoot out a bus window. This camera is absolute perfection for that. Using a hand strap, I am able -- with one hand -- to view the shot on the screen, zoom to frame it, and hit the shutter button. I can wave the camera over my head or hold it down low or stretch out to the side, and still get a great shot fast. I was worried about motion blur, but looking at my recent shots for the first time, they are terrific! and this camera seems to shoot in the dark. I usually shoot in auto, occasionally do a pano, and have Scene set to close-ups for food. Having used a 24 - 105 L lens on my Canon 6D, I'm finding this 600mm a real joy. I can't say enough good things about this camera. Is every shot crystal clear? No, but most are and the sharpness is amazing. The silence feature is nice because I take so many shots the clicking is otherwise annoying to others. Drawbacks: I have to change the manner of focus to suit the occasion; often the camera focuses on the closest thing (i.e., raindrops on a window) and can't get past it. The screen is hard to see in bright light. Capturing facial expressions indoors is not as instant as with my Canon; the camera seems to struggle with focus in this and a few other indoor situations (but I haven't tried to optimize for this yet). I go through nearly 2 batteries a day instead of 3/4 battery with my Canon. I make books of my travel photos and have had some exhibited -- I expect that this new work will best what I have done in the past. If you shoot the way I shoot, buy this camera!

I am using it on a Black Magic 4k, it works perfectly recording at the maximum Braw 8.1

Lit up my entire backyard. Put it up on a hi-hi and shot thru a 3rd floor window to turn night into day.

I was shooting a shot with a hardwood floor that was reflecting the light from the window. A spin of the filter tray in the matte box and it was gone. Amazing.

I've mostly shot small objects at close range, (birds at a feeder, window frost, mushrooms), using a SONY A7RII camera. The results are sharp. I like the convenience of being able to toggle the auto focus and steady shot on/off using the lens switches. Manual focus with peaking is necessary when working with difficult to focus subjects like window frost. The removable tripod mount enable comfortable hand holding. The lens hood has a sliding opening whereby you can rotate a polarizing filter with the hood on.

If you're looking for a battery that will last forever this is almost it. You can get almost 6 hours of continous use out of this battery while recording and with the LCD screen on.

works well for our Sunday announcements recording using green screen.

I've had this unit for a few months now and I am very happy with the unit overall. The device captures various screen sizes and is perfect for capturing VGA and DVI sources from older computers that do not support the installation of a modern screen recording software. Perfect for creating video tutorials using older computer hardware. There was one issue many users have encountered when using the StreamCatcher software, and that being unable to move the GUI window from one monitor to another when using multiple monitors on a PC. This is actually possible to do, however it requires you to double click on the capture window to cycle through (x3) different GUI window sizes; Full Screen, Normal and Small. You can only move the StreamCatcher GUI window across to other Monitors when the GUI is in the SMALL window size. So you simply have to double click on the GUI capture window when you see your video feed, double click a couple of times...and you can toggle to the proper screen size and then move it across to your other shared PC monitors. :) Hope this information helps future users out there. A Great product! :)D Cheers! -Gerry

Great stuff. Used behind green screen to keep window light from showing through. Perfect solution.

I got a decent deal on this one. The screen is big enough for a split window setup so you practically replace two 27” monitors. Delivery was right on time, too!
