Blackmagic Camera Control 1.0.3 Feedback

PostFri Jun 05, 2020 1:52 am

Just downloaded and tested on my UMP G2. Although the Iris control is better, it's still not as good as it can be. Moving the slider to position it still jumps back to start. Also it goes down/up in weird increments for the left and right arrow buttons. I went from 1.9 to 2.1 and such and never got on the solid 2.0, 2.8, or 4.0 common iris points.

Right now Bluetooth+ for Blackmagic is still a better app option. Especially because I can use a phone with it.

But still appreciative of the update! Thank you!

EDIT: Should note I was using Sigma Art 18-35 f1.8 EF lens.

Thanks for the feedback yes that bug requires a fix at the G2 end as well so that will come through in the next URSA Mini Pro G2 update.

Did a quick connection test on the pocket 6k and UrsaG2. My hopes where high that this version features a stills image shutterbutton as well... would be so cool and essential when you need to combine stop-Motion and Video. All my hopes for v. 1.04.
