Excited for the IMX585 chip. Player One has cool looking cameras and I’ve heard good things about their performance. It will be my first camera capable of uncompressed video as I’m currently using my Sony camera.
Does the camera have a BIN2 mode? I have a Powermate 5x if BIN2 is enabled, I won’t need to buy a new Barlow / focal extender.
Thank you so much, Ish. Yes, the camera have BIN2 mode.
