  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Birger Lens Mounts - Shipping / Confirmations

Guess it will, but don't count the IS of EF-lenses is that useful in anything else than still images. At least, that's my experience with the Canon XL-series cameras. Hopefully it will ne different, but we'll see ...

Yes, IS/VR technology in still lenses works in a different way than what we want for our moving pictures.

Pick and place machine is running. Built a few boards to prove that we are out of the woods. Should have more interesting things to say on thursday. It was a good day.

On the one hand this is good news ... HOWEVER ... does this mean that the first few units have not shipped (still) ? the wait continues ...
 
How many units are shipping this week? What is the highest order # that will be served in this first batch?

Mike from Aquavideo was supposed to receive something by Saturday ... Mike is usually quite informative but his silence does seem to suggest it's all still 'in the works' ? I hope I'm wrong :huh: the wait continues ...

Te he ... perhaps a 'Birger day' is approx the equivalent of a Gregorian calendar week, a 'Birger week' is the equivalent of a Gregorian calendar month and a 'Birger month' is the equivalent of a Gregorian calendar 7 months ? :unsure:
 
I don't think that Birger time is linear at all.

It is plain impossible to deduct a gregorian date from a Birger one.

There is some weird Einsteinian time warping going on. Which just proves that the mount itself is the work of a genius.

Birger was doing some final software changes as well as adding start/stop GPI i/o to the software and messed something up on Friday, he was fixing it on Saturday/sunday so supposed to send it out today instead.
 
Thanks for the update, Mike.
As much as I want this Birger mount ASAP, I'd rather there be at least a few days of real beta-testing before a larger amount of units are sent out. I can just imagine the nightmare it would be if units end up having to be sent back. Did you manage to get any fresh info about the knobs?
 
I'd still like an answer to the question: has Birger been working on the knobs during this time, or will those still start shipping "a few weeks" (ahem) after the mounts?
 
ok, let's place bets. build 16 delivered first or birger mount first?
