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 :)
FD to EF requires an adapter with an optic. If possible it's better to convert them to EF mount. There are still 3 companies who offer kits for this. Also on ebay for that matter.
With Jarred's tease this evening....
It appears there will be three options now for DSMC3 EVFs:

Much like I did for the OG Komodo launch, I'm going to post some notes along the way. Won't go as hard as I'm currently on a project, but I'll keep it to the most critical things. This will be a repository that will likely have some info ending up in a sticky or whatever.

Here's a copy of what I blasted on Facebook last night in regards to the latest and greatest hardware versus camera solutions today with some notes about some incoming codecs and such. Definitely a stream of conscious post, but perhaps useful for those with older or not-so-older hardware...
A lot gets lost in the hay and day to day chatter, but I feel compelled to make a post to touch on a few topics as things are looking to shape up in a variety of directions.
