Is there a protective case for this unit? I can only hold onto the shipping package for so long.
Asked by: Out dBox
You might consider the GlareGuard50. The magnetically attached Video Sunshade and Screen protector easily attaches to any 5" monitor. More details here: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1634476-REG/ocean_video_gg50_glareguard_5_0_video_hood.html?

I find that recording with this the audio is about 3-4 frames ahead of the video sync.Is there anyway to fix this? If not is there any unit I can purchase to fix this?
Asked by: Reave
If this is external audio the delay is common based on the source of the video. Many cameras have that much delay. Some users embed the audio with the video to get around this. There are audio delay devices that can be used for this purpose.

Can I record using UHS-I SD cards if I'm only recording 1080p ProRes video? Or do I still need UHS-II cards?
Asked by: Jaime
I've used a variety of UHS-1 cards (Mainly a 256gb Sandisk Extreme) and have had no issues in 1080p. Different cards will have different bitrates when they will start dropping frames. No way to figure it out but to test it.
