Over the last three weeks testing and shooting with the edgertronic high speed camera has given HSC the opportunity to branch out of the basic kit and expand on the way the camera can be interfaced with.   The small footprint of the body screams to be taken outside and on locations out of a controlled studio environment.

Part 3 of this review will focus on what kind of customization can be done by altering the connections and host computer to easily use the camera as a completely portable setup.   We will also go into a feature wishlist for the camera or future edgertronic products and our conclusion for the entire review. → Continue Reading Full Post ←
