These are the converters used to convert the HDMI output of the Sony camera's to the more useful SDI.
Usage
As these are battery converters, they have an On-Off switch to prevent running out of charge when not in use. Make sure it is switched on when in use and switched off when not.
The battery indicator is a small LED that flashes according to the remaining charge. The key for the flashes is printed on the top of the case.
Firmware
Firmware is updated using (the otherwise useless) Blackmagic Converter Utility software. They are currently held at 1.9, due to the HDMI handshaking in later versions not working correctly with our cameras and convincing them to output in an SD format. This has been fixed as of v3.0.2.
