It's due to sunlight entering the viewfinder. SmallHD is taking care of it even though they have warned against using it in the sun and they consider it 'user damage'. They will warn more explicitly because apparently (many) more users have this issue. (it can occur after 30 seconds exposure tot he sun)And they will provide a lenscap for the EVF. I will write more about the DP4 asap.Jeroen Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435448537547023350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123452922456141122.post-47678041996537337132011-09-30T19:19:53.450-07:002011-09-30T19:19:53.450-07:00Hi.

As you may have read, I bought aftermarket batteries and so far they've powered my DP4 for 1,5 hours. I'm keeping track how long they last.<br />SmallHD warns that you may get less battery-time if you use non-Canon batteries but if you buy OEM-batteries that others have been satisfied with, I think you'll be fine. <br />I'll write about my experiences with the DP4 some time soon and will also report on my battery-life.<br /><br />I'm glad you like the blog! (and let me hear what you finally decide on...)<br /><br />grtz, JeroenJeroen Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435448537547023350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123452922456141122.post-2369840528806876112011-08-11T07:21:39.780-07:002011-08-11T07:21:39.780-07:00Jeroen,

So far I really like what I see from smallhd, just one question. A couple of people say it gets very hot in normal use, is this true? And (assuming it gets hot) does it drain your batteries very quick?<br /><br />complimenten voor je blog, leuk om te lezen.

In the picture above, you see one 'false color mode' : the False Color HML (high, medium, low) setting, which has (gradients of) colors for under and overexposure and midrange. (Blue is underexposed, orange mid-range) The gradients go from blue to purple to orange to green to yellow)<br /><br />Alternatively, you can choose the HL (high, low) setting which will show blue for underexposure and yellow/red for overexposure.Jeroen Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435448537547023350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123452922456141122.post-78774114179865702302011-08-05T21:31:13.303-07:002011-08-05T21:31:13.303-07:00Does it have zebra's?Does it have zebra's?roelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13360307474693608344noreply@blogger.com
