How to Use SDI Ports Safely

Показать описание
I always see a bunch of people on set who don't know this trick and they just always risk ruining the SDI port. It's really annoying when someone blows out an SDI port. I've had shoots where we had 4 SDI ports on a Phantom Flex 4K and only one of them was working. (and it was the clean feed...)

IMO, people are totally justified blaming the manufacturer. Engineers have known about this issue for how long, and they can't put a $1 isolation relay in my $XXXX camera why? Give me a break.

If I want to turn off the camera and monitor to save energy, without disconnecting the batteries, and then turn it on again after a while. Should I still follow the order of connecting/disconnecting the SDI cable, or is it only necessary when the power supply is physically disconnected? Thanks!

Ive been curious about if the batteries die? Do you just treat that like a battery swap
