Chronos User Discussion / Re: Future Camera Idea Krontech: Chronos 2K but using a 2/3 sensor for lower cost

« on: August 01, 2024, 10:37:46 AM »

I really hope they would do more firmware features for the 1.4 and 2.1 but I don't think they will. But it would be nice to release a more budget friendly Chronos that is newer in sensor tech despite the smaller 2/3 sensor size and price it around $5500 - $6000. I'm sure they will get more sales from this more budget friendly option.

They can name the camera the "Chronos 2.5" based on the GSPRINT4502  data throughput.

Thanks! I was thinking more of real-world footage shot in DNG. Only if you can though.

Yes, I've been using the same method as well and it works great! Could you post some of your DNG samples? Would like to see how the 2.1 compares to the 1.4.

Can a Sony E-mount adapter version be made for the 1.4 and 2.1?

Used a custom OLPF over the Chronos 1.4 sensor. See the anamorphic clip below I shot with the 1.4 to see the difference between with and without the OLPF. Really hoping Krontech can make an inhouse OLPF for the Chronos cameras cause they do make a difference in the reduction of aliasing/moire in bright specular highlights and very fine detail.

I see. Sorry about your experience with Krontech. They've been pretty responsive and helpful to me. Enjoy the Freefly! It looks like to be a great camera and thanks for the sample! I would really like to test out their Chronos Q12.

I'm hoping Krontech can make a 2/3 sensor 2K 3000 fps camera that is around $6000. I feel like $15,000 is still a lot of money for the average joe. $6000 would be perfect for a smaller 2/3 sensor I think. I still think there is a market for a 2/3 sensor instead of the 4/3 or APS-C sensor. Greater depth of field is something I would want and there are a few sharp 0.95 lenses (Laowa, Meike, ie) in case you wanted to get more shallow DOF with a smaller sensor. Would not mind if they had to cut corners with record time and RAM (two - three seconds is perfect for me) for it to be cheaper at $6000. Gigapixel does indeed have a 2K 3000ish fps 2/3 sensor so hope they use it.

Chronos User Discussion / Re: 100,000 FPS with the 2.1 as previously advertised

« on: January 08, 2024, 06:16:32 AM »

What's the resolution to get to around 40,000 fps with the 2.1?

Here are a few settings the Chronos 2.1 can achieve near 40,000fps

HRes	VRes	FPS
1920	20	40496.8
1280	32	37745.3
1024	38	39787.8
800	52	39745.6

Would you be able to post video samples of each resolution?
