Customer Statement “Using the FS-4Pro in time-lapse mode is a dream. Perfect time-lapse with instant playback. We soon realised that FireStore and tape less recording was use-full for other applications.”
“Such an arrangement would also have avoided the head clog which lost us one complete show as the FireStore would continue to record whatever problems the camera tape was encountering. We live and learn.”

Michael Bayley Hughes, Director / Camera / Final Cut Pro Editor Teleg Productions, Wales.
