Just as many flexible trigger options as possible please. You want to have a total clip length that you can select. Displayed as a line, and then another line showing where there trigger is and this one you should be able to move:
_____| = most of the clip before plus a bit after the trigger
|_____ = a small pre-record and most after the Trigger.
compatibility with standard run/stop controls is essential. 3pin lemo triggers are the standard.
Yes! We will upload the RAW footage to the Slow-mo archive.
Thank you for your suggestion!
Since Spark can record continuously like a standard frame rate camera without buffer limitations, the “|_____ = a small pre-record and most after the Trigger” setup aligns better with Spark’s functionality.
Seconding these recommendations. Top notch designs and quality. One thing I’d say about my current Mid49 kit that I’d suggest keeping mind for the Spark: the knobs to tighten attachments are quite small and a bit fiddly, which for cold weather applications can be a bit problematic. For any shooting scenarios where gloves are needed - snow, winter surf etc - I’d recommend making these larger, and ensuring easy access. NATO attachments with big open-lock levers generally work well in these conditions and reduce the risk of frostbitten fingers 
Thanks for your suggestion! I’ll discuss this with our accessory manufacturer. By the way, we have considered this aspect to some extent (e.g., ensuring easy access to the memory card slot while wearing gloves in winter).
Hey, when are we going to get the private links? I noticed that the campaign has started…
Hey, have you received the link? If not, please send me your email via private message
It was great meeting you at IBC!Can’t wait to get one in my hands 
Also, very glad to see Mutiny is here!
Could you clarify if E mount has electronic connectors and we could use standard Sony FE lenses?
Would focus work?
Are there plans to offer additional mounting adapters, L mount for example? Thanks!
why wouldn’t focusing work? the issue is usually the aperture, for example ember with non-active mount
Hi Young, and nice to meet you virtually. To address your topics, I have a few lines to share with you.
I am a very early KickStarter supporter. Have had my order in for weeks now.
Yes, on a cage but you most likely will be inundated with many proposals from dozens of players in the field. Tilta, SmallRig, and even ARRI are in the game. They all have their pluses and minuses. I like the Octamas best.
The most modular and well built systems out there are from a company in Switzerland called Octamas Gear. Their systems are cross compatible and offer us owner operator as well as rental houses more common parts. This allows repurposing and a lot of savings. The design model allows the use of existing components. Only modules that need to be designed are the one to fit your specific physical design, and your points of attachments. Speaking of which do you have a diagram of such available?
Granted the modules are a bit more expensive but the reusability narrows the gape rapidly. Also their components are exceptionally well designed and machined. Think Swiss watches!
Foldable top handle please explain??
Right Handle, why not ambidextrous?
Base Plate, sure but are thinking apart from the cage?Power plates are a must. But are there off the shelf solutions for that already.
Other AKS, for sure but let’s see a more final design with your final In Out Ports etc…
Cordially,
- -

The E-mount adapter supports electronic connections, meaning you can focus, adjust the aperture, and change the focal length (e.g., when using zoom lenses). FE lenses will work perfectly fine.
The L-mount is something we’re considering as a new option! However, it requires joining the L-Mount Alliance, which seems to involve an application process and some review time. I haven’t looked into the details yet.
Hi Young,
I have been communicating with Jing regarding opportunities to capture Pixboom Spark slomo images at the Australian Open tennis tournament. I also have more news for you in relation to that and I’m sure you will be interested. Feel free to contact me via email to discuss further.
Thanks
Brian
I’m an engineer myself, and from a technical standpoint Bright Tangerine is by far the best-manufactured accessory brand (excluding ARRI, which is simply in a different price league). Their products are extremely lightweight and precisely machined, and mechanically everything is more thoughtfully designed than what most competitors offer. And yes, it’s definitely on the more expensive side — but still far from ARRI’s price range.
Thank you 
yes the accessories are extremely important for the builds. I love both smallrig and tilta but for the most part go with Tilta for most of my needs esp since I live in Burbank CA. Smallrig provides sometimes a cheaper alternative but Tilta seems to always embrace a system and build out and hear their customers as well.
For the full camera cage it would be beneficial to have the abilities to fully accessorize which means 1/4 20 and 3/8 holes as much as possible along with a rail system to slide on off accessories for different builds.
v mount to gold mount is essential bc hopefully the 3rd party will allow for not just battery but also for power outputs for other accessories.
I have attached a photo of a hand held build of my Red Komodo (similar in size to the Spark) as suggestion for a build. Please refer it as you like
thank you!
Sick!! Love the sport 
Thanks for sharing that photo and the feedback! Actually, Tilta is one of our partners too, and they’re currently working on accessories for Spark.
I’m curious about the Gold Mount request—what’s the main reason you prefer that for your setup? Would a standard V-mount work for you instead?
Here in the US the standard is gold mount. All my batteries currently are gold mount and they provide a better contact and hold to the body — it’s just all I’ve ever used.
