Sigma CEO Yamaki about the 15fps limitation

Share

From minute 44 you can see Chris asking Sigma CEO Yamaki about the Sony limitation of 15 frames per second. Yamaki cautiously replies that it is difficult for him to comment on this and that of course he hopes this will change in the future.

I hope Sony realize that they are hurting themselves by imposing such a strict restriction.

The full interview can be followed from minute 20 to 55.
