Hi there - with the newest Alexa 35 firmware update the camera is now able to adjust ISO on the camera body while recording, but the Hi-5 is not allowing that ISO adjustment to be made via the hand unit. Will that matching capability on the Hi-5 be coming via firmware update soon? Thanks!

Hey Jeff,

you're right, it is not possible at the moment. I've posted your feature request to our PM.

Hey Jeff,

it is scheduled for 1.3, we'll see... BUT here's a workaround that apparently works:
  • Assign EI+ and EI- to two camera UB (On camera Handunit UB)
  • Assign these camera UB on Hi-5 to Hi-5 UB (example UB1-3)
  • Adjust EI during REC by Hi-5 User Buttons
Cheers,
Jan
