Hello Focusbug users! I'm using my new Arri Hi5 handset with my existing Focusbug. I'm wondering if it makes sense to buy the Focusbug license for the handset? Before I go ahead, I would like to ask the community if it's really worth it, what advantages it has and if you have a video of the features on the handset? In my configuration, I have the CineRT handset right next to my monitor to adjust any settings depending on the needs: film plane offset, lockouts, etc If the Focusbug license on the Hi5 is going to allow me to tweak the same settings that I control on the handset, I don't really see the point on spending the money on the license itself. I hope you can prove me wrong :) Thanks!

Hi All! We are finishing work with ARRI ECS on a SUP 2 for the license. This new version will open up the option to assign more buttons for "surface level" functions from the main page like source toggling, etc.
As soon as the firmware is complete I plan on shooting a Tech Talk to walk through the integration.
In the meantime, I have to say that the ability to collect marks with your Cine RT Handset and have those marks appear remotely on the Hi-5 distance scale is pretty great if that is part of your workflow!
Best,
Laird
