It's the perfect type of weather for indoor camera testing. The 4pm sunsets certainly help us control light spills in our studio. As we've shared in a few behind-the-scenes peeks, we've been busy setting up our new studio and getting our testing facility back up and running. This week, we celebrated our studio test scene becoming fully operational again. If you've been waiting to see test scenes from some recent cameras, your wait just got 1000x shorter.
