TimeCode Generator Shootout ! Deity TC-1 Vs Denecke Vs Tentecle Vs Ambient

A side by side comparison of a bunch of the most popular timecode generators to see if they are accurate. Do they drift ? Let's compare the new Deity TC-1 to standards like the Denceke TB4, Tentacle Sync and the Ambient TC generator in the Sound Devices 833 to see how well they work. I also add a couple cameras into the mix to see how that works including changing batteries. Mega testing to be sure !

Great test. I have been looking at the Deity but was not sure how accurate they were. Thanks for sharing this info. I am curious why the Timecode Systems/Atomos UltraSync One was not tested?

thanks ! I don't own every piece of gear out there and a 3rd party didn't come through with a loaner for testing.... I wanted to test these against a very expensive master clock, which also didn't happen :(
