Why didn't the team just bolt together off-the-shelf DSLRs for this?
It seems like a lot of the low level problems were already solved by commercial camera makers many years before.
Even today with the R7, why not just bolt together Gopros and manually set the Aperture, ISO and shutter speed. You'd get better quality images, waterproof cameras and they'd be significantly cheaper.
