Re: Best shooting technique for hand held video
I've never got shoulder rigs. Buy a third party eyecup and shove your eyeball in the evf. You don't see much wobble with your eyes do you? Similarly, if your camera is glued to it. Your head is the...

Re: Harsh?
I don't often disagree on this forum, but this hypothetical situation is in no way comparable. How are the speeches more our thing than the photographers? What do we put in? From what I can see its...

Re: Harsh?
In fairness, I can sort of see their point. When our video or photos get's used by a hotel or other vendor without permission or credit we take offence. Is it not similar if a photographer creates a...

Re: 24-70mm on fullframe or 18-35mm in APS-C mode?
Good man Peter. I feel f4 is just not fast enough for me personally, but 2.8 would certainly suffice.
I just wonder if there would be a few key portrait shots where I'd be annoyed I wasn't shooting...

24-70mm on fullframe or 18-35mm in APS-C mode?
For maybe the third time now I keep coming back to the notion of just simplifying my wedding setup and shooting on a zoom for most of the day. Lately I've been switching between my 35 and 85mm...

Hi Kyle, super work!
As a Christian myself I can appreciate a lot of the elements and loved reading your Facebook post. Whilst I take all bookings, I'm always quite happy when I realise it's a B&G...

Re: Auto settings on backlit top table. Tips?
Thanks Chris, I'd not heard of that method before - I'll take a look!
As for the EV, I had thought about that, but like I said I expected the hotel to raise the lights again, so +3 EV might have...

Auto settings on backlit top table. Tips?
There was a surprised singing event happening during the meal at a wedding yesterday. I had to be ready and didn't know exactly when it would kick off. I would be operating a gimbal around the room...

Re: Lens changing and focal lengths
The cool thing about the A7 series is the crop mode for extra reach.
If I could be content knowing that f2.8 gave me enough bokeh in all shots, I would probably save for the G Master 24-70, and...

Re: Lens changing and focal lengths
I wonder if part of my frustration was about getting to the lenses for swapping. I reckon a few belt lens pouches would make changing over a bit more convenient.
Perhaps it's more a zooms versus...

Re: Lens changing and focal lengths
Thanks guys. Funny that since moving to Sony a7s and now a7sii, I almost don't think of lens aperture in terms of light levels. (How it should be I might add).
It's all about DOF, and I think in...

Lens changing and focal lengths

Re: DJ Light Mounting advice
I need to do the best I can to make my video look good. I can no longer rely Bands/DJs to do that. I'll happily talk to them and explain. I'll be gone after 3/4 songs, and then they can turn the...
