Re: Bresser 60mm F/2.8 Macrolens for MFT
2:1 magnification is insane! I have 1:1 and have shot similar as photographs, but that looks much, much closer, and for the price, that's a brilliant bargain!

Re: Renting 3rd Camera for Wedding
The Father of the Bride - that explains it! Did you try any de-noiser software, because the audio from him sounded audible and fine, but the hiss was quite present.
The other issue I had with the...

Re: Renting 3rd Camera for Wedding
How did you capture audio for your wedding film? The background noise is something serious... I'd definitely recommend investing in audio capture before taking on another camera... I think that your...

Re: Beware: Vimeo's new default setting
Mine too. If the default or lowest possible was 540p, then I would accept that... but sometimes it's a buggy mess. The codec is breaking up and it looks absolutely terrible. NO ONE wants to watch a...

Re: Beware: Vimeo's new default setting
Old news, really, not that it should be ignored.
I absolutely HATE what Vimeo has done. I would rather force my users to buffer at 720p, than to have them watch it in 360p. Non-HD content should...

Re: First foray into 4K with a AX100 - tips?
Daft thing I've done - shoot indoors with the ND filter on setting 3! I was in a rush, and didn't realise why I needed to up the gain so much - figured it was just being poor in low light and...

In fairness to your viewpoint though, I really don't think we take much credit for the photographer's part.
If anything, it's sometimes cringe-worthy what some photographers set up (and it...

Re: Went Crazy and got a GH4
Definitely. It's worth paying a premium for this too! I would pay another £250 for the GH5 if it enabled unlimited time recording.
