Ryan, you frame your questions in a totally illogical manner, hidden in with middle of other unrelated stuff, google is your friend in these matters. There are companies that specialise in adapters and they can provide all sorts of adapters.

Cinema cameras don't have stabilisation because they're operated by people using tripods, dollies etc and have rigs designed for hand held shooting etc. You can get stabilized lenses, but they're separate from the camera, They also tend to be lot bigger than DSLRs

Please do more research, all this information is available online, it's so easy these days.

I think we've developed a bit of a quest with Ryan, and we genuinely want him to progress. Fair enough, it is hard sometimes, but the world now places more emphasis on these kinds of discussions. there are a few useful things generated , but of course hundreds of posts is excessive. If the forum management are OK with it, I'd like to think it does no harm, but for casual readers must appear very odd. About time Ryan started a new topic.

HOWEVER - I do wish he'd give us updates on each project. Every time, he suddenly stops posting and the topics die. For example - how did the feature planning go? how did the booming go? how did the wildlife shooting go, and how did the problem with the friend turn out? It's like we never get the final chapter in any quest.

I just made the new lens and camera first priority at the moment. But I can let me you know the wildlife one went. When you say booming, do you mean the booming for the nature documentary?

I assume he means the mic booming, which was the subject of a very long thread,

I did, but I guess an ocean of water has gone under the bridge since then.

Oh you mean the booming in general. Sorry, I thought you meant for a specific project. The booming has been going good, cause I've been putting a Rode Blimp over the mic which helps. It takes up space indoors and has a greater chance of touching ceilings, so I want to get a smaller wind cover, which I will do, but it's going good if I put that on.

ah - so you've solved the wind noise problem, but now want to get a less effective one because of ceiling height? Just practice Ryan. Low ceilings are normal. If your mic moves are now silent, you solved that problem so all you need to do now is practice so you don't thump the ceiling - NOT - swap the solution, that's daft!

When I read Paul’s responses I like to imagine him at work: another crew member comes up and says “You seem distracted, everything ok?”

Paul answers “I can’t stop thinking about Ryan Elder. Why would he...I mean it makes no...how could anyone...”

Crew guy says, “THIS again? Youve been obsessed with him for months. Youve got to stop reading those threads. Theyre eroding your sanity.”

Paul looks at crew guy with haunted eyes that gave seen too much to ever come back from and says “I know.”

Cut to paul awake at 3am, staring out a window, smoking, an ashtray full of butts on a table next to him, bags black as night under his eyes from months without sleep, hair a mess, and Ryan’s words from nine months of threads circling through his mind endlessly.

Don't joke Josh, you have no idea how close this image actually is. In truth, I've no idea why I keep at it - especially when so much advice gets rejected immediately or mangled. Maybe we could do a movie - Educating Ryan?

I'll try to stop (but I said that to myself two weeks ago. What I don't understand is how the time difference seems to not matter - topics grow and grow all the time irrespective of the time of day. I have three screens inthe studio here, and every time I have to wait for the machines, I have a little look. Kind of theraputic after three hours of some horrible classical composer who wrote every piece of his music when very angry - tha I've been working on for weeks.

I imagine Paul as Commissioner Dreyfus and Ryan as Inspector Jacques Clouseau. You’re driving yourself crazy giving him advice. If you’re not careful you’ll soon be in a straight jacket talking to yourself. “he’s recording V.O. in the woods” [laughing hysterically]

I would schedule an intervention, but... I'm the enabler.

A third of us are obsessed, a third able to occasionally dive into the fray, and a third eating popcorn while we laugh manically and watch the whole thing burn.

Yep - I know. I had exactly the same trouble when I was an examiner, and got promoted and promoted till I was setting qualification, deciding what to test them on and then watching as many failed. Then I started to do the training for the teachers had exactly the same response.

I just can't get comfy with him not getting it, but you're all right. It is becoming pointless and the circle closes shut again and again.

I'll try to keep quiet, but then Ryan posts some other 'rule' or "so you are saying ........." and it eats away at me. I'd love to see his name on a serious TV or movie end credit and say Yes! he got there. It happens with some of my old students and I always feel good and smile.

Shakespeare had a script for this 400 years ago:

Doctor. You see, her eyes are open.
Gentlewoman. Ay, but their sense are shut.
Doctor. What is it she does now? Look, how she rubs her hands.
Gentlewoman. It is an accustomed action with her, to seem thus washing her hands: I have known her go continue in this a quarter of an hour.
Lady Macbeth. Yet here's a spot.
Doctor. Hark, she speaks! I will set down what comes from her, to satisfy my remembrance the more strongly.
Lady Macbeth. Out, damned spot! Out, I say! One: two: why, then 'tis time to do it. Hell is murky! Fie, my lord, fie! a soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?

Cast Ryan as Lady Macbeth, and any 2 of the any other posters as the Doctor and the Gentlewoman/man.
Can Lady Macbeth now sleep at ease?

The Hitler Bunker one would be good!

Since I was planning on getting a new camera, soon, possibly a blackmagic camera, or something like that, are there any cameras like those, that have a plug in option, so you don't have to use battery power all the time?

I like how field recorders often come with a plug in option, if you the camera is static, and there are a lot of outlits around, so why not. But are there any cameras with that option to save on battery power?

I would assume literally every camera has the ability to run off AC power.

Best check the Blackmagic site for these details and accessories. The new 6k pocket cameras will run on 12V DC, so with a suitable connector, there's a lot of options for powering from the mains or using external batteries.

are there any cameras with that option to save on battery power?

I am unaware of any that do NOT have that option.

Even your Rebel T2i.

The AC power adapter for your T2i is the Canon model ACK-E6. It's available as an optional accessory purchase.
