ok
files are hosted at Filefront (it is evidently a bit of a pain to download, but...)
http://dashboard.filefront.com/bentoon/

I'll keep uploading them & others.
So far all files are 1080/60i,
some are deinterlaced in Qtime.

It is a pain focussing through Canon's veiwfinder - I need to get a small on cam monitor, so patience to with my focussing...

I will get to 24f clips & some tests with Winston Vargas' 70mm adapter soon too,
cheers,
J

Much appreciated, John! I'm glad that Winston is still putting things together -- I had the pleasure of meeting him several years ago, he had a wicked GL1 set-up. I'll try to find those photos.

(Hello Winston if you're reading this!)

I did Have to contact Quyen and he instructed me how to fix the BACK focus for the adaptor.. after the backfocus was fixed... well you be the judge.. alot sharper.

Hi Shane,

I was curious what you used for lighting in those two shots? It appears to be just the light from a monitor.

Shane Valdez April 20th, 2006 10:35 AM

Correct! Just light from my G5, I'm looking directly at the screen.
