Re: Martial Arts video shot on the 7D - my first time playing with 60p on a DSLR
Nice stuff! I love Martial Arts stuff and you do an awesome job of moving around and hitting the great moments. My only critique is the length. Too many of the same type of shots I think.
I tried a few things with some 60p martial arts footage and added in some motion blur back in to the normal speed stuff (60p frame dropped to 24p) mixed in with 60p slo-mo adn some time-remapping. It did soften it a little but the fast action made up for it. well done. |
Re: Martial Arts video shot on the 7D - my first time playing with 60p on a DSLR
Ryan, thanks for your feedback. It did get really long. I was originally aiming for 60 seconds but I really wanted to get the slow vs fast thing in there a few times. I wonder how I could have done that with a shorter video. Maybe chop the song up.
What did you use to add motion blur? Could you add sharpening to fix it or would that just cancel out a lot of the blur? |

Really liked it, and this was with the sound down (Im at work and sneakily reading the forum). Just out of interest, was the speed ramp into the realtime shot at 60p, slowed to 24p for the slow-mo, then sped back up to 60p to go back into realtime speed ? Hope that makes sense.

Holy crap! I did NOT know this about Parfocal/still lenses. What about the Canon L series 24-105? Maintains focus throughout zoom or no?

Re: Martial Arts video shot on the 7D - my first time playing with 60p on a DSLR
I don't have any experience with the Canon L-Series 24-105 f/4 but I would presume that it is parfocal for two reasons:
1. It's L Series lens 2. Assuming you have shot with the lens wide open, it would be surprising if you haven't noticed that it's NOT parfocal. |

Up until now I've been telling everyone I sped it up to 120% but I think I was so sleepy and delusional the night I was editing that I forgot that I actually used 115%! |

Thanks Graham. The technique has been used really well. The faster shutter gave the sparring real energy.

"wide open" on that lens is f4!
