re: New Canon Cinema EOS C200 and 200B
I've been waiting to upgrade from my c100 mk1 and this is likely my next cam. I'll let the haters tear the specs apart first and see how the C200 holds up under the intense scrutiny.

Re: Waveform and Audio Meters c100
I know what you mean Barry... I love the c100 and I shoot tons of run and gun. I find that my eyes are tricked more than my ears, so monitoring audio via headphones is the best work around that I...

Re: What is CRAFT?
I remember back in 2006, when RED just had a pic of a race car on their webpage, with a 'coming soon' note. Lots of calls about 'vapourware' then.
The difference though was Jim Jannard had deep...

Re: C100 mark ii or C300?
I have the c100 original, and while it's nice to have the ninja option, it can be a pain to drag the ninja around. But after watching this comparison by Gary Huff, I have shot a few things in AVCHD,...

Re: C100 Mark II with Ninja
Thanks for this Gary,
The ninja can be a clunky thing to drag around and lots of times I'd rather just shoot internally. Though I haven't figured out how to get FCPX to split the AVCHD clips - and...

I didn't know Dylan had a Ronin there. I may try one after all. I usually end up buying most of the stuff I need because though I'm only 20 miles or so from downtown Vancouver - it's...

Re: Lens for C100
canon 17-55 f2.8 IS... almost the only lens you need - in my humble opinion. I take my 50mm f1.4 along and sometimes my 70-200 f2.8 non-IS... but really the 17-55 is fast, has IS, and covers a pretty...

Re: C100 and white balance
Kathy,
If you're forced to shoot in that kind of light, you could pick up a couple decent daylight balanced, dimmable LED panels, and a bounce card or two and kill the florescents. I have some...

Re: C100 and white balance
Agreed... there are some situations where you just have to dial it in and live with it. I found the worst lighting to be those streetlights that you couldn't stop from being yellow no matter what.

Yes... you can see the kelvin temperature scale change if the lighting changes... But if the light changes, you have to re-balance anyways. In this case you're just trusting it to the camera... If...

Personally when dealing with mixed sources with the C100, and run and gun, I've found the AWB to work pretty well.... usually better than me. Which I rarely did with my 5D, or my other cameras. If I...

Re: Canon 5Ds
I'm really looking for a good hybrid. The C100 almost does it - expecially the mark 2 - if only I could get better than 1920x1080 jpegs. I was dragging around a 5D2, and a C100 last week trying to...

Agreed, it would be crazy data rates... and would likely need some kind of SSD capture. It would be nice to have like the RED compression options. As far as media cost goes... the RED...

Re: Canon 1DC Price Drops $4,000 on 2/1/15
I fully appreciate what Jim Jannard has done to push digital media forward - we may still be shooting HDV otherwise - but RED gear is epic-ly priced.
