Re: Will 4K cameras be practical for weddings?
For weddings, today - right now - 4K is, without question, practical. You may have a different question, but for me: 1 4K camera = 2 HD cameras. Just do the math and use the tools that help you...

Re: 70-200mm 2.8L IS + C100???
Well, it's finally back! The lens seems to be in good working order with my C100 now. 37 days, counting weekends may be normal - but it felt like forever! Oh yeah, that's not even counting the first...

Re: 70-200mm 2.8L IS + C100???
Thanks for chiming in, Paul.
I haven't been able to find anyone else who *does have the issue. I'd love to co-miserate but apparently I am the chosen one.

Well, that didn't fix the issue. Despite being certain that it just *had to be the 70-200mm, it isn't. They're escalating this to some ENGs to see what they think before we ship everything (as in...

Waiting for FedEx to deliver the "fixed" lens...it seems if they can't find you on a Saturday, they wait 3 more days to punish you.

Re: 70-200mm 2.8L IS + C100???
Lens is v1, and I've sent it in for a check up. I put this video together to show them, but they didn't need it. I don't think I've discovered anything new and unique - it's a very popular lens +...

70-200mm 2.8L IS + C100???
My 70-200mm 2.8L IS works great on the 5D. Having just acquired the C100 DAF I was excited to try the lens. Turns out it's possessed. Sometimes it will work a bit, but eventually the iris locks at...

Re: PF24 to 24P work around, C100 & FCP X
Technically I don't actually know, but it's interesting that the actual conversion sucks more than the on the fly conversion. And that may be b/c of the settings. Here's a screenshot where you can...

Re: C100 doesnt stop the DSLR pose
I actually enjoy/prefer this behavior.
It keeps people from acting stupid. If they think you're "making a video" (I mean "Who Needs a Movie!") then acting up suddenly seems appropriate. For me,...

PF24 to 24P work around, C100 & FCP X
So for my first test shoot with my new C100 I, for reasons I still cannot comprehend, used PF24 for the framerate with a 59.94 system set.
That's just the dumbest thing you could do, for most...

Re: Shutter speed choice for C100 PF
I probably won't do anything with it, actually. FCP X will just make the timeline conform to the video; I have already used a sharpie to black out PF24 on the LCD to make sure I never, ever choose...

Re: Help with C100 exposure
I agree with Al - use the waveform; assign it to more convenient button. It's spot on. Of course I've shot for 40 minutes with my new C100, so you might not want to believe me - try it.

Re: Shutter speed choice for C100 PF
As I sit and stare at a bin full of clips 29.97fps of my brand new C100 test footage, I'll admit, I'm a little stunned - at just how stupid 24PF is...I'm glad to have my gut confirmed. Not that big...
