Re: Camera options other than GoPro/DriftCams etc?

Thanks for the explanation David.

Unfortunately, as you say, this is a problem that will plague all cameras in this group. Maybe check out some of the small 1/3" CMOS handycams, as these will...

Re: EF Lens Quality for 4K

Keep in mind also that with any L lenses or full-frame lenses used on the C500, you're cropping out the edges of the lens and only using the centre of the lens, where the glass is sharpest.

Re: Camera options other than GoPro/DriftCams etc?

The Contour range of cameras are designed for the same kind of purposes as the GoPro, but every camera of their's I've seen footage from has had severe CMOS skew to the point of being unusable for my...

Re: GoPro Dive Housing

Thanks Drew.

I think GoPro's own housing is definitely the best - and cheapest - option for me. I won't use filters because I'll be shooting above the water as well, and underwater I'll never be...

Re: GoPro Dive Housing

Good to know! I figured that the flat port design would work as well above or below water becuase it it really no different than having your GoPro naked and shooting through a window, but there's...

Hi everyone,

I'm looking at adding the new dive housing to my GoPro kit, and wondering if will work underwater only or if it will be able to shoot clear, sharp footage above the water as well....

Re: Warp stabilizer for wind shake

The warp stabiliser is an awesome tool and will surely be able to steady your footage significantly. However, if you're shooting on a CMOS camera then rolling shutter will cause some problems. What...

Re: Canon USA introduces EOS-1D C Digital SLR camera featuring 4K

Pete, I've regularly shot weddings, sports and events on DSLR's, as have many others. To me, shooting surfing, a shoulder-mounted camera useless. So, as you can see it all comes down to personal...

Re: Extreme Sports Documentary

If you're going to focus on 3 people and the 3 different types of kiting, make sure you ask each of the subjects what they think about the other types of kiting. That way you introduce some opposing...

Re: vegas to ppro?

I tried that at first, but the problem I ran into was that the same features from Vegas are not necessarily assignable to shortcuts in Premiere. So, I ended up with a half-cooked shortcut set that...

Re: Crop Factors and Nifty-Fifties...

Yes, you get the angle of view of a 100mm lens.

But what you have is not a 100mm f/1.8, it is a 50mm f1.8 with a cropped view. The two things are very different - a true 100mm f/1.8 would have a...

Re: FS700 Prices Revealed

Mark & Pete, have either of you seen the Australian Pricing yet? I have a bad feeling it will come in at around $12-15k locally.

At least being a world model with 50/60hz switchability means we...

Re: vegas to ppro?

A really great place to start is by learning the keyboard shortcuts. Do whatever you ave to do to get used to them - read them before bed, print them and stick it to the back of the bathroom wall,...

Re: Canon T2i instead of small camcorder

As Jon said, these cameras are perfect for interviews. Lovely ability to control DOF and isolate your subject.

As an alternative to an XLR adaptor, you might want to consider an audio recorder...

Re: how to view available memory on t3i

On both my 550D and 60D, If I push the Q-menu button it will display the recording time remaining next to the recording format. I'm guessing the t3i should work the same way.

If it's specifically...

Re: Any "POVers" going to NAB?

What's the sense in having zebra's when you can't adjust exposure anyway? Espesially considering that probably 90-95% of people don't even use a LCD backpack with their gopro

Re: Trouble with CS5.5

Paul, if you have ever dragged a clip from the source moniter to the timeline, you have used an overwrite edit. Perhaps you mean you haven't ever used the keyboard shortcuts to do this?

I wonder if purchasing CS5.5 Production Premium now and getting the free CS6 upgrade deal will allow you to download the new programs in the suite, Prelude and Speedgrade?
