Re: Help with my first Wedding shoot
I've found myself having the same experience. I will normally have 5-6 audio sources to work with, but end up trashing all but the groom's mic (which I end up using for the vast majority of the...

Re: how much gear is too much?
I shot a ton of weddings from circa 1995-2003, and for the most part hated it. Two giant shoulder-mount cameras in hard cases (you had to wheel each around), two extremely heavy tripods, multiple...

Re: how much gear is too much?
I'm all about simplicity. I'm not into the slider fad, and I own a steadicam but never take it along -- I've never had the desire to use it at any shoot (other than personal film projects). I use 4...

Re: Website
Exactly! You beat me to the post. I make far more per hour as a web designer/developer than as a video guy.

Re: How important is Syncing 2 cams via BNC
This is actually how I sync everything up, usually 3 cameras and at least 2 other audio tracks. Just eyeing up and then making small adjustments from there, nothing too technical or involved. It...

Re: Website
I'd agree that it's highly advantageous to stick with WordPress. A common misconception is that it's only for blogs. In my "real" job, I design and develop tons of WordPress sites, almost none of...

Re: ordered 20mm from adorama
I've been using the 20mm pretty exclusively for indoors, and it's worlds better than the 14-42mm. However, I'll still use the kit lens for some outdoor work, especially since I have that small amount...

Re: Need Opinon from the Pros on System
If you get stuck on anything, I may be able to help. I just built a system (for the first time ever), and learned a lot along the way. It's really not as hard as you may think.

Re: Please recommend a Dell for CS5.5
Jon,
What's your budget for this? Dells run the spectrum.
I just had a Dell, but cannibalized some of it when I built a new computer. It was one of their Studio desktops. All in all, a reliable...

Re: wedding camera
That price range makes it a little tricky . . . I would maybe suggest the Panasonic TM900. It's a little over $800, but I've been hearing great things about it. Small, sharp, good in low light.
Or...

Re: I hate the "I want it all for nothing clients"
Usually the reception is when I try to do ring shots, because there's usually at least a little bit of down time at some point. Plus you can usually find some nice background/foreground elements to...
