Re: How To? Panning replacing-subject-matter shot?
It's relatively inexpensive these days to be able to do repeatable pan-and-tilt moco shots, as encoded heads have become quite a bit cheaper. Varizoom and Kessler both have models. I owned one some...

Re: Gemini 4:4:4 ARRIRAW Option
John, I think we are in complete agreement.

Here's the numbers:
