Re: Psychological Effects of Video Editing
I seem to recall hearing that our brains just aren't made for focusing and concentrating constantly for more than maybe 45 minutes, and it may have been less than that.
It's one reason films have...

Re: Keeping focus on full frame
The 70D does too much hunting and pecking, and is very noisy with on camera mics. I just bought a triple shoe adaptor that I figure I can turn sideways so one shoe is sticking forward, over the...

Re: First Wedding - advice for a solo shooter?
Totally forgot about the 12 minute time limit! We have Magic Lantern installed on our 5d Mark ii, so it hasn't been an issue since we bought it. I presume that would be an option on the 6d and T2i...

Re: First Wedding - advice for a solo shooter?
Adrian is right. More detail is needed to know what to do.
First, plan your audio well. We use 3 pocket recorders and/or lavs to cover 1) the groom to guarantee the vows, 2) lav on the pastor...

Re: Samsung"s NX-1
4k, for me, is about being able to crop in post, and for weddings, would be amazing for an aisle camera.
Mostly, I want more dynamic range, and better info/detail (10 bit or more), and better low...

Indeed. Though a wedding date, for us, has value. Especially for popular times of year, the closer to the date, the less value it has IF the client were to cancel on us, since our chance of...

Re: Explaining your reasons to a bride?
As a DJ/MC, I'm always paid before I start, since I have no value once the event is over.
For videography, I understand if someone prefers to wait until afterwards, but I would still insist on...
