Re: Online Advertising
Leon, what blog sites are you referring to? I'm not familiar with those... all I've seen are like the wedding shop sites we've been discussing here.
Thanks!

Nikon V1 + FT1 for video.
Last Thursday, I got my used FT1 (Adorama $149) and began playing around with it on my V1.

Re: Dance Recital Video Pricing
I have yet to find a good digital distribution model for things like dance recitals.
Too easy to copy.
Plus I don't think too many folks would be ok for paying to watch it 1 time.

Re: Nikon D610
I borrowed a D610 a few weeks ago from a friend to try out, and I must say, the lack of aperture control during filming wasn't as big a deal as I thought it would be.
This is because you still...

Re: Dance Recital Video Pricing
To me, $10 seems high.
As noted above, the most I've ever given was $3/copy for a recital.
For marching band competitions, we'd do $5 to the band boosters organization.

I've not noticed any hiss on setup with that mic.
Now, if you're shooting outdoors and getting wind noise that's a different animal.

Re: Best setup for frame rates
I went from 60i to 30p.
I like 30p better personally. I shot one in 24p as an experiment earlier this year and didn't like the way it looked. Going to stick with 30p personally.
