Re: Nikon Technical Service Advisory for D600

Re: Nikon at nab 2014
I shoot with a D600 and have to agree - the images (and color) are fantastic! My clients don't care what name is on the camera - they only care about great video. From a functionality standpoint,...

Re: Anyone tried one of these...
This looks like a great idea, our DSLR uses SD cards and I would prefer to have a common stockpile. Please let me know if you try one, and if it fits inside the MRC1?

Z5 focus issues - advice?
I seldom use my 2010 Z5U since we began shooting with a DSLR rig in 2013, but it has very low hours and I still use it to record long format meetings and "run and gun" events. In March at a dinner...

Re: GPU question - Quadro or GTX?
Regarding the PSU - I replaced the OEM Dell PSU in my Studio XPS with a standard issue Corsair 600w model without any problems whatsoever, so I'm hopeful the same will be true for the 8700.

Re: Nikon D610
All video cameras suffer from some level of aliasing, moiré and flicker. It's the nature of the beast. We've always used tools like shutter speed and frame rate to overcome these challenges...
