Re: C100 and handholding
Andrew,
The lens has to be switched to auto focus in order for the camera to be able to adjust it. If you push auto with the lens in manual nothing will happen. But set your camera setting 'AF...

Re: Canon 1DC Price Drops $4,000 on 2/1/15
Thanks for the 1DC tip Kyle. I may seriously look at that. I love my C100, but this week I was shooting video to Pro Res with the C100, and RAW stills on the 5D2. Shooting Stills and Video on the...

Re: C100 and handholding
I use push focus and peaking all the time... so yes the lens has to be set to auto. I trust peaking more than my eyes. And I like shallow dof, so I often use ND to open the iris a little more. I...

Re: C100 and handholding
Scott,
This is a more affordable version by DJI that you might want to look at if you like the MOVI but not the price. I've been considering it, but really need to try it out first.

Re: Modifying Internal ND filters on C100
I suppose that would be an advantage to the drop system... you could stack them... but I would just drop the ISO down to 400 or 200. I would for sure do that before hacking into my built in ND's......

Re: Modifying Internal ND filters on C100
How about mounting a 4x4 filter holder on the front, to hold drop in filters. Much faster than screw on filters. I had one years ago for stills. Something like this

Re: C100 and handholding
Kathy,
I use the push auto focus button to confirm focus - you will have to center your subject, then drift off center for preferred composition, but it works. But I spent a full 5 years...

Re: C100 and handholding
Same. But I put the neck strap on, and around my neck and pull it tight. I used to do this with my 5d2 all the time. With a wide or an IS lens - it holds up pretty good.
The zacuto rig looks like...

Re: Taking the plunge with $10,000
Hi Scott,
Another vote for the EF-S 17-55 f2.8. It's my most of the time lens for the C100. Not sure why you would want to hand hold all the time but the IS on this lens is nice. I do find it ok...

Re: Canon C100 with 24-70 Lens
