Re: Your RAID solutions.
Hi Noa, that's pretty much what I thought too. There are Red Pro and Red and the pro spins at 7200 and the Red at 5400. I know a RAID 5 increases speed but not sure if it's enough to make up for a...

Your RAID solutions.
Hi everyone,
I'm looking at setting up a RAID 5 solution as I'm rapidly running out of space and I have poor data redundancy solutions right now. I'm on Windows, not Mac.
Looking at various...

Re: Rant: Warp Stabilizer
I think it's fine to use occasionally - I apply it to remove small shakes quite often, and I'm not saying it's perfect, but generally you can't tell it's applied and I adjust the settings as best I...

Rant: Warp Stabilizer
I'm sick of seeing this plastered all over footage. It's a last resort to correct footage or used lightly to smooth jitters in certain shots (such as travelling over a slightly bumpy road etc).

Re: Live Event Broadcasting
I dabbled briefly in live streaming. Just fed capture cards into a PC and that was that. As Andrew says though, switching/mixing costs more!
I did have a look at the Blackmagic ATEM switcher at...

Sounds reasonable, Peter.
If I was in your situation I'd make the most of the time they are away and get tons of shots of everyone else. Father of bride, mother, grandparents etc. I find the...

Re: 2.35:1 and Vimeo
Thanks! But that's 6 years old and uses FCP!
Like Noa, my camera lays 2.35:1 guidelines that I shoot with.

Re: 2.35:1 and Vimeo
Yeah, I think I was using the oEmbed function and the template (Uncode) was doing something weird with it. I guess I'll have a chat to their support. Thanks.

Re: 2.35:1 and Vimeo
Yeah, except that one has letterboxing going on! I think the issue I have is that for wedding highlights I release as a cropped 2.35:1 and for other things where I'm not trying to be cinematic, I do...

2.35:1 and Vimeo
Just wondering how people go about this? I edit with letterbox guidelines and then crop the footage when it comes to exporting. This means I don't get black bars in the thumbnails which I prefer. Is...

GH4 and weddings!
Does anyone shoot on one of these and have some wedding footage they'd like to share? There is the possibility I may purchase one after the 'GH5' comes out.
Cheers!
