Re: A light but effective steadycam for GH5?

That is very kind Paul and yes, practice with Steadicam is definitely the most important factor in getting down the basics. Really, it's almost two sets of skills: the mechanical aspect of managing...

Re: Steadycam

That's pretty much the deal, Pete, you nailed it.

Steadicam has never been a skill that one just picks up in hours or even days--it's more like months and often years, depending on how good you...

Re: ATEM Television Studio HD is now shipping

Well, SDI to HDMI converters are just about literally dime a dozen these days! Blackmagic's own micro-converter is $85 and there are plenty of cheaper ones that work just fine too.

Re: Light theory in dark spaces

That's pretty much it. I like to shoot my dark scenes about 2/3 - 1 stop brighter (opened up) from where I will ultimately want them to play, so we have some room to bring up faces or any given tone...

Re: Turn your old "hot light" Fresnel into a "cool" LED with Visionsmith ReLamp

Andrew, I may be mis-interpreting your post but it seems like you are suggesting that the reason for bi-color is to (attempt) to match other sources. For me it is more about the creative choice of...

Best accessory for an ATEM Television Studio is the Decimator MD-HX, which scales any format to the requisite 1080i the original ATEM switcher requires. The new version of the ATEM has a wide range...

Re: Steadicam Docking Bracket - What's your story?
