Re: MK III Quick Control Button
I watched Philip Bloom's review of the camera last night and he showed how he uses the Q button to adjust the audio levels while recording, so it can be done. It must be a setting in the menu that...

Re: Samyang
Tariq,
I have the Rokinon 85mm 1.5 lens on my 5DM2 and really like it for interviews. It has a long focus throw and is very sharp. The only draw back that I find is that it doesn't have a very...

Re: 5DM2 and VAF-5D2 filter
I think that someone on another blog tried it with the new Rokinon (Samyang) 24 1.4 lens as well as the Sigma 24 1.8 lens and said that they both worked fine. I don't have the Canon 24 L to test out...

Re: 5DM2 and VAF-5D2 filter
Keith,
If you were to shoot with a fixed prime lens you wouldn't have any problems. I find that the focus issues show up on the wide end of zoom lenses.
I would think that the filter would be...

Re: Time lapse questions.
Bruce,
I think that Alex has his math right on this. Make sure that you are shooting JPEG and not RAW. You will need to fit all the stills on one card, unless you want to take a chance and...

Re: 5DM2 and VAF-5D2 filter
Jon,
Thanks for the feedback. There are many pros and cons with the filter. I love being able to shoot video and not worrying about the "fine details" causing problems later on when I go to post....

5DM2 and VAF-5D2 filter
I have been filming for the past week in Brazil trying out the VAF-5D2 sensor filter. If you don't know about this product, here is a link to their website.

Re: 5DMK3 Question
Sorry Les, but I think that you are wrong on this point. The M3 now does HD output via HDMI (though not a clean signal) when recording. This is a big fix on the M3.
I had budgeted to get a 1Dx...

Glen,
I guess my comment was not fully accurate, though if the F3 is "professional", then the FS100 would be more "consumer", especially with the cheap body build on the camera. The line is very...

Re: Vibration Compensation??
Andy,
Any lens that provides some sort of image stabilization when shooting video is a good thing. Even with your rig you will have some movement. $200 is a good price compared to what some of...

Re: 17-55mm f/2.8 IS for 5D Mark II
Exactly!! The 24-105 lens is perfect for the 5DmII. I also use it on the 7D and like it much better on the 5DMII. I agree about shooting at F4 because the sensor on the 5DMII is so huge. The...

Re: sync drift: which FCP setup for 23.98?
This is a known problem with the Zoom recorder. I have noticed it with files shot with my Canon 7D. I have now gone to the Tascam DR-100 which doesn't seem to have the audio drift problem.
Now I...

Re: new and vintage 50mm lens tests wide-open
Likewise, A and C.
I am curious to see what your results were. I have an old Nikkor 50mm 1.8 AIS lens that I love shooting with on my Canon 5D. It has such great character.

Re: SmallHD Dp6 (aka DP-SLR) pre Review
