Re: Maintaining highlights with dslr's outdoors
Just my preference, but I think the 3rd looks the best. The 2nd example looks like "shadow/highlights" and/or neat video were used? True, you can regain the highlights details, but it looks less...

Re: Lens use for glidecam/merlin?
I do not have a 2nd shooter currently, and am considering a steadicam. The above responses are useful. I'll probably try my Sigma 20mm 1.8 first. I'll obviously want to practice a ton before using it...

Re: Family Session Videos?
I agree with the comments. Maybe if I did one for a friend, offered it as a service, just to see if the interest was out there. Because I mostly film one-take events (weddings, etc.), it just seems...

Re: Family Session Videos?
Or let me add a question. Even if you're not filming these, do you think there'd be any interest? Getting my feet wet a little would be the only way to know for sure, but just thought I'd start here...

Re: Help with DSLR Focusing
Depending on the lighting, I can get away with aperture at 16 or 18, if I keep my iso around 800. Helps a ton with the depth of field!

Family Session Videos?
The thing that initially got me into wedding videography was editing photo/video shorts of my now-wife and I when we were in college. I'd just take a camera with us most places, and if it seemed...

Random questions in the form of a questionnaire
Ok, it's time for another questionnaire! As always, I'll compile them after a few days into translated results.
1) How often do you film with a 2nd shooter?
2) How many cameras do you use for the...

Re: Senn. G3 Static
Sure thing. This example is from a wedding Saturday. This noise was more of a popping static than what I described above. One thing I noticed about this example is that I didn't have any issues when...

Senn. G3 Static
I've got a Senn. G3 with a tiny static problem that I wondered if it was fixable. Right now, I've got them set up on the same channel (of course), and it's picking it up loud and clear. The only...

Re: Can't Burn Blu-Ray
Thanks for the reply! I should've mentioned in my original post that I start the program with Run as Administrator, and have also tried burning an ISO into Nero and IMGBurn.

Re: Senn. G3 with JuicedLink box
The cable from the sound board was just a standard 1/4" cable, with a mini adapter, to the transmitter. The receiver used the mini-to-XLR that was provided by Senn. Now I'm sort of worried that I...

Re: Tripod skipping on pans?
It is a physical problem (vs on the camera). I had the same issue yesterday. I see the three screws you are talking about. I'll tighten them up today and play around with it a little bit. Thanks!

Tripod skipping on pans?
I primarily use a Manfrotto 501HDV head Manfrotto with 190xProB legs. Although it does not happen with consistency, often when I am panning, the head will all of a sudden skip (or jump). It only does...

What's the longest lens you use?

Re: Josh and Katie - Highlights
Thanks Greg that means a lot! I just shoot with a T2i and primarily use either a Canon 50mm 1.4 or a Sigma 20mm 1.8. For grading I use Magic Bullet Looks - gotta love the Warm Spot Focus filter!
