Often you'll see this technique used to induce "Oooh's" or "Aha's" by showing the viewer something new in the frame. Also it's handy...

Don,
The XL1 (and XL1s) will not do the same quality job in theatrical lighting settings as the bigger 1/2" or 2/3" 3-CCD cams (ex: Sony DSR500) but it can do a pretty good job with some setup and...

Janet,

As someone who has both the RTMac and the Dazzle Bridge -and- has just begun using FCP 3 during the past few days I'd have to think -real- hard about getting the RTMac again. FCP 3 on a...

With the price of gargantuan Firewire drives plummetting it's hard to argue with the economics of using one for a hot backup. If your "IBM drive" is a 75 Gb DeskStar I'd recommend looking at using...

In addition to what everyone else offered (which I agree with, as an XL1 owner also) I'll also add that it does a pretty good job with sound control, particularly when you add the MA-100 adapter for...

Vic,
I, too, have been surprised when using an LCD external monitor. ("Nuts, where did THAT pole come from?!") Both my Marshall and my Varizoom seem to clip even more severely than a...

Daniel is correct. Rack-focus is, indeed, shifting the focus between a subject in the foreground and one in the background. Implicitly, the subjects are just outside the normal depth of field for...

Paul is correct. What you see in the viewfinder is pretty much the full frame that you'll see on your NLE's monitor. The feature that Paul referred to is called "underscan" which enables the tiny...

Chris & Mike,
