Hi Alex,

I'm sorry to say it didn't really grab me. The edit doesn't flow and it feels disjointed.

"Corduroy"? Well, that's a new one on me, I've never heard a camera/optical fault described like a pair of slacks.

I'll take a wild guess that it's chromatic aberration. Can you post a still? We...

You can plug in an external monitor via component.

If you want a small lightweight solution, I'd recommend Swit.

You can get by with that - I shot a 45 min doco last year with three 40 year-olds Nikkors, still check ebay and see if you can pick up a cheap 85mm or 35mm.

Good luck.

My advice, based on more than twenty years making films and videos is buy your mac, buy FCS, stop worrying and start making something. After a week you'll wonder why you ever procrastinated.
