Re: Multiple camera operators at ceremony
When I first started out fliming weddings in 1999-ish, there were 3 of us shooting with 4 cameras during pretty much all wedding ceremonies. Obviously 3 were manned and 1 was unmanned. The way we...

29 Minute Max Recording Time.
I'm curious, has anyone out there recorded to the max 29 minute continuous limit with a D800 (600)?
I'm wondering about heat.
Last year, I shot a July 4th event that lasted about 1 hr and 15...

Re: Desktop/Laptop Brands for NLE??
If you're not going to build one yourself, you can go with a custom builder like Puget Systems.
Out of all the custom builders I've looked at in the past, they seemed to have the most...

Re: NX5 replacement in 2012?
I have really enjoyed using my NX5U for the past 2 years. I'd love to see an upgrade for it.
Maybe this will be the year! Hopefully sooner rather than later in 2013 for that matter.

Re: Sony HXRNX5U for weddings ?
I've been using the NX5 for about 2 years now and have been relatively pleased with it.
I've never tried to match it to a Canon DSLR, so I can't comment on that.
The best part for me is the...

Re: Owning Single Camera vs. Multiple Cameras
Indeed, you could almost buy an XF300 and XF100 for about the MSRP of the XF300 alone.
That was really a shocker to see if for $4995.
$1,500 off is pretty sweet.
Just a few weeks ago, Nikon...

Re: SanDisk Extreme Pro UHS-1 64GB SDXC Card
I'm not sure. Seems like maybe since the FMU is 128 GB and the NX5 records to that, it should be able to?
I can see where this card would be useful if Sony upgrades the NX5U to do 4K video. LOL
