Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?

The Angenieux what now?? You mean the 24-290?

The announced Sony lens is impressive in scale, but as you noted it's not fast, and the lack of consistent iris throughout the range makes it (for me)...

Weight of lenses

For folks coming from the DSLR world, cine zooms are going to be a shocker in every way--cost,...

Re: Tripod head from one company, legs from another?

I'd rather have a better head than legs, if I had to make the choice. You can more easily "hide" the effects of wobbly legs than a sticky head. I have an O'Connor 1030 on Sachtler lightweight legs,...

Re: Ki Pro Mini and heat - is there an issue?

Thank you Jon for the thoughtful response.

This event occurred above five weeks ago and I certainly had no intention to immediately jump onto numerous forums and scream "nobody use Ki Pro Minis!...

Re: Ki Pro Mini and heat - is there an issue?

Jon:

It was in this thread (http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/sony-xdcam-f3-cinealta/502012-ki-pro-f3-problem.html) but after I posted, Nick Hiltgen pointed out that that was referring to the Ki Pro...

Note: I moved my post and the three responses from another thread into this one as it describes a very similar issue to what William has experienced. Because they are older posts, they appear in the...

Re: Ki-Pro F3 problem

As hinted above, yes, I wanted to protect the possibility of going untethered. In the first two weeks I had a Steadicam shot that stepped on and off a crane, and two dollys doing endless rotations on...

Ki Pro Mini and heat - is there an issue?

For my Comedy Central series, we settled on using the Ki Pro Mini's as our recorders with the F3's. The idea was to record the 4:2:2 log output of the camera, then run that video into Blackmagic...

Re: C300 Discussion

If you watch the behind the scenes for "Max is Back", you'll see it in use for their handheld setup. This was the rig I played with at the Canon event. I'm a vocal proponent of articulating...

re: C300 Demo: Mobius by Vincent Laforet

There is one ideal way to judge the quality of a camera against others in the marketplace, and that is to shoot properly designed tests (or view someone else's). I don't intend to make any decisions...

re: Shooting with the F3 on "Key & Peele" for Comedy Central

Yes, today is day one for the DP4's and I feel like they will integrate much better for us.

It occurs to me that a lot of users here might read this thread or even just look at the picture and...

Re: Digital Camcorder Hall of Fame - Who Gets In? Why?

After that, the DVX100 for the 24p factor, and the HVX200 for solid state recording and overcranking.

Re: New Firmware Updates and New "EI S-Log"

I recently saw the result of a "one size fits all" LUT applied to rough cuts of my footage and it was frustrating. No bueno.

Re: Canon USA Introduces EOS-1D X Digital SLR Camera

I think that post Nov. 3rd, the discussion regarding the 1DX is going to dry up somewhat (he said, dryly!)



Chris, it's fairly self-evident that the options you presented in terms of playback...

Re: Canon USA Introduces EOS-1D X Digital SLR Camera

and to clarify and add to Dylan's post, prior to the DSLR's we never saw HDMI outputs; every pro HD camera used the HD-SDI standard. So working within that standard, you will need an HDMI convertor...

Re: Canon USA Introduces EOS-1D X Digital SLR Camera

Don, I'm assuming you are referring to the 1DMKIV setup.

So, if I stripped this down to the 1D and lens (in this case the Zeiss ZE, what would be different? In terms of the actual image quality,...

Re: Canon USA Introduces EOS-1D X Digital SLR Camera

Actually Chris, I generally have MORE stuff hanging off my DSLR than we currently have on the F3, and that will be even more exaggerated when the pending firmware update with the F3 occurs (capturing...

Re: New Firmware Updates and New "EI S-Log"

I shot camera tests with the F3 in s-log and with the various PP and saw firsthand how the s-log retained highlight information better. Sold me hard on the viability of the camera. Enabling 422...

Re: Mounting a Zacuto EVF on the front of the F3

I have always--ALWAYS--found Noga or ballhead mounts useless for monitor and especially viewfinder mounting. The reason is that when you want to tip the monitor a few degrees in tilt or pan, or the...
