Re: Exposure lock
You do shoot in Manual mode right?
I really wouldn't depend on something like AE Lock for setting your exposure. Your best bet is to use the histogram and use that reading to set the exposure...

Re: Exposure lock
Check page 171 of the manual... I don't imagine this is something that will help much in video mode though... I would avoid anything that contains the word "Auto" in it

Re: Iris noise in Video mode
Ben, are you concerned about recording noise while adjusting the iris? That part of the video likely wouldn't be very usable anyway since the iris will "jump" in 1/3 stop increments. You won't be...

Re: feeding zoom h4n into the 5D (attenuator)
Exactly...
Seems to me that pumping extra money into equipment that won't produce a difference that you can see or hear without having to do a side by side comparison doesn't make a lot of sense.

Re: feeding zoom h4n into the 5D (attenuator)
I fly solo a lot myself for interviews etc... using the 5DM3, I get audio that is good enough. There is a little hiss but it is easy to get rid of and a little EQ makes it sound nice and full. To me...

Re: FS700 and FPS question
Agreed!
If you are using a light meter on a video shoot, you should check it against a waveform monitor or histogram anyway. Light meters can be very useful for working out lighting ratios without...

Re: FS700 and FPS question
t-stops are simply f-stops that take into account the internal light loss in a lens. No lens transmits 100% of light through to the sensor/gate, and every lens is different... some are less efficient...

Re: Max ISO setting 60d/7d
There's no doubt that the 5D will do better in low light. The still frames won't do the test justice since the grain will "dance" in the video and be more pronounced. The 5DM3 (I know you don't won't...

Re: Max ISO setting 60d/7d
Great low light performance is one of the main reasons I upgraded to the 5DM3 from the 60D. You can rent these cameras pretty cheaply, I would recommend trying one out if you are considering a...

Re: Magic Lantern & HDMI Output
Sure thing!
If you plug directly into a HD monitor, it will fit the screen properly... the built in LCD is a different shape (not 16:9) since it displays the HD image as well as OSD data. The odd...
