Re: Have we taken Wedding Fims a step too far?
My guys and I talk about this all the time.
When we started, we each had 1 camera and 1 tripod. So, on the wedding day, there would be 3 of us each with our camera and tripod. Then we added 2...

Re: Amazon Drive with unlimited space?
A friend of mine backed up pretty much all of his stuff to Amazon. If I recall, his upload took about a month of continuous uploading!
On Charter internet we get 5 Mbps upload speeds.

Re: Noob Ax100 questions
You may want to check your local Best Buy. I typically never buy from a box store like that, but they do have open box items, and as I noted somewhere else on here, I picked up an open box CX900...

Picked up a Sony CX900 for weddings and events.
I've had my eye on this one for a while but was having a hard time paying the $1,300 for a new one.
So a buddy of mine was able to get an open box one in Nashville at Best Buy for like $760 in...

Re: Timelapse of audience arriving at an event.
I haven't done a lot of timelapses, but I know the ones I have done, 5 seconds between shots is a lot of time, and depending on how long it takes to fil up the place, it may go by way to fast.

Re: Free Recital DVD's for Dance Teachers/Staff

But - for me, I cram everything onto 1 disc that sometimes maxes out at 2 hours long. I use Kunaki to do all my duplication, so for 10 extra discs, it's a...

Re: 6 cameras for a wedding?! Ideas?

Re: My latest try! lol
Thanks for the compliments guys.
Noa, yeah it was shot for 16:9. I always forget that I'm going to add the bars in post for the highlight reels and such. So it wasn't perfect.
Yes solo shoot....
