Re: Shooting interviews, 1 camera or 2?

If there is time to do more than one take, I often do interviews using only one camera but using various different lenses or a single zoom lens.
Just film the scene and record similar questions &...

Re: Sony A99 with impressive video

The biggest problem with the Sony A99 (and earlier A77 version) is that it only allows autofocus in video mode when the aperture on the lens is set to widest aperture, so is redundant most of the...

Re: Portraits: Use GH2 or purchase 5Dmkii ?

I use the Canon 5D Mk2 but I expect the new GH3 will also be very good for stills (combined with video of course).

Re: Canon EF 300mm L, f4 & f2,8

I find AF pretty good with the Canon 2X converter. I even use it on the Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 OS (latest image stabiliser version) and it works great for stills (although I use manual most of the...

Re: Aerial videography - to handhold or monopod

Without a doubt, handheld (or shoulder brace) is the best. I wouldn't use a monopod at all. Stills images don't need IS lenses (just fast enough shutter-speed), but IS can help with video footage.

Re: Excellent BMC - Canon Mk III comparison

Re: GH3: Buzz buzz b-buzz

Lee, if you need small size and weight, the GF-1 and GX-1 are great cameras in a tiny packet...and the GX1 performs very close to the GH2 in terms of video and stills images (or the G3, which has...

Re: you CANNOT zoom with the GH2

ALL stills cameras, not just Panasonic, that are fitted with a non-fixed aperture lens will 'flicker' during zooming in video mode. The light passing through the lens cannot be expected to remain the...

Re: Nikon D4 Passes but the D800 Fails the EBU/BBC Broadcast Quality Test

It would be far easier for the BBC to actually accept videos on the quality of the final product that is sent to them, not on judgement of the tools used to capture the footage.

It might make a decent underwater camera because it will fit nicely in many smaller housings and also cheaper (quality) housings could be made for it. The camera would also make a nice 'spare' camera...
