I have both
The camera DOF apps are pretty good. Pcam is very good and Photocalc is not as powerful but a good value.

Thanks Guys for your help

I agree with all you have written here. I paid like $5k for the Letus package and it is only 3 months old. I understand the Canon is not a replacement, but I figure if I used it for interviews and...

This is the kind of feedback I need. I am not selling the EX-1. I love the camera, but the purpose of going with the Letus is the DOF features it brings to the EX-1. I though the Canon might be used...

I converted these in XDCAM Transfer. I hope I still have them on the card. If so, I will give him the raw file, correct? If I have blown them off the card, all I have is the QT file. Any suggestions...

Everything is plugged in correctly.
I think it is going to boil down to just playing with the settings. I shot some stuff tonight and it did look pretty good. It would be good to exchange settings with other EX-1 users who have the...

Just got an 85mm lens today
Wow. It is old and used, but clean. Old Nikor. Got it off Ebay. Good price. It sure is neat doing those 60 Minute shots and blowing out the background.
