Thanks Charles, for watching some of my vids.

I am guessing the 50 1.4 is a good buy cause it is not very expensive and probably is a good portrait lens. I have a 50 1.4 Nikon which I plan to use...

7d picture settings

Does anybody have suggestions for tweaking the settings of the camera for a slightly flatter look that might be better for grading. I know this is not nearly as tunable as my EX-1, but I know many...

Looks good Ben. Nice job. Like the color effects in the field stuff.

One tip (as I am suspecting that you used 2 EX-1s for at least some of it): it looks (especially in the stage stuff) that the...

Not calling Stillmotion a professional firm is NUTS.
