Re: Alter dinner rehearsal background?
Hey Bill, another thought -- after you've got your mask (and it doesn't have to be precise, because of the feathering), blur isn't the only option to de-emphasise the background. You know, can also...

Re: Another Mk3 or the C100?
Eric, I'm not sure about my claim! I find it hard to compare sharpness in your test because of the way it's cut, because you're shooting different objects, and because you dared to use real-world...

Re: Alter dinner rehearsal background?
Have you tried the roto tool in After Effects (I think it was introduced in CS5)? Works surprisingly well.
If that doesn't work, maybe just a crude mask with the mask tool isn't out of the...

Revisiting this old thread (in which I think I've made several inaccurate statements, and, as usual, several quite silly statements, but anyway)...

Re: First C100 Wedding
Incidentally, Art -- beautiful images. Your work is always amazing. Apologies for giving in to the temptation to discuss cameras instead of craftsmanship.

Stop motion
This isn't my work, but had to share -- I thought it was brilliant. Stop motion videos by Michael Kriesch. Got to love the dancing accessories:

Re: First C100 Wedding
Hey Art, have you compared the lowlight ability to a Mk3, or are you using Mk2s? If so, is it a big improvement?

Possibly a card issue, you're right. But there was one wedding where it seemed to happen with both my Yamahas at the same time, so that would mean at least two cards! Ah well... Will just keep...

Re: Replacement for faithful Irivers
The Rob Adams recommendation is Roland R-05 + Tram TR-50. The Roland is $170 at B&H, and I think it's basically as good as you're going to get in terms of a recorder that size. The Tram is about $240...
