Re: over both shoulders
What is the circumstance that you need both hands free that much of the time? That implies that you would have the camera locked to your body (like the picture shows), which will limit the amount of...

Reverse telecine (24p to 60i) question
Have some footage that was shot 24p that needs to be matched to a 60i program. Any thoughts on best way to conform it? Something that can interpolate the missing fields to alter the motion cadence?...

Re: Low Light Film Look
Nice job.
I wouldn't call this a "low light" look as the faces are at exposure--I'd go with moody, contrasty or low key.
For my taste, I think you could have pushed the light back a little...

There's a lot of ground to cover here, but suffice to say that it's a good plan to have a deal memo in place for any job. If nothing else, it removes any possibility of confusion later...

No Louis, this is a full-frame lens. Perhaps you are confusing it with the 11-16.
Jason, I have been shooting with this one for about a month and am very happy with it. I have the previous series...

I don't know if there's still any question about the professionalism of clothespins/C47's/bullets, but if it helps any...be assured they are the weapon of choice on every feature and TV show.

Re: 5D versus 1D for lowlight filming

I haven't seen breathing in my ZE's, at least that I've noticed. I believe they deliver the same performance as the CP2's on that level (I've shot with both).
The main difference between the Z...
