I posted the other day but something happened and my post apparently didn't go through I just noticed.

Wow, that must have made editing really tough!

You know, I find it REALLY ironic that the StillMotion team has steadicams and brevis and all this cool stuff, but not ND filters. That just made me...

I shoot without presets as well. As much as I like what some of the presets can do, I prefer to have the image flat as well.

Absolutely love the colors in this. You're shooting on A1's, right? Are you using a preset or just making adjustments in post?

Personally I would never shoot a single-cam wedding, but that's because I don't ever want to be in a situation where I have to explain to a couple that we have no footage because the camera died or...

I understand you intended for the bride to not be seen talking, but it still feels awkward to me. Just my opinion, though.

As for the vow audio, the problem for me was more that you could hear it...

For some reason last year I seemed to keep getting couples where the groom was a foot to a foot-and-a-half taller than the bride. I mean, taller is fine, but jeez. It sure does complicate...

I actually don't use a preset when I film because I'd rather have a flat image to work with in post as it's generally a safer route in my humble opinion. I have several on the cameras, but just...

Overall a nice job. Now for the nitty-gritty you asked for.

It felt really awkward to hear the bride reciting her vows and see a shot of her onscreen and she's not talking. Then you switch to...

I mix A1's and an HV30 and you can match them pretty closely. However, I do most of the matching in post. I prefer to shoot my A1's without a preset, so I just match up exposures as best I can, and...

Okay, well, in my unscientific test I couldn't see a difference in grain between the two, although I could tell that one was slightly darker. Because of that, I decided to just stay at "0" since I...

I checked these out. A few were promising for me, but mostly it just didn't fit my style. I like sweeping full scores that have a common theme between the tracks. That seems nearly impossible to...

For a 3rd wedding you are doing a very good job with shooting and editing. I'll get right to the "helpful" thoughts.

Randy, I've noticed a number of people using "-3" for their primary gain setting. Why? Does it give you a clearer image when you're shooting with plenty of light?
