Yes, but if you'd previously edited a sequence with the Field Dominance set to Upper, changing the clips to None in the browser does not affect the sequence. The clips there will still be Upper. You...

Yes, I noticed that. You need to select up to 100 clips in the timeline, then go to Item Properties --> Format and change them to "None." Or is there a way to paste this attribute to clips in a...

Kevin, brilliant. I've just tried this. As you suggest I changed the clips to dominance none in the Final Cut Browser. I created a new sequence with no field dominance. I compared it to the same shot...

Just on the topic of "bad copies," this is a very interesting read. It's usually not the glass itself but rather other aspects of manufacture that causes flaws in lenses. Sometimes it's the camera.

The 70-200 f/2.8 I is gorgeous but a tad soft wide open (not as sharp as the f/4.0 at equal apertures). Apparently this is one of the things addressed in the Mark II, according to a Canon rep Kevin...

Thanks Aaron, yes it's pretty tricky. There are some issues with pans and tilts but the violent shaking is the wind.

T2i Macro-Crop

Hey all, I hadn't seen this combo before, and as I was perusing my B&H order I thought, what would it look like to shoot on the T2i crop mode with a macro lens? (The new Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro.) The...

Ryan, are you sure that setting dominance to none is correct? I've done tests and found that doing so added to the "jaggies" or stair-stepping associated with the aliasing done by the 5D. Or it may...

If you import a raw .264 file, Final Cut will also report the Field Dominance as "Upper." Maybe someone with more knowledge can explain why, but this is a known behavior of Final Cut. The footage...

Not sure if it helps, but on the 5D2 you can get rid of the box by setting autofocus to face detection. The drawback is that you lose the ability to magnify the image before recording. Don't have my...

Do you mean that Final Cut defaults to sequence settings that seem "interlaced"? It would be helpful if you'd post a cap of your sequence settings. For example, this is I think pretty standard for a...

In my experience, aside from aliasing (which in most shallow DOF shots is minimal), it's a pretty good illusion if it is just an illusion. Could you post a link to the "proof"?

Paul, do you have a 24 1.4? I do and it is breathtaking. Even compared to other L-series lenses. Tack sharp with gorgeous bokeh. It's so odd that L-lenses are routinely bashed and yet professional...

Not conjecture at all. Aliasing is everywhere in all Canon DSLR footage, unless it's an out of focus area. You notice it most where there are straight lines. But you can see it everywhere - as if the...

I see it as a tease for RAW video. If the 550D can output an SD crop, I'm betting the 5D Mark III will be able to do 1080 crop. Give Canon another 12-18 months and the 5DIV or 7DII will do RAW. Just...
