Thanks Bill,

I've pretty much memorized the manual by now. There's just no substitute for making tweaks, going out to shoot, and then making more adjustments. I've had two shooting sessions with...

Let me clarify...

I always shoot full manual, use ND accordingly, and trust my zebras.

Out of the box the camera blows out the whites very easily- defined as very little latitude.

I'll go...

Received New A1- have questions about latitude & pre-sets

So out of the box the set-up is pretty terrible in my opinion, but I'm used to it as it's pretty much par for the course with all new cameras.

I'm trying to set the camera up for the most latitude...

ENG Lens compatibility

So people are reporting (thanks for the post Pete) that the Z7/S270 won't control the servo zoom on Canon/Fuji ENG lenses. This is pretty much a disaster considering that the camera is sold based on...

That's definitely one of (if not the) best battery money can buy. Just to give you an idea, just one of those powers my camera AND my light for about 3.5 hours of run and gun. Without the light I...

David,

BR-HD50 can accept standard size cassesttes (as opposed to mini) so you can avoid the "stitching" of files.

Bottom Line is that I was entertained. They actually sound like the Grateful Dead's early days.

Can't tell much about the camera just because it's You Tube.

This is the first I have ever heard of this little QT add on.

Does this mean one can now import M2T files into FCP? Or is this just a QT viewer thing.
