Mac Pro expresscard reader

Something that doesn't shoot to the same specs will always mean "dumbing down" the EX. If there is an option to rent on occasions needed that may be your best bet. Having two different cameras (one...

You might consider using a warmer light, either the LED with a gel or a tungsten lamp. It will warm up the skin tones. A flag or scrim out of frame over the head of the talent will reduce some of the...
