I believe the image you were talking about is the one where we were trying to highlight the LED light that illuminates whatever you are working on. So probably yes the focus was intentional.

More screen grabs

Landscapes is where the lack of resolving power starts to be a disadvantage. HOWEVER the HVX would be about the same as these, with less dynamic range.

More 7D shoots

So Phoenix went well. The 7D was exactly what we expected going into it, pretty. Is there are much detail as a "pro" HD camera? no. Does it really matter? no. The perceived detail when the DoF is...

Focusing was simple on the SmallHD, really high res. I did have to use the magnification button on the camera on wide shots, but this was probably because our AD wanted lens data for her notation and...

Why would it change a -competent- DP's thinking? Knowing the limitations of the tools you use would be a part of being competent.

We used a 24-70 2.8 and a 20 2.8. On the interviews I had my AC go to f2.8 but for any action I tried to keep it around f4 to get a little more of the action in focus.

After using an HVX200 with and without various lens adapters (Redrock and Cinivate) as well as H1 and HD100's and Ex1 and Ex3's I must say this little camera is great. No backfocus issues to contend...

Not sure I quite agree. Having shot with lens adapters like redrock and brevis I would say that the 7D is MUCH easier than those setups, and much sharper with no vignette. For run and gun, maybe not,...

ProRes will hold up far better to color/graphics than hdv, and it takes up less processing power. The flipside is drivespace.

Do a search here, prores isn't perfect, but it's far better than hdv.

That workflow is a bit wonky to me. Why on earth would you go to an mp4 and degrade quality on yet another transcode?
Try this basic workflow:

If anything ever turns funky on my suite, a dose of applejack usually fixes it, it's such a great program.
Glad it worked for you as well.

Not on a downconvert. It will -I've found- if there is no conversion. However I've had friends have no luck with 24p material.

Didn't work

Blast! Qtpro did not work!
Any ideas? I think it's rediculous that Qtpro won't play dvcprohd files. Is this a fcs only codec? Would MPEG streamclip play it?
